Desert plants want slow water at the roots, not a spray. We install drip irrigation in Chandler, AZ that does it. Call (480) 219-0038 and we will run lines and emitters sized for your shrubs, trees and beds, set the timer and check every zone. We are family owned, licensed, bonded and insured, and your free estimate comes with a written price.
Tell us where the yard is and we will come measure it.
A spray head on a rock bed wets the gravel, the wall and the walkway along with the plant. Drip puts a measured amount of water into the ground at each plant, slowly enough that it soaks in. In the Chandler heat that means less lost to evaporation and more reaching the roots.
Drip irrigation suits desert landscaping in Chandler for that reason. Sonoran Desert plants like palo verde, agave, lantana and bougainvillea want deep, occasional water, and drip delivers it without keeping the surface wet.
Ready when you areWant every plant watered without wasting a drop? CGL Landscaping installs and repairs drip irrigation in Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe and across the East Valley, with emitters sized for desert plants and trees. Book a free on-site estimate or call (480) 219-0038.
Anything that is not a lawn is a good fit for drip. Shrubs, cactus, trees, flower beds and potted plants all take water better at the root.
Here are six places on Chandler, Gilbert and Mesa properties where we install and extend drip systems. They run from front yards to commercial islands.
Drip runs under the rock to each palm and shrub, so the yard stays clean and nothing sprays the curb.
Commercial planters where spray would soak cars and pavement. Drip keeps the water in the island.
Emitters spaced out toward the edge of the canopy and added as the tree grows.
Small tubing run to containers on the patio so they water on the same schedule.
Old spray zones in shrub beds converted over to drip.
It is often the drip. We check each emitter and show you which plants are getting too little or too much, on a free estimate.
A drip quote starts with the plants. We walk each bed, note what is planted and how big it is, check the valve and the pressure, and then give you a written price for the drip work.
We also look for an old filter or a missing pressure regulator at the valve. Those two parts are behind a lot of dead plants on East Valley drip systems.
Drip is simple once it is laid out right. Common drip problems come from a missing filter, the wrong emitters or tubing left on the surface to cook.
In summer heat, tubing left on top of the rock gets brittle and cracks. We bury or cover the lines and bring each emitter up at the plant.
Plants, emitters and tubing mapped.
Filter and regulator added at the valve.
Lines trenched or buried under rock.
Sized and set at each plant.
Lines flushed, every emitter checked.
A lot of drip work goes in alongside new plants, rock and trees. Doing the irrigation on the same job means the tubing goes in before the rock, not dug in after.
Desert trees like palo verde and mesquite, shrubs like Texas sage and ground covers like lantana all belong on drip. Planning the layout with the planting plan puts an emitter where each root ball ends up.
Every yard has a different plant count and layout, so drip is priced after we see it. These are the four things that matter.
A small front yard bed in Chandler and a full desert backyard in Queen Creek are both drip jobs. The tubing, the emitter count and the labor are very different.
Each plant needs its own emitters and a line to reach it.
Adding to a working zone takes less than starting from the valve.
Working under existing rock takes longer than open soil.
Trees need more emitters and may need their own line.

Best landscapers I’ve ever had! I live in an HOA with very strict rules and they did an absolutely fabulous job. So thankful to have found them. Each of their employees are extremely hard working and even go above and beyond wiping off patio furniture and making every part of the front/backyard presentable. Can’t wait to see them again!Posted on Google![]()

We’ve been working with CGL for nearly a year now, and they’ve been incredible. They helped us get our irrigation system back on track after our previous landscaper severely dropped the ball. Additionally, anytime we had an emergency leak, they were on-site within a few hours at most. Their responsiveness, professionalism, and quality of work have been outstanding. It's also nice to work with someone like Jose and can answer all of your questions and explain everything in such detail to ensure you understand the issue(s) at hand. Highly recommend!Posted on Google![]()

I recently hired CGL Landscaping for sod installation at my home in Phoenix, and they did a fantastic job. From the initial consultation to the final touches, their professionalism and expertise were evident. They prepared the soil and installed high-quality, lush sod that transformed my yard. CGL Landscaping's attention to detail and customer service set them apart. They ensured proper irrigation, provided aftercare instructions, and even followed up to check on the sod's progress. The project was completed on time and within the estimated timeframes Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with CGL Landscaping. Their commitment to quality and outstanding customer service have earned my trust and future business. I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs in the Phoenix area.Posted on Google![]()

