Irrigation & Water-Wise Landscaping
Black Diamond designs and installs irrigation systems in Salt Lake City and across Salt Lake County. Services include sprinkler systems, drip irrigation, hydrozoning, and smart controllers sized and configured for the specific property. Black Diamond also designs water-wise landscapes — using appropriate plant selection, hydrozoning, and xeriscape principles — with lower water requirements in mind.
Irrigation and water-wise services
Sprinkler system design and installation
Rotor, spray, and MP rotator systems designed for uniform coverage, proper precipitation rates, and zone separation by plant type and sun exposure.
Drip irrigation
Subsurface and surface drip systems for planting beds, trees, shrubs, and vegetable gardens — delivering water directly to the root zone with minimal evaporation.
Hydrozoning
Grouping plants with similar water needs on dedicated irrigation zones reduces overwatering, improves plant health, and lowers water bills.
Smart irrigation controllers
Weather-based and soil-moisture controllers that automatically adjust run times based on local conditions — reducing water use without sacrificing landscape health.
Xeriscape and water-wise design
Landscape designs that reduce or eliminate supplemental irrigation through appropriate plant selection, mulching, soil amendment, and efficient water delivery.
System audits and upgrades
Evaluation of existing irrigation systems for coverage gaps, head-to-head spacing issues, pressure problems, and controller programming — with targeted upgrades to improve efficiency.
Water-conscious planning across the complete property
Effective water-wise design considers the full property — driveway geometry, planting zones, surface materials, and circulation — not just individual beds.
Water-wise installation in progress
Water-conscious landscapes depend on coordinated grading, planting zones, soil preparation, irrigation planning, surface materials, and long-term maintenance considerations.
Irrigation systems are installed during landscape construction — before final grading and planting — for clean routing, proper coverage, and long-term serviceability.
