You can try Eco Irrigation, 256-5356 Ask for Mike Sanders. I worked for him a bit one summer on some irrigation jobs. He's a nice guy and does good work. I'm sure he would be happy to come out and give you a quote.

Do it yourself and save some money. Very, very easy. (depending on how much you need!) You can do a basic yard (front and back) in a weekend with the timers and valves.

Rain-Bird is the best.

^^True you can do it yourself. Its not too bad if you rent a machine which buries the pipe for you (can't remember the name). Parts are relatively cheap and easy to put together. The electrical isn't too bad. The only thing is the plumb in, I would recommend hiring a pro for that.

i did my own last summer and it was actually pretty easy and straight forward...you can save yourself over half by doing it yourself over a few weekends

Regency irrigation has a one day seminar on weekends for the do it yourself types.

Regency Seminars (http://www.regencyirrigation.com/education.htm/diy_sem.htm)

Went to one about 10 years ago - it was pretty good value then.

I have used them for parts and such ever since (keep expanding my yard plantings) and they've ALWAYS been extremely helpfull.
