Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
Use the square footage pricing. For a basic system, multiply the total square footage by the lower end of the "Basic" tier ($1.54 per sq ft). For larger or more complex yards, consider the "Mid-range" or "Premium" tiers ($1.85–$2.45 per sq ft) to account for additional materials and labor.
Smart controllers typically push a project into the "Mid-range" or "Premium" tier. Factor in the cost of the controller itself and any additional labor for installation and programming, considering that "smart controller pricing" is a key component of overall costs for upgrading systems.
While some companies charge as high as "$2,200 per zone" for premium installations, it's often more accurate to price based on square footage and system complexity. You can explain that more zones are generally required for larger areas or varied landscaping, which naturally aligns with the higher square footage pricing for Mid-range or Premium systems.
Costs can vary by location. While Waleska's typical range is $1.54–$2.45 per sq ft, other areas like Augusta, GA, show project costs between "$1,723.64 to $3,447.28." Always confirm local material suppliers and labor rates, which for irrigation professionals in Georgia generally fall between "$45 to $100 per hour."
Propose a phased installation if possible, addressing critical areas first. Clearly explain the limitations of a basic system for a complex yard and offer the "Basic" tier ($1.54–$1.84 per sq ft) for essential coverage, emphasizing that upgrades or additional zones can be added later as budget allows.
