Drip Irrigation System Design & Installation

At Petrus Landscape, we design and install high-performance drip irrigation systems that protect your landscape investment while reducing water waste. As a leading luxury landscape design company serving estates across the Bay Area, we understand the unique challenges of California’s climate—from drought conditions to seasonal water restrictions—and we build irrigation solutions that keep your gardens thriving year-round.

Whether you are renovating an existing garden or building a new outdoor space, our expert landscape designer develop systems tailored to your property’s plants, architecture, and microclimate to deliver efficient and lasting results.

Why Choose Drip Irrigation for Estate Landscaping

Las Olas Atherton Luxury Landscape Design Project

Drip irrigation systems deliver slow, controlled water directly to plant roots, minimizing evaporation, runoff, and overspray. This method is far more effective than traditional spray irrigation, making it ideal for lawns, perennial gardens, native plantings, and hillside landscapes.

Benefits of Drip Irrigation Systems

  • Reduces water use by up to 60%

  • Improves plant health and deeper root development

  • Prevents oversaturation, pooling, and fungal issues

  • Ideal for drought-tolerant and native plants

  • Complies with California water efficiency standards

  • Protects your investment in luxury landscape design

Every system we install is engineered for long-term performance and easy maintenance, integrating seamlessly into modern estate environments.

Custom System Design, Built for Your Property

Site evaluation and water pressure analysis
We assess your property’s layout, irrigation needs, and water pressure to ensure a system built for accuracy and efficiency.
Mapping of planting zones and root needs
Each planting area is mapped so every plant receives the right amount of water based on size, location, and root depth.
Installation of drip lines, filters, and pressure regulators
We install professional-grade components that deliver consistent water flow and protect the system from clogging or damage.
Integration of smart controllers and sensors
Smart technology adjusts watering schedules based on weather and soil conditions, reducing waste and improving plant health.
Testing and seasonal performance tuning
We test the full system and fine-tune water distribution seasonally to keep your landscape thriving year-round.
Site Analysis & Planning
We begin with a detailed site analysis to evaluate your terrain, drainage, sun exposure, and existing architectural style.
Material Selection & Customization
From natural stone to porcelain pavers, permeable gravel to poured concrete, we help you select high-quality materials that balance form and function.
Design Integration
Walkways and driveways are designed to flow with your landscape’s natural grade, minimizing disruption while enhancing structure.
Precision Installation
Our team of seasoned installers ensures each path and drive is constructed with precision, using industry-best practices for base preparation, grading, and drainage.

Jenny Stewart

East Bay, California

I have been working with Ward, Gabe and their team of gardeners at my clients estate for the past 5 years. I have found them to be reliable, professional, and extremely knowledgeable of landscapes. They certainly know their plants, and have been instrumental in bringing a fine level of detail to the estate I manage. Their team of gardeners are respectful, attentive, and go above and beyond to create the well manicured gardens that the estate requires.

Darryl H

Estate Manager, Los Altos

Ward and his team completed two complex projects for our Silicon Valley client at their Sunnyvale campus. One involved redesigning a large atrium’s hardscape, requiring careful weekend transport of heavy materials through a newly renovated cafeteria—executed flawlessly without disrupting operations. They also revamped the main entrance planters, replacing an unsatisfactory installation with a more elegant and formal design. Their work is always thoughtful, precise, and completed with minimal disruption. We trust Petrus Landscaping for all large-scale projects, knowing they deliver exceptional results every time.
