Services we provide

At McClard & Son Irrigation we provide quality products that have been tested throughout the industry and proven to be the best.
Our Irrigation line includes: Rain Bird and Hunter Heads and Controllers. We also provide weather sensors on all installations, which helps save on the water bill. Also, we install Drip Line in the planter areas, and have the ability to install it in the lawn as well (this is for the person who wants to save major moola on the water bill!!!). I could go on and on about the benefits of an irrigation system, but I won't bore you with the details.
So, along with the irrigation system we also provide fertigation. We can install 2 different brands E-Z Flo (which is an in ground unit), see previous posts; and, FertiGator (which is an above ground unit) about as big as the cable or phone box in your yard. Both of these have their pro's and con's, so I will leave it at that. Besides, no one can argue the benefits of micro-dosing fertilizer onto the lawn.
Our Synthetic Lawn and Putting Green line uses All Pro Greens Synthetic turf. I have checked into the other companies that put out synthetic turf, and the quality (in my opinion) doesn't stand close to that of All Pro Greens. All Pro greens uses a coal slag to infill the green, which does not mat down like sand. The synthetic lawn uses the same infill process, but the turf looks more like fescue than any I have seen. For the ULTIMATE WATER SAVINGS install a synthetic lawn (not that I wouldn't try to talk you into an irrigation system first). Our Water Garden line uses a variety of pond products. To say that one company has totally captured the market would not be truthful. There are pro's and con's about each company, so I will piece together a water garden of all the great components that are available.

Our Night Lighting line consist of using ClaroLux and Focus Lights. Each of these have proven themselves here with me. The last lighting job I did I installed ClaroLux Lights. They have a lifetime warranty on the fixtures, and timer. Let's face it, it's all about $$$$. You could spend more money on higher priced fixtures, but who is going to see the light fixture in a tree, shrub, or group of flowers. If the light fixture is your primary focus you totally missed the idea of "Night Lights". At night you want to see the effect of the light, not the light itself.

If you are in the Raleigh/Durham area we can design, install, and maintain any irrigation, water garden, putting green, synthetic lawn, or night lighting you would need.
