Default Help with irrigation system

We are installing a new birdcage. This will require relocation and/or capping of several sprinkler heads.
Any recommendations on who to hire to do this work???
Thanks for your help.

Your lawn care professional would be the best bet. If you don't have one, Stellar does that work. Don't pour a slab without relocating the sprinkler mains to the perimeter, or you may have a problem.

I would think your bird-cage contractor would include any relocation and capping of irrigation heads with his estimate.

James Baumgartner is your guy! I would think though whoever is doing your birdcage would have included this as part of the job.

Default birdcage addition

Have the people doing the concrete work move the heads. They have to do digging anyway

We kept getting letters in the mail stating that we were using much more water than we should for our size lot. Using TOTV as a resource, I call Jim Baumgartner and he came over the next day and found and corrected the problem. Great knowledge at a very fair price.

Thanks for your help.
I'm pretty sure, your contractor will take care of that. Neighbor and I both had additions put on, and contractor took care of sprinkler system. (Usually the concrete people do that) I would ask your contractor.