CGL Landscaping has been great to work with. We reached out to Jose to get an estimate for a one time clean up and monthly service. Jose and Alan showed up the next day to provide an estimate for both services. We elected to move forward with CGL and the clean up crew was out the following day to complete services. Two weeks later, the monthly maintenance crew showed up to complete our first monthly service. Invoicing and payment is easy through an online portal. Jose and Alan were both responsive throughout the process and were accessible via text, email or phone call. So far we are very pleased with our services through CGL and would recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping services.Posted on Google![]()

CGL landscaping made the process super easy from start to finish. Jose came out quickly to give me a proposal and I got it the same day. Scheduling was also very easy, and my project was done on time. Would recommend CGL to anyone if you’re looking for great work and great customer service.Posted on Google![]()

I used to use another landscaping company and they never did the job right, along with that the communication was not there, never got returned calls and it was impossible to reach someone. Then I found CGL Landscaping. They were quick to come out for a free estimate and communication was always and still there. One of the office workers, Alan, is always there to answer and if he doesn't, he is quick to respond. Thank you CGL for 3 great years and many more to come!Posted on Google![]()

SUPER TOP NOTCH COMPANY Best experience, Jose was kind and understanding of my situation. I had LNR landscaping put in synthetic turf in my front yard, did a horrible job. After months of trying to get them to come back, after they’ve been paid in full to fix it. They stopped returning phone calls , never kept set appointments to come and fix it. I called Jose and they blew me away, they came right away, crew was all friendly and got the job done quickly. They went above and beyond I was just thinking they to fix what was there but the job was so bad they removed it all and replaced the whole area. Definitely will recommend to everyone I know. Thanks Jose and team that came today you made my nightmare a beauty that I can now enjoy when I walk out my door.Posted on Yelp![]()

I worked with Jose and his team and found them to be professional, courteous and trustworthy. My yard looks amazing. Jose was patient with me as I made a few changes from my original design. The trees they planted are looking healthy as well as the flower bed, Jose offered to provided care to my front yard and it turned out awesome. He also offered to made a nice area for my dog it turned out great. My plan is to continue with CGL Landscaping for maintenance. Thank you Jose for a job well done.

I rarely, if ever, write reviews let alone give someone a 5-star rating unless they REALLY deserve it. We interviewed 4 landscaping companies before we selected Creative Green Landscaping. We chose them because they were very knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable from our very first meeting. Jose (the owner) made it clear that our satisfaction was their number one goal. He definitely followed through and they did a beautiful job. They started the work immediately and throughout the project they showed up early and stayed late. They worked hard and provided quality work. When we decided last minute to make changes, they were flexible and helpful. We have had our fair share of negative contractor experiences, so we appreciate good and honest firms like Creative Green Landscaping. We highly recommend them for your project.Load more
Ask us anything not listed here during your free estimate. We can check a zone with you while it runs.
Run times, dying plants and tree watering are the common drip questions in Chandler, especially heading into summer. Here are straight answers.
Drip runs much longer than spray because it puts water out slowly. Run times depend on the emitters and the plants, so we set them per zone rather than guessing.
Usually a clogged or missing emitter, a broken line or an emitter too small for the plant as it grew. Checking the zone while it runs shows which one it is.
Often they do, since trees need more water less often than shrubs. We will look at your valves and tell you if a separate zone makes sense.
Yes, and it should. Covered tubing lasts longer out of the sun and keeps the yard looking clean.
Flush the lines and clean the filter now and then, and check the emitters as plants grow. Adding emitters over time is normal.
Yes. We install drip across San Tan Valley, Queen Creek, Chandler, Gilbert and the East Valley.
Chandler based, with drip work from Gilbert to San Tan Valley. We also cover Mesa, Tempe, Queen Creek and Ahwatukee.
Desert landscapes across Maricopa County run on drip, from new builds with fresh rock to older yards with mature trees. We work on both.
Most drip calls fall into one of these four. We can handle more than one on the same visit if your yard needs it.
Lawn areas stay on sprinklers, so if your yard has both, we can look at the spray zones while we are there. One visit can cover the whole system.
Full layout from the valve for a new or redone yard.
Extending an existing zone to new shrubs or trees.
Broken tubing, clogged emitters and leaks fixed.
CGL is a family company in Chandler. The people laying your drip line are on our crew, and they plan it knowing how an East Valley summer treats a plant.
We plant, rock and care for desert yards, not just run tubing. That is how we know where the emitters need to go.
Get a free estimate. We walk your beds, check the valve and give you a written price for the drip work.
