The Groundhog Difference

Not all irrigation companies are built the same. Here's what sets our process apart.

🧠

Assessment-Led, Not Sales-Led

We don't sell systems over the phone. Every quote follows an on-site evaluation of your soil, water pressure, sun patterns, and existing plant health.

👷

Direct Crews, No Subcontractors

The people who design your system are the ones installing it. W-2 employees, fully insured, background-checked, and trained in-house.

📸

Photo Documentation

We photograph every zone before backfill. You'll have a permanent record of exactly where every wire and pipe is buried—forever.

🔊

Silent Operation

Premium Toro and Hunter components. No rattling valves. No hammering pipes. Your system runs so quietly, you'll forget it's there.
