Commercial Irrigation Services & Sprinkler Systems • Local Branches in Cleveland and Columbus.
Commercial Irrigation Services Checked Zone by Zone, Every Season
Irrigation runs unattended for months at a time, and on a commercial site no one walks every zone. By the time a problem is visible, it is usually a dead section of turf in August or a wet entrance someone has already complained about.Scheduled startups, audits, and winterization put eyes on the system before it gets that far.
What Commercial Irrigation Services Include
Spring startups and pressure checks. Mid-season audits, zone by zone. Head adjustment and replacement. Controller programming and seasonal adjustment. Annual backflow testing coordination. Leak and break repair. Winterization before the first hard freeze. New construction system design and installation, and redesign for properties where the system was laid out for a landscape that no longer exists.

-
The audit finds what a startup cannot.
A startup confirms the system turns on. An audit confirms it is watering the right things at the right rate. Walking every zone under pressure is how you find the head spraying the parking lot, the zone that has been overwatering one bed since the plantings changed, and the controller still running a schedule set two seasons ago.
-
Watering happens outside your operating hours.
Run times are programmed around when the property is busy, so sprinklers are not running across a walkway during a morning shift change or through a leasing tour on a Saturday.
-
Problems come back in the service report.
The crew maintaining your grounds is the crew that notices a head sitting low or a wet patch that should not be there, and it reaches you in the same report as everything else on the site rather than as a separate conversation.
-
Repairs are scoped before they are invoiced.
Breaks and failures are priced and approved rather than performed and billed. Irrigation does not become the line item that moves your annual number.
-
New construction systems are designed with the landscape.
On design and build work the irrigation goes in alongside the plantings and the surfaces. Running a line under a finished walkway costs multiples of running it during construction.
How an Irrigation Account Works Through the Year
Spring startup and pressure check.
The system is charged, every zone is run, and anything that broke over the winter is found before it costs you a bed.
Mid-season audit and adjustment.
Coverage, head alignment, pressure, and controller programming checked against what the landscape currently needs. Findings come back with what needs correcting now and what can wait.
Winterization before the freeze.
Lines blown out and the controller shut down ahead of the first sustained freeze, which is the single step that prevents the most expensive spring repairs.
"They are a very professional landscaping firm. They have strong processes in place to deliver great service and their people care about the customer getting a good result."

How Exscape Group Operates on Your Property
One person who knows your property.
You get a single point of contact who stays with your account year-round. Not a rotating queue, not a different name on every email.
The crew serving you is based in your market.
Our branches cover Greater Cleveland and Columbus, so the team on your property is local to it. Local presence is how the company was built, not a byproduct of getting bigger.
Every visit gets written down.
After a service visit you hear what the crew saw, whether it was expected or not. Property history lives in one shared system across every branch, not in one person's truck.
We are still here after the install.
When the first fall arrives and you are wondering what to cut back and what to leave, someone answers. The team that builds your space is the team that cares for it.
We will tell you if we are not the right fit.
If your project is smaller, we will tell you plainly rather than take three weeks to not call you back.

Good Questions, Straight Answers
-
Exscape Group runs startups in spring once the risk of a hard freeze has passed, and winterizes in late fall before the first sustained freeze. Both are scheduled in advance on recurring accounts rather than booked each season. A system left charged through a freeze is the most common cause of expensive spring repairs.
-
Exscape Group runs every zone under pressure during an audit and checks coverage, head alignment, pressure, and controller programming against what the landscape currently needs. It finds the slow problems a startup cannot, including heads watering hard surfaces and zones still running a schedule set for different plantings. Findings come back with what needs correcting and what can wait.
-
Exscape Group installs irrigation on established commercial properties regularly, and the approach depends on what is already in the ground. Trenching routes are planned around existing plantings, surfaces, and utilities so the installation does not undo work that is already there. The property is walked and the layout agreed before anything is dug.
-
Exscape Group holds both the grounds care and the irrigation under one agreement and one point of contact, so a soaked bed is not a question of whose scope it falls into. The crew maintaining the property reports water problems as they appear rather than working around them. Repairs are scoped and priced the same way as any other work on the account.
