We’re here to help you navigate the ins and outs of caring for your landscaped yard. Check out the topics below for common questions.
At GVR Landscape, we work with the homebuilder to install landscapes in order by closing date. This can vary by season. During winter we install non-live materials (pipe, edging, fabric, rock). We will return the following spring to install live materials such as: sod, trees, shrubs.
This answer varies by season. If the non-live landscape was installed during the winter, we will return the following spring to install sod. During Spring, Summer, and Fall we install sod once per week by neighborhood as landscapes are completed.
Our installation technicians set your irrigation time for a sod establishment schedule. This is generally seven days a week, three times per day at 6am, 12pm, and 6pm. After the establishment period is over, re-set the irrigation timer to the run times suggested by your municipality.
Irrigation system run times vary considerably based on many factors. Temperature, sun exposure, soil type, sprinkler head type (pop up sprayers, rotating heads, etc.) and many more factors contribute to determining run times.
We plant trees and shrubs selected from a list provided by the Home Owner’s Association and the homebuilder that are appropriate for Colorado’s climate.
Anything GVR Landscape installed in your yard is covered under warranty for 1 year. This includes: trees, shrubs, irrigation, edging etc. The only exclusion is sod. Sod is under warranty for 30 days. If something is determined to be warrantable it will be replaced one time during the warranty period at no charge. All warranty work is to first go through your homebuilder who processes the paperwork for us. We then schedule to verify the requested is warrantable and then to complete the warranty work.
GVR Landscape works for the home builder. The homeowner must contact the home builder to issue the appropriate paperwork that is sent to our warranty department. Once the paperwork is received, we will schedule a time to come to your home for landscape work outside of the installation period and address any warranty inquiries.
A sprinkler system winterization is done to prevent damage that can occur when water freezes and expands in cold winter and spring months. Compressed air is blown into the system to force out all the water. This keeps your system safe and clear from water damage until the chance of freezing temperatures passes.
No. In general, it is the home owner’s responsibility to winterize their sprinkler system.
