How Does Your Irrigation System Save Water?
Irrigation systems have been used by civilized society for thousands of years, which has given us a lot of time to refine and improve the way we do things. Modern day irrigation systems don’t just deliver water where it’s needed most, they save water too because of the precise distribution control less water goes to waste!
Without giving too deep of an explanation your irrigation system will save you water because it’s strategically placing the water on your lawn or garden using a computerized controller that routes the water through the appropriate zone and distributes it using special sprinkler heads. A properly installed irrigation system will be able to evenly distribute the water so that none is wasted.
A properly setup sprinkler system will water your lawn and garden more efficiently without wasting water on places it’s not needed such as hardscaped surfaces like a driveway, a sidewalk or patio.
Our goals when installing an irrigation system on a customers property are making sure we’re distributing the water efficiently to the zones that require it. We also make sure the system is designed to operate trouble free and will be easy to maintain for our customer in the future.
How Do Sprinkler System Zones Work?
If you’re not familiar with irrigation or sprinkler systems yet, you might have heard the term “irrigation zone”. When planning and installing your lawn or garden sprinkler system we’ll be dividing your property up into zones. By zoning your property we are ensuring that Zone A (or Zone 1) is going to receive X amount of water for X amount of time and Zone B (Zone 2) is only going to receive Y amount of water for Y amount of time. There could be many zones depending on the complexity of your lawns, gardens, and landscaping.
The establishing of your sprinkler zones allows your sprinkler system to discharge precise amounts of water for fixed periods of time depending on the particular needs of that section of your property. This reduces water usage significantly, while still keeping your lawns and gardens vibrant and healthy.
Solving Complex Irrigation System Problems
Do you have an existing irrigation system in place that is inadequate or not functioning properly? This is one of the reasons it’s important you choose a sprinkler company that employs certified irrigation technicians. There are a number of un-qualified irrigation companies providing sprinkler system services to customers but when the contractor decides to cut corners you don’t know about (because it’s underground and you can’t see it) it’s going to cost you money down the road. It’s not cheap to dig up and repair a poorly installed sprinkler system.
Common Problems We See With Sprinkler Systems:
- Incorrectly installed sprinkler heads
- Using the wrong type of sprinkler heads
- Timers running for too long
- Sprinkler zones not coming on when they are supposed to
- Underground pipe leaks
- Poor and inefficient sprinkler layout

How Much Will a New Irrigation System Cost?
That is the million dollar question right there! It’s impossible to give someone an accurate or even ball park price for their sprinkler system installation over the Internet. There are just too many variables that must be factored into our equations. For that reason a site visit and consultation is really the only way (and best way) to move forward.
During a site visit we’ll be taking accurate measurements, getting a feel for the lay and size of your land and taking note of the different plants, trees, and grassy areas that require watering. We can determine how much water is needed and for how long. After we’ve got these little details an accurate estimate can be put together for you rather quickly.

What Our Clients Say...
We strive for 100% customer satisfaction through prompt communication and following through on our promises
The White Oak crew are made up of really exceptional people. I had the great joy of working for them for a few years, and really got to experience what it’s like to work with attentive, creative and kind people who strive to do solid work. The creativity, quality of work and professionalism that White Oak has cultivated in their team I think really elevates their services beyond what most landscaping companies out their can provide. If you go with this company, you’ll not only be provided with amazing landscaping care from fine-gardening and construction experts, but you’ll also be working with true collaborators who actively listen to your needs with great humor and kindness. Many years after moving on, this company still stands out as an amazing work experience for me due to those qualities. Whatever your garden goals are, White Oak is a great example of a company that helps you meet them with collaboration, outstanding professionalism, and expertise.
I recently enlisted White Oak Landscape to enhance my yard as part of the preparation to sell my home in Beaverton, upon recommendation from my real estate agent. I was thoroughly impressed with their prompt, professional service and attention to detail. The team transformed the yard quickly and efficiently, creating a clean, polished look that significantly enhanced the property’s appeal. Their pricing was fair and competitive, reflecting the quality of their work. I highly recommend White Oak Landscape to anyone seeking reliable, high-quality landscaping services.
We are so grateful for all the hard work done by Taylor and McKinley to provide us a future sight blocker between our house and the neighbor's deck. They were very efficient in planting the 6 arborvitae including checking and adjusting depth of the holes and adding fertilizer to ensure a good start. Max worked within our time frames and kept us looped in on what day they would be arriving. I highly recommend White Oak for any of your landscape, etc needs 😊.
We’ve been using White Oak for years at our home in Oregon City. They’ve helped us design and construct some very special and intricate landscapes, exceeding our expectations. We enjoy working with Max and Kate and all the rest of their crew immensely.
We had a great experience with Max & the White Oak team! They listened carefully to what we wanted to accomplish, right-sized the solution to the problem (in our case, planting a front yard but not adding a retaining wall), brought a lot of knowledge to plant selection, and left the yard looking fantastic. We'll work with them again!
