Irrigation Systems Installation That Saves Water

Koch & Associates provides professional irrigation system installation for California property owners who are rethinking the way they use water.

The drought may have eased, but water conservation is now a way of life in our state. If you have gone a couple years without a professional review of your current watering methods, reassessing how you irrigate could result in much lower utility bills and a better-looking landscape.

A state-of-the-art irrigation system installed by Koch & Associates gives unprecedented control over your watering habits. Remarkable advances in technology include the ability to monitor outdoor conditions, detect and stop leaks, and even program your system from a remote device.

UPGRADE YOUR IRRIGATION SYSTEM WITH THESE PRODUCTS

Koch & Associates uses these water-saving products to upgrade your irrigation system. Installation is relatively fast and most homeowners experience a positive return on investment within a few months.

  • Smart controllers. Modern controllers implement sensors that gather data from outdoor conditions. Information such as soil moisture, wind and sun exposure is used by the system to determine the amount of water your landscape needs at any particular time. You can adjust watering schedules by accessing controllers remotely via a smartphone app.
  • Water-saving sprinklers. Special nozzles deliver large droplets of water to your grass or plants. The heavier droplets reach plant and grass roots quickly, before they can evaporate.
  • Drip irrigation. Instead of conventional sprinklers, a water-conserving drip irrigation system directly irrigates the plant, minimizing evaporation.

BENEFITS OF INSTALLING AN IRRIGATION SYSTEM

Customized irrigation system installation by Koch & Associates professionals benefits you several ways:

  • Improved water efficiency. You can greatly reduce or eliminate water waste with modern irrigation technology. As a result, you may experience a significant reduction in your water bills.
  • Healthier plants and lawn. Improved coverage in each zone means your landscape receives the exact amount of water it needs, so your property looks consistently beautiful all year long.
  • Automatic adjustments. There is no need to hit the rain button or manually increase water on days with hot weather. Your new irrigation system automatically adapts to existing moisture conditions and seasonal changes.
    At Koch & Associates, we provide irrigation system installation for homeowners in Menlo Park, Los Gatos, San Ramon, and Saratoga.

We work quickly and can complete most upgrades within a day or two. Contact us online to schedule a consultation.

Hire Us To Be Your Private Garden Planner

A Koch & Associates garden planner has the expertise to help your special plot of land bloom and grow, year after year.

Homeowners often hope to save money by planting their garden themselves. While there are many competent DIY gardeners in the Bay Area, a novice may make mistakes that can make gardening more of a chore than a relaxing pastime.

With the help of an experienced garden planner, you avoid mistakes such as over-planting or poor watering techniques. Creating the lush, colorful garden you have always envisioned for yourself is simply a matter of following the plan.

HOW A GARDEN PLANNER BENEFITS YOU

A garden planner ensures the success of your garden by mapping out an overall strategy for planting and upkeep. The strategy includes elements such as:

  • Calculating space requirements. Before planting your garden, it’s important to decide what you wish to grow and how much space you will need. You may want to set aside more space for a vegetable garden than a flower garden.
  • Locating the garden on your property. Sun and shade exposure and soil quality affects the way plants grow. A good garden planner tests the soil to choose plants that will thrive in a particular location. Factors such as drainage and the damage nearby wildlife may inflict on plants are also considered.
  • Planting for best results. Over-planting or installing plants too close to each other results in plants that are competing for nutrients, light, and water. Proper spacing of plants saves money and promotes faster, more abundant growth and bloom.
  • Installing efficient irrigation. A modern, in-ground system eliminates hand watering and ensures each plant gets the right amount of water.

Koch & Associates’ service area includes the communities of Los Gatos, Menlo Park, San Ramon, and Saratoga.

BUILD YOUR GARDEN SLOWLY, WITH OUR HELP

Watching your garden change subtly from year to year is a joy. A garden planner helps you first establish your small piece of paradise, and then assists you in later years with suggestions for swapping out plants or installing improvements, such as a gravel walkway or a water feature.

Enjoy a satisfying, lifelong pastime with the help of a professional garden planner from Koch & Associates. Contact us online.

An Outdoor Kitchen Designer For Customized Spaces

The professional outdoor kitchen designers at Koch & Associates enable you to entertain in ways that go way beyond a simple barbecue.

We design and build outdoor kitchens that will become the centerpiece of your delightful gatherings, year after year. As functional extensions of your living space, a Koch & Associates kitchen is every bit as convenient as your indoor kitchen. Equipped with stunning features such as stone countertops, stainless steel appliances and custom cabinetry, our kitchens become the hub of your yard.

Our outdoor kitchen designers collaborate with you to build a modern space customized to the way you entertain. For example, if you wish to incorporate a bar area, countertop seating for diners, or an island for additional prep space, Koch & Associates will fit your desired layout into your space. With years of experience and hundreds of design plans, our backyard kitchen experts can make your vision a reality.

Our goal is to complete every project, regardless of complexity, on time, on budget and to your complete satisfaction. As an experienced an outdoor kitchen contractor, we frequently work with independent designers to construct the patio space of your dreams.

Koch & Associates’ serves clients across the Bay Area including the communities of Menlo Park, Los Gatos, San Ramon, and Saratoga.

THE OUTDOOR KITCHEN CONTRACTOR THAT BUILDS VALUE

A Koch & Associates-built outdoor kitchen offers many benefits to the homeowner:

  • Increased property value. Outdoor kitchens are an attractive option for potential homebuyers; particularly since patio living is growing in popularity. New residential construction increasingly includes outdoor kitchens in the original plans.
  • Energy savings on warm days. Cooking outdoors is a great way to prepare a meal while keeping the indoors cool and sparing the AC.
  • Supplemental food preparation area. A second kitchen is a bonus when larger gatherings require an extra sink, a few more stovetop burners, or additional refrigerator space.

Because we construct outdoor kitchens of durable materials and typically protect them with some type of overhead covering, maintenance is easy. All that’s required in the mild climate of northern California is a post dinner-party wipe down and an occasional thorough cleaning, especially of the grill, stovetop or oven.

To schedule an appointment with one of our outdoor kitchen designers, send us a note.
