Why our client trusts Sprinkler & Landscape Medics
Complete Landscaping Services in Round Rock, TX
Sprinkler Medics handles every part of a Round Rock landscape project from design through installation. Here’s what we build:
- Landscape design. Custom planting plans tailored to your property, soil, sun exposure, and how you use your outdoor space.
- Softscaping. Planting beds, native gardens, xeriscape conversions, seasonal color, andsod installation for new or replacement turf.
- Hardscape. Patios, walkways, retaining walls, decorative stone borders, fire pit surrounds, and outdoor living areas.
- Landscape lighting. Path lights, uplighting, and security coverage integrated into the landscape plan.
- Irrigation and drainage. Sprinkler system installation and French drains designed and installed by our licensed crew as part of the build.
- Mulch, bamboo, and ground cover. Finishing materials that hold moisture, suppress weeds, and clean up the beds.
Can You Convert My Existing Lawn to a Xeriscape Design?
Yes. We design and install full lawn-to-xeriscape conversions for Round Rock homeowners. We remove existing turf, amend the soil, and install drought-tolerant native plantings with drip irrigation and rock or decomposed granite ground cover. Xeriscaping cuts water use and maintenance significantly without sacrificing curb appeal.
Why Choose Sprinkler Medics as Your Round Rock Landscape Contractor
Sprinkler Medics is the only Round Rock landscaper that also installs the irrigation and drainage that keeps your landscape alive. One crew, one license, one estimate.
- NDS-Certified Drainage Contractor. We grade and drain your property as part of the landscape build. Drainage isn’t a separate bid from a separate company. It’s engineered into the project from day one.
- TCEQ-Licensed Irrigator (License #LI0025843). We install your sprinkler system legally during the install. Most landscapers subcontract irrigation to someone who has never seen the design plan.
- Veteran-Owned. Sprinkler Medics was founded by a U.S. Marine. We show up when scheduled, price the job before we start, and don’t tack on charges after the scope is set. We carry a 4.9-star Google rating across 147+ verified reviews from Central Texas homeowners.
- In-House Crew. Over 1,000 homes served across Greater Austin. No subcontractors on your property. Every estimate is written with line items visible before work begins.
Do Landscapers Need to Be Licensed to Install Irrigation in Texas?
Yes. Texas law under TCEQ 30 TAC Chapter 344 requires a licensed irrigator to design, install, or service any irrigation system connected to a potable water supply. A landscaper without this license cannot legally install your sprinkler system. Sprinkler Medics holds the license, which means your irrigation is designed and installed correctly as part of the landscape.
Our Round Rock Landscape Design and Installation Process
Every project starts with a consultation and site evaluation at your Round Rock property.
- Site evaluation. We walk your property, assess soil conditions, sun exposure, drainage patterns, and existing irrigation. We note what stays and what goes.
- Custom design plan. We build a plan covering plant selection, bed layout, hardscape placement, irrigation zone mapping, and drainage routing.
- Estimate and approval. You approve the full scope and cost before work begins. No change orders unless you request them.
- In-house installation. Our crew handles excavation, grading, drainage, irrigation, planting, hardscape, and finish work.
- Final walkthrough and seasonal guidance. We walk the completed project with you, review your irrigation controller settings, and provide care guidance for the first growing season.
How Long Does a Landscape Installation Take in Round Rock?
Most residential landscape projects take one to two weeks from groundbreaking to final walkthrough. A smaller project like a front yard planting bed renovation or a xeriscape conversion can wrap in three to five days. Larger builds with hardscape, irrigation, drainage, and full-yard planting typically run two to three weeks depending on scope and weather.
Best Plants, Trees and Materials for Round Rock Landscapes
We select plants and materials that perform in Round Rock’s heat, drought cycles, and two-day watering schedule.
- Perennials and shrubs. Texas Sage, Flame Acanthus, Salvia greggii (Autumn Sage), Turk’s Cap, Black-Eyed Susan, Lantana, and Blackfoot Daisy. All are Central Texas natives or well-adapted species recommended by the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension.
- Trees. Live oaks, cedar elms, and pecans are the backbone of Round Rock yards. Avoid pruning any oaks between February and June. The Texas A&M Forest Service identifies this as the high-risk window for oak wilt transmission.
- Hardscape and ground cover. Texas limestone, flagstone, decomposed granite, river rock, native hardwood mulch, and clumping bamboo for privacy screens and accent areas.
Can I Have a Green Lawn in Round Rock With Only Two Watering Days?
Yes, with the right turf and a properly zoned irrigation system. Bermuda handles full sun and heavy foot traffic on minimal water. Zoysia holds color with even less irrigation and mows less frequently.
St. Augustine works well in shadier yards but needs more moisture to stay green. Buffalo grass is the ultra-low-water option for homeowners willing to accept a thinner blade and a different look. Match your turf to your yard’s sun exposure and pair it with an irrigation system zoned for how each area uses water.
How Does Round Rock’s Clay Soil Affect Landscaping and Drainage?
Round Rock sits on Blackland Prairie clay that swells when wet and cracks when dry. T
