Sprinkler, irrigation & drainage services in Apex, NC
Every sprinkler, irrigation, and drainage service we bring to one of America’s fastest-growing towns — tuned to Apex’s odd/even schedule and Jordan Lake water.
Your local sprinkler & irrigation team in Apex
Apex has been one of the fastest-growing towns in America for a decade, and its yards show it: thousands of builder-installed irrigation systems, all hitting their first real repairs at about the same time, on lots where the topsoil left with the construction crew.
Here is everything we do in Apex, plus the local water facts — the shared Cary-Apex plant, the odd/even schedule, the permit rules — that shape how systems here should be set up.

What Apex homeowners deal with
Apex’s water setup is its own thing, and systems here run best when they’re built around it.
What to know about water in Apex
Apex water is treated at the jointly owned Cary-Apex Water Treatment Facility drawing from Jordan Lake, which delivers steady, consistent pressure — we tune head spacing and nozzle choice to it. The town sets watering days by address on an odd/even schedule, and irrigation systems need a permit and a backflow preventer under Apex’s cross-connection program.
The ground is classic Wake County clay: it sheds water fast, so cycle-and-soak programming matters more here than almost anywhere, and drainage problems show up early on lots where grading was an afterthought.
Common calls we get in Apex
- Builder-grade systems coming of age. Undersized valves and shared zones from the construction boom are now failing — we rework them properly.
- Odd/even schedule confusion. We reprogram controllers to Apex’s address-based watering days so you stay compliant without thinking about it.
- New-sod yards drying in strips. Coverage gaps from rushed installs; we audit head-to-head coverage and fix the spacing.
- Water pooling against foundations. Fast-shedding clay plus builder grading equals wet crawlspaces — French drains and downspout extensions solve it.
Apex neighborhoods we serve
Scotts Mill, Haddon Hall, and Bella Casa fill a lot of our Apex schedule — newer subdivisions with builder systems — alongside established streets near downtown Apex where systems have had twenty years to drift out of tune.

Apex sprinkler & irrigation FAQ
Does Apex really require a permit for irrigation work?
New systems need a permit and a backflow preventer under the town’s cross-connection program — we handle compliant installs and upgrades.
What is Apex’s watering schedule?
Odd/even by address. We set your controller to your days and dial run times so the lawn still gets deep watering.
Why does my newer Apex system already need repair?
Construction-boom installs often cut corners — shared zones, undersized valves, shallow lines. Common, and fixable.
Do you do drainage work in Apex?
Yes — French drains, downspout drainage, and grading correction, which Apex’s clay and new construction make common.
How fast can you get to Apex?
Apex is minutes from our Cary shop — it is some of our quickest response territory.
