Lawn irrigation is the process of getting water to your lawn, grass and all, for it to grow. There are five main types of lawn irrigation methods:

• Manual irrigation puts you in charge of the flow of water. Using a sprinkler head on your hose is best to evenly distribute the water across your entire lawn. This doesn’t take much time but requires you to be physically outside holding the hose. 

• Above-ground sprinklers attach to your hose and rotate or oscillate around your lawn. Since these are above-ground, they’ll need to be moved when it’s time to mow, and depending on the size of your property, you might need to move it around your yard for full coverage. 

• In-ground sprinklers are flush with the ground when not in use but pop up above the ground level when it's time to water the lawn. Piping for these sprinklers is all found underground, and there are different types of sprinkler heads for different uses and lawn sizes. 

• Drip irrigation involves drip lines that are more efficient than sprinklers for more extensive lawns. This involves a lot of digging since they are installed underground, but it makes it easy for you to mow.

• Rainwater collection and irrigation uses nature’s precipitation to water your lawn. This option might not be available in every area since semi-reliable rainfall is needed, though the barrels for this system can range from 15 gallons to 10,000 gallons or more.

It depends on your specific gardening needs. While a soaker hose provides a quick and affordable fix for smaller planted areas, drip irrigation systems are far more customizable and give serious gardeners the opportunity to create watering zones for plants with different needs. However, drip irrigation systems come at a higher upfront cost and take more time and effort to install than soaker hoses do.

Most sprinkler installation companies can get your system installed in one day, especially if they use trenchers and other machinery to speed up the process. However, it could take two to three days if you have an exceptionally large property or if you need lines and sprinkler heads running through garden beds. In that case, the labor will take longer to dig longer lines or to use manual tools to excavate in the more delicate areas. Your professional should be able to provide you with an estimated project timeline during the planning stage.
