We design and install lawn irrigation systems from the trench up — pump, valve manifold, PVC laterals, heads and controller — and we repair systems that stopped watering the way they should.

A sprinkler system is a pressurised water network: a supply or pump, a manifold of electric valves that split the yard into zones, buried pipe to every head, and a controller that decides when each zone runs. When a corner of the lawn dies or water runs onto the sidewalk, the cause is almost always in how that network was laid out, not in one broken head.
We build new systems the same way we run any water line: trenches at a consistent depth, glued PVC, valve boxes you can open later, and a controller mounted where you can reach it.
This short clip is from a new system we installed near Ruskin. It starts at the valve box — the solenoid valves on their PVC manifold, before the lid goes on — and follows the fresh trenches across the lot toward the water.
Every zone begins at one of those valves. The controller opens them one at a time, so each zone gets the full flow the pump can deliver instead of sharing it.
The pump and pressure tank set how much water each zone can have. On the Ruskin job the irrigation pump and its pressure tank sit at the house wall and feed the manifold directly.
The valve manifold is where the yard is divided into zones. Grouping the valves in one box makes them easy to find and service; each lateral leaves the box in its own trench.
The controller runs the schedule. We mount it on a wall you can reach, wire it to the valves and set the zones — then adjust the schedule to Florida's wet and dry seasons rather than leaving a factory default.
A full new system: trenches cut with a walk-behind trencher, PVC laterals laid across the lot, a manifold of five solenoid valves in a valve box, an irrigation pump with a pressure tank at the house, and a new controller on the brick wall.
A worn head replaced on an existing system so the zone covers its area again.
Water source, lawn and bed areas, and where the pipe can run.
Valves grouped in a box, each zone sized to what the pump or supply can deliver.
Trenches cut, PVC laterals glued and laid, heads set before backfill.
Controller wired and programmed, each zone run and heads adjusted.
Usually a coverage gap or low pressure in that zone: heads spaced too far apart, a clogged nozzle, or too many heads on one valve. We test the specific zone rather than replacing parts at random.
Florida law (section 373.62, Florida Statutes) requires automatic lawn sprinkler systems to have a device that shuts the system off after enough rain. We fit one on new systems and can add one to an existing system.
Yes. On systems fed by a pump, the pump and its pressure tank set how many heads each zone can run. We size the zones to the pump, as on the Ruskin job shown here.
Yes — valves, heads, broken laterals and most residential controllers.
Workmanship warranty: 5 years on new construction, 1 year on repairs. Equipment carries the manufacturer's warranty.
Pro Plumbers FL is partner-owned — specialists who came together in one licensed company (CFC1432506). Viktor Zarubitskii — in the plumbing trade since 1998 — plans the job, makes the technical decisions and works on site. Our own plumbers do the plumbing. Work outside plumbing, such as concrete cutting, we either do ourselves or bring in a contractor — either way it is written into your quote.
