Murray soils are mostly deep silty clays with very slow drainage, absorbing water at roughly 0.01–0.5 inches per hour. This heavy clay can crust or run off if sprinklers apply water too quickly. Because rocky or sandy soils are uncommon, sprinkler systems in Murray should run slow, deep cycles. Adding compost or loam and using cycle-and-soak watering helps reduce runoff and improve root health.
We are licensed with Utah's Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL) to perform landscape irrigation services in Murray. We are also fully insured in case anything ever goes wrong.
We guarantee arrival within 48 hours (during business days) or you get $25 off the cost of your visit. During the hot summer months, Utah's cool-season grass gets hit hard by the heat. We understand that when the sprinklers break or when new plants are put into your landscape, you need service as soon as possible.

Your safety and peace of mind is important to us. We don't hire anyone who doesn't pass a background check and drug test. Beyond that, we train our staff specifically on providing top-tier service, and we take complaints very seriously.

Murray soils are mostly deep silty clays with very slow drainage, absorbing water at roughly 0.01–0.5 inches per hour. This heavy clay can crust or run off if sprinklers apply water too quickly. Because rocky or sandy soils are uncommon, sprinkler systems in Murray should run slow, deep cycles. Adding compost or loam and using cycle-and-soak watering helps reduce runoff and improve root health.
Murray does not provide residential secondary (pressurized irrigation) water. Homeowners irrigate with culinary water drawn from city wells and springs and treated to drinking standards. Culinary water is billed by meter with tiered pricing. For a ¾″ meter, the base charge is about $12.51/month. Usage is tiered at roughly $1.19 per ccf for the first block, increasing to about $3.13 per ccf at higher tiers (1 ccf = 748 gallons).
Without a city secondary system, Murray’s irrigation season follows freeze dates. The first fall freeze averages around October 8, and the last spring freeze around May 4. Most residents winterize sprinklers by mid-October and wait until mid-May to restart systems. These dates help prevent frozen pipes and sprinkler damage in Murray’s clay soils.
Murray enforces time-of-day watering rules. No lawn watering is allowed between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM on any day. Outside those hours, watering is allowed any day of the week—there are no odd/even address restrictions in city code. Limited exceptions may apply for situations like establishing new sod or filling a pool, but all irrigation must otherwise follow the time rule.
Murray does not operate its own rebate program, but residents and businesses qualify for Utah Water Savers / Slow the Flow incentives through the Central Utah Water Conservancy District. Available rebates commonly include turf removal, smart irrigation controllers, rain barrels, and high-efficiency toilets. Commercial properties can access incentives for efficient landscaping and fixtures. Program availability and amounts vary by year.
All irrigation systems connected to Murray’s culinary water must have an approved backflow preventer. The city allows RPZ (Reduced Pressure Zone) or PVB (Pressure Vacuum Breaker) devices for sprinkler systems; double-check valves are not permitted for irrigation. Devices must be installed near the property line and tested by a certified tester within 10 days of installation and annually thereafter to remain compliant.