We love our landscaping by White Oak Landscapes! They were easy to work with — responsive and very considerate. They adapted their design for our yard based on our preferences (low maintenance) and constraints (budget), and provided helpful advice on what plants work best for our yard and how we might best care for them. We’ve received numerous compliments from our friends and neighbors on our front yard landscaping and would recommend White Oak to anyone.
Amazing people and built the most incredible landscape and water feature / natural swimming pond.
Sixteen-year-old pressure treated garden steps were failing and we were looking to get them replaced with the same thing. Instead, White Oak Landscaping suggested a better material that looks gorgeous. Once we got on the schedule, Max and Kate arrived and within hours we had a beautiful set of steps to our vegetable garden. A list has been drawn up for future projects and we hope to be able to collaborate with them again.
The White Oak team has been our go-to landscaper for many years. We have always been very happy with their services.
Very nice people to work with. They were very conscientious about our existing lawn and plantings. Even though they needed to do a little digging around the repair areas, I could hardly tell it was disturbed. I love the way the sprinkler work and cover the lawn area now. It’s never looked better! Thanks!!
Max responded to my sprinkler repair request promptly and arrived exactly when he promised. He fixed the problem perfectly and even did a follow up call to verify that the system was working well. I highly recommend White Oaks Landscapes!
White Oak took my very utilitarian needs/ideas and created a work of art! When I step outside I feel like I’m out in nature, not in a suburban backyard. Max and Kate and their whole crew were a pleasure to work with.
Would highly recommend working with Max and his team!
After hours and hours trying to figure out why one of my irrigation zones wasn't putting out enough pressure, I called Max at White Oak. Wow, 2 hours later not only had he isolated the issue and fixed it, they replaced my old heads with new ones, increasing the coverage over my lawn. Most important for me, was his description of all the other yard work they offer. Trimming, edging, mowing, fertilizing, weeding......on and on. Thanks so much, I will be using them into the future. Highly recommended.
We were so happy to find this great landscaper. Good communication and nice to work with. We wanted some work done on our overgrown front yard and mentioned another project. They gave good suggestions and grouped it all together into one fairly priced job. They squeezed us into their schedule and did the work in one day. We were so happy we immediately requested another job, which they did the following week. The gravel settled and was a little low, but they had no issue topping it off and smoothing it out, which they had anticipated needing to do. We will definitely continue to use them for all our landscaping needs. Thanks for being so great to work with!
WOW!!! I got an early Christmas present. Taylor and Noah prepared my gardens for winter. I had not been able to weed 2 of them for over a year due to some health issues. They did a super clean up job. Will definitely use them next Spring to replant one or two of the gardens. Thanks for making my day!!!
We had White Oak develop a full front yard landscape for us, and Max and Kate were really responsive to both our landscape needs and our budget. The work was done very quickly and there was never any question about what things were going to cost. Looking forward to doing more work with them in the spring!
What a great and professional team. I’ll be recommending grandiflora to all my neighbors.
Max and his team greatly improve the landscaping around our home in NW Portland in preparation for listing it for sale. From a design perspective, he had a wonderful strategy of where to focus on a large property to maximize value. The installation and irrigation was done correctly and without issues. The new gardens showed really well, were easy to maintain during the sales period, and we more than recouped our landscaping investment with Grandiflora Gardens.
I’ve never seen such professional and aesthetically minded landscapers. Lex and Zach knew their equipment (and used it SO efficiently!) that I could trust their work at an extremely high comfort level. Our job was not done as early as expected, but it was because of a very wet spring and our location/soil type. If I had the money, I’d hire this company for all my landscaping needs. They suggested good options for situations, and let me choose the option I liked, even when it wasn’t their favorite. Great company, and incredible staff.
Max not only gave me the most reasonable bid for the job, but he did great work and returned as soon as the system needed some tweaking. Outstanding customer service!
I had a great experience with Max from Earth, Water and Wood and would highly recommend hiring them. Max was professional, prompt and incredibly knowledgeable. I hired him to help out with a broken sprinkler head. He was able to fix the problem quickly and then did a full review of our sprinkler system and made some recommendations and changes to improve our system's efficiency and cut down our water usage costs. I highly recommend hiring Earth, Water and Wood.
Max and his crew are great! We've been working together for about 8 years now and my garden is a testament to his knowledge about plants and trees. Everything is thriving! He's easy to schedule with, he and crew are friendly, knowledgable people, and I feel very comfortable having them work around my house. I highly recommend them!
Max, the owner of earth water and wood has been absolutely fantastic with communication and did an amazing job with Lighting in my front yard. I highly recommend and will be using his services in the future for all other properties that need landscape care or lighting needs.
Our HOA property (River Royal Terrace) is fortunate to have found Earth, Water & Wood to rehab and care for our gardens and lawn. Max, owner, has been proactive in designing and carrying out his vision. His crew is exceedingly friendly and knowledgeable. We look forward to Spring's beauty and continuing this relationship. Thank you EWW!
I highly recommend Earth, Water & Wood. I had some difficulty finding someone who would take care of basic mowing for my lawn in Milwaukie at a reasonable price and I finally found it with these guys. They do a great job at mowing but not scaring my lawn and have great crews that come to do the work. I will definitely follow through and use them again next spring when lawn season starts up again.
