Irrigation & Drainage
The System Working Behind the Scenes to Protect Everything You've Built
In Arizona, water is the most valuable and most mismanaged resource on most residential properties. The average homeowner applies twice the water their landscape actually needs while simultaneously watching monsoon runoff erode their yard, pool on their patio, and threaten their home's foundation. At TotalScape Pros, we design and install complete irrigation and drainage systems engineered specifically for the East Valley's desert climate, clay soil conditions, and intense monsoon seasons. Whether we're installing a new smart drip irrigation system that cuts your water bill by 30–50%, repairing a broken sprinkler system that's silently wasting hundreds of dollars per month, or engineering a full yard drainage solution to redirect monsoon runoff away from your foundation our licensed crew handles every phase with the precision your property deserves.
Our Core Irrigation & Drainage Services:
New Drip Irrigation System Installation: Complete design and installation of smart drip irrigation systems that deliver water directly to root zones eliminating the evaporation and overspray waste that traditional sprinkler systems cause. Properly designed drip systems can reduce outdoor water use by 30–50% compared to conventional sprinklers, making them one of the highest ROI upgrades for Arizona homeowners.
Smart Irrigation Controller Upgrades: Installation of weather-based and sensor-driven smart controllers that automatically adjust watering schedules based on temperature, rainfall, and soil moisture ensuring your landscape gets exactly what it needs and nothing more. A critical upgrade for Chandler and East Valley homeowners dealing with high water bills.
Sprinkler System Installation & Repair: Full sprinkler system design, installation, and repair for turf and grass areas including head replacement, valve repair, zone troubleshooting, and system retrofits for properties across Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale, and the greater Phoenix East Valley.
Yard Drainage & Grading Solutions: Precision site grading and engineered drainage system installation to redirect monsoon runoff away from your home's foundation, patio, and hardscape. Arizona's intense summer storms can dump inches of rain in minutes without proper drainage, that water pools against foundations, erodes landscaping, and causes costly structural damage over time.
French Drain Installation: Subsurface French drain systems installed to capture and redirect groundwater in areas where surface drainage alone isn't enough particularly important in Chandler's clay soil zones where water absorption is slow and pooling is common.
Irrigation System Inspections & Seasonal Tune-Ups: Full irrigation system audits including valve testing, emitter flow rate checks, pressure regulation assessment, and controller programming — ensuring your system runs at peak efficiency year-round through Arizona's extreme seasonal temperature swings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get the facts about our process and what to expect when working with TotalScape Pros.
How much can a drip irrigation system save on my water bill in Arizona?
Studies consistently show that properly installed drip irrigation systems reduce outdoor water use by 30–50% compared to traditional sprinkler systems. In Arizona, where outdoor landscaping accounts for up to 75% of total household water use, that translates to significant monthly savings — especially during the peak summer watering season. TotalScape Pros designs each system to match your specific plant zones and watering needs for maximum efficiency.
What causes yard drainage problems in Chandler and the East Valley?
The two main causes are Chandler's clay-heavy soil — which absorbs water very slowly and causes surface pooling — and Arizona's intense monsoon storms, which can deliver several inches of rain in under an hour. Without proper site grading and a drainage system engineered for these conditions, water pools against foundations, erodes hardscape edges, and saturates landscaping. TotalScape Pros designs drainage solutions specifically for East Valley soil and storm conditions.
How do I know if my irrigation system needs repair or full replacement?
Signs your irrigation system needs attention include unexpectedly high water bills, dry or dead patches despite regular watering, visibly broken or misting sprinkler heads, water pooling near valves, or an outdated controller that can't be programmed seasonally. TotalScape Pros offers full irrigation system inspections across Chandler, Gilbert, and Scottsdale — we'll tell you honestly whether a repair or replacement makes more financial sense for your property.
What is a French drain and do I need one in my Arizona yard?
A French drain is a subsurface drainage system — a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe — that captures groundwater and redirects it away from problem areas. In Chandler and the East Valley, French drains are particularly effective in yards with clay soil where surface grading alone can't move water fast enough during monsoon events. If you're experiencing persistent pooling near your foundation, patio, or lawn, a French drain is often the most effective long-term solution.
Can you install irrigation for both turf and desert plants in the same system?
Yes and this is actually the recommended approach. We design multi-zone irrigation systems with separate valves for turf areas, desert shrubs, trees, and garden beds because each plant type has different water needs and watering frequencies. Grouping plants with similar water requirements on the same zone is a core Arizona irrigation best practice that prevents both overwatering and underwatering across your landscape.
