A Healthy Landscape Starts With the Right Water Plan
New England weather can shift on a dime. Long stretches without rain are followed by stormy weeks that flood lawns and gardens — and your shrubs, plantings, and lawn pay the price either way. A well-designed irrigation system takes the guesswork out of keeping your property green, healthy, and stress-free year after year.
For more than three decades, Cole Landscaping has helped homeowners and businesses across the North Shore and Southern New Hampshire install, service, and maintain irrigation systems that quietly do their job — so the rest of your landscape can thrive.
Every Stage of Your Sprinkler System, Handled by One Team
From the first design conversation to your annual fall blowout, Cole handles every phase of your irrigation system in-house. No juggling vendors. No finger-pointing when something goes wrong. Just one team that knows your property.
Design & Installation
Custom-designed irrigation systems sized to your property, soil type, and plantings — installed cleanly and built to last.
Spring Startup
Each spring, we pressurize, inspect, and tune your system head-by-head so it's ready for the growing season.
Fall Winterization
A proper fall blowout protects your system from freeze damage. We drain every line so nothing cracks when temperatures drop.
Service & Maintenance
Broken head, leaking valve, or controller acting up? Our team diagnoses and resolves issues quickly so your landscape stays healthy.
In-Ground Sprinkler System Installation Built for Your Property
No two yards are the same. Sun exposure, slope, soil drainage, plant beds, lawn type, and water pressure all change how a system should be designed. We don't drop a generic layout into your property — every Cole installation starts with an on-site walkthrough and a custom plan.
A properly installed system pays for itself: lower water bills, healthier lawns, and the time you get back not dragging hoses around in July. We work cleanly, restore disturbed turf, and walk you through the controller before we leave so you're never guessing how it works.
Spring Startup & Fall Winterization
Spring startup is more than just turning the system back on. We slowly pressurize the lines, inspect every zone, check for damage from the winter, adjust spray patterns, and confirm your controller schedule fits the season ahead. Skipping this step is the fastest way to end up with a flooded flowerbed in May.
Fall blowouts are non-negotiable in New England. Water left in irrigation lines freezes, expands, and cracks pipes, valves, and backflow preventers — turning a $100 service call into a multi-thousand-dollar repair. Our team uses commercial compressors to fully purge every zone before the first hard freeze.
Cole clients are scheduled automatically each spring and fall through our concierge-style service — no calls to remember to make.
Sprinkler Service & Maintenance When Issues Arise
Even the best-built systems need occasional attention. Heads get clipped by mowers. Valves wear out. Controllers lose their programming after a power outage. Pressure drops in one zone for no obvious reason. When something's off, our service team is on it.
We service the irrigation systems we install, and we're often called in to take over neglected systems from previous installers as well. Whether your system needs a small fix, a smart-controller upgrade, or a full audit, we'll diagnose the issue and walk you through the options before any work happens.
We also handle smart irrigation upgrades — controllers that adjust schedules based on weather data and soil moisture, often paying for themselves in water savings within a season or two.

One Landscape Partner. Every Service. Every Season.
When Cole installs your irrigation, we're also the team that maintains your lawn, designs your hardscapes, prunes your trees and shrubs, and clears your driveway in the winter. That continuity matters — your irrigation team isn't fighting your lawn team, because they're the same team.
It's why so many of our clients have been with us for decades. Whether you're starting fresh with a new system or finally fixing one you've been frustrated with for years, we'd love to talk through what's possible.
