What we do
Two trades,one crew.
Sprinkler design, repair, and tune-ups on the irrigation side; weekly mowing, edging, beds, and seasonal cleanup on the landscape side. Pick one or both — we run the system that keeps the lawn alive in Lago Vista.
New System Design & Install
Full-property design with matched-precipitation heads, drip for beds, smart controller, and a clean valve manifold.
starts at $2400 · per visit
Patio Misting Systems
Residential mist lines for patios and outdoor kitchens — drops the felt-temperature 15-25°F on a Lago Vista August afternoon.
starts at $850 · per visit
Drip Conversions
Convert overhead spray in beds to in-line drip — kinder on plants, cuts bed water use 40-60%, and stops feeding the weeds.
starts at $320 · per visit
Weekly Mowing
Same crew, same morning — clean cut on Bermuda, St. Augustine, or Zoysia, with edged borders every visit.
starts at $45 · per visit
Edging & Trimming
Power-edged borders along beds, walks, and drives — and string-trim around fences, posts, and trees.
starts at $30 · per visit
Bed Maintenance & Mulch
Hand-pulled weeds, seasonal pruning, and a 2-inch hardwood top-up so beds stay tidy through Hill-Country summers.
starts at $95 · per visit
Leaf & Storm Cleanup
Cedar pollen drop, oak-leaf fall, post-storm brush — the Hill Country has its own clean-up calendar and we run it.

Why we lead with irrigation
Irrigation first.
Lawn second.
In the Hill Country, the lawn lives or dies on what comes out of the sprinkler valve. Caliche soil drains fast, summers run 100°+ for weeks, and a single broken head on a slope wastes more water than the rest of the system uses combined.
Most landscape crews mow the symptom. We diagnose the cause: the zone short on coverage, the head spraying the fence instead of the grass, the controller still on the spring schedule in August. Fix the watering, the lawn comes back on its own.
Travis is a Texas-licensed landscape irrigator (TCEQ requires the license to design, install, or repair sprinkler systems in Texas). The schematic on the right is roughly what a Lago Vista property looks like from the meter back — we walk it with you the first visit so you know where every line and valve is.
- State-licensed irrigator (TCEQ — required by Texas law)
- Hunter / Rain Bird / Toro parts — whatever your system runs on
- Wells, LCRA, mixed-source — we work on all of it
Meter → backflow → mainline → valves → zones. The boring parts are the ones we get right.
How it works
Three steps,no hassle
We try to make hiring us boring in the best way — predictable, quiet, easy to explain to your spouse.
Walk the property
We come out, listen to what you want, and look at what the lawn actually needs. No high-pressure quotes, no surprises.
Quote on the spot
You get a flat per-visit price the same day. That number is what shows up on the invoice — no add-ons.
Same crew, every week
Once we start, the same two-person crew shows up the same morning every week. Quiet, on-time, gate latched.

Recent work, around the Lake Travis west arm.
Mostly weekly customers in Lago Vista, Jonestown, and Leander. The lawns look like this between our visits — that’s the irrigation talking.
Lago Vista water sources
Wells, LCRA, or both — the system has to know.
Half of Lago Vista runs on private wells, the other half on LCRA municipal water. They behave nothing alike, and an irrigation system tuned for one will quietly fail on the other.
On a well
- · Pressure swings as the pump cycles
- · Sediment chews up valves — needs a filter
- · Zone runtimes capped to what the pump can sustain
- · Iron and minerals stain concrete — aim heads inward
On LCRA / city
- · Steady pressure, but Stage restrictions cycle through
- · Days-of-week limits — controller reprogrammed each Stage
- · Backflow tested annually (city requirement)
- · Bills jump fast on a leak — we monitor your run-times
Not sure which you’re on? If your meter is a flat lid in the front yard, LCRA. If it’s a wellhead with a pressure tank near the house — well. Either way: we’ll figure it out the first visit.
Lago Vista is home base. We work the west arm of Lake Travis — Jonestown up the Lohmans Ford bridge, Volente across the lake, Leander and Cedar Park out FM 1431, and Lakeway by appointment.
In their words
What customers say
Some of the long-time customers who put up with us showing up every week, rain or shine.
Travis came out the same day I called. Found a leak under the rock in our front bed I would have never spotted, fixed two heads, and reprogrammed the controller for our well. Water bill dropped the next month.

Designed and installed a new 12-zone system at our place above Lake Travis. He sleeved the drive before pouring, which a previous bid left out. Drip in the beds, MP rotators on the slope. Three years in, no callbacks.

Mowing every Wednesday like clockwork. After our St. Augustine started yellowing they walked the property, found two zones that were short on coverage, and re-aimed the heads. Lawn came back in two weeks.

Good to know
Frequently asked
- Both. Travis is a Texas-licensed landscape irrigator, so the sprinkler side is the lead trade — but most of our weekly customers are on full mow-and-bed plans as well. The two go together: a healthy lawn starts at the valve, and we want eyes on the system every visit.
- Yes — most of Lago Vista north of Lohmans Ford runs on wells, and we work on well-fed systems all the time. Pressure swings, sediment, and pump cycling are the usual culprits. We add a sediment filter and adjust zone runtimes to whatever your pump can sustain without short-cycling.
- Yes. Most of the lakefront subdivisions run on LCRA municipal water and we follow Stage 1-4 watering rules as those move through the season. We program your controller around the current restriction so you stay legal without thinking about it.
- For a stuck zone or geysering head: same week, usually next-day. New-system design and install: typically two to three weeks out depending on parts. We are a small crew so the schedule is real, not a placeholder.
- Yes. Travis holds a Texas Landscape Irrigator license through TCEQ — required by state law to design, install, or repair sprinkler systems in Texas. General liability and workers’ comp on every crew member. Happy to send the certificate.
- We push to the next dry day, usually within 24 to 48 hours. You will hear from us if it slips beyond that.
