Sprinkler Shutdowns: New York Plantings Irrigation and Lighting Division Winterizing Service

Ah, yes, the cold breeze of winter is already lingering in the walks of New York and it seems that the leaves have given up their grip in that good old oak tree in Central Park, NYC. It’s the time of the year again, when the harshness of nature strikes with its chilling embrace to New York residences. And probably you are now thinking of your lawn, and if your sprinklers could survive until spring; so, you are now formulating methods as to how would you avoid the seemingly inevitable damage of your sprinkler pipes and probably you are reading manuals (even “how to” blogs perhaps) on how to winterize your gardening equipment. Well, given that they offer step by step instructions and even lay off tips to make it look like you can do it yourself, but still most of them would really tell you it is not recommended and the best move is hire a licensed irrigation contractor for your maintenance needs for your drip irrigation maintenance, blowouts, shutdowns or probably, you may need other irrigation services. So instead of tiring yourself thinking you could save a penny through your own hard work but, fate as it always play, would make you realize your own “money saver act” had given you another expensive leap of repair and voila, a gigantic replacement cost; just hire someone to do the job, less hassle, less costly don’t you think?

Crucial Steps We Take Before Starting Your Garden and Landscape Design Project


New York Plantings Garden Designers and Landscape Contractors offers a wide range of services – not just for ground work but for rooftops, penthouses, terraces and any other place you may need garden designs. However, you may be wondering how we do our work.

After the general consultation, rooftop garden designers and specialists do not just rush right away to work on the project. There is a tedious but very important procedure that has to be done before everything else is commenced.

Photos and Hand Measurements

Before starting everything else, the garden and landscape designers will visit your area and look at the place. Hand measurements of the area will be taken as well as photos to ensure that everything is taken into consideration.

This part is very crucial because the dimensions and overall look of the area should be considered before finally rendering the design, which will be followed during the construction.
This is to make sure that all installations will fit the area – avoiding problems when working.

3D Garden Design Rendering

After the dimensions and photographs are taken, our rooftop garden designers will consult with different members of the team, including an Ipe specialist and member of the irrigation and landscape lighting division in order to create the perfect plan for your penthouse, rooftop garden or terrace. The design of course will also be based on your preference and instructions. The plan will be detailed and will include the placements for trees, plants, flowers, custom planters, landscape lighting, water features and of course – drip irrigation.

Once the plan is in order, they will create a 3D rendering of the plan, which will help depict the overall look of the area. Doing this helps achieve realistic appearance of the architecture, allowing you to see the physical conditions of your penthouse, rooftop or terrace beautification project even before it is built.

Rendering also allows workers to easily visualize the goal of the project in order to minimize problems and mistakes in outdoor carpentry and installation, so you can be sure to expect the results that you want.

New York Plantings specializing in Asian Garden design takes these initial steps very seriously to make sure that each project is well planned and well executed.

These could also serve as protector for beneficial insects and earthworms from predating birds and could serve as shelter for desirable species in your yard, such as butterflies and bees.

Todd Nappi, President of New York Plantings Garden Designers and Landscape Contractors, professional horticulturist, explicates that ground covers create a beneficial environment on the ground around root system that closely resembles of that of a natural setting. He also added that ground covers have the ability to provide trees and shrubs non-compacted soil surface that enables water to reach roots quickly. Ground covers prevent soil from washing away around and under the trees as well as open spaces thus providing sufficient water supply to other plants.

What sets ground cover more convenient than lawn is the less landscape care and maintenance, meaning less lawn cutting. Many landscape and garden design have utilized low maintenance ground cover plantings to blanket areas which are traditionally covered by high-maintenance lawns. Ground covers, such as ivy and juniper, can save you time, effort and money on maintenance and create texture and color options that cannot be achieved by common turfs. Other ground cover highly recommended by garden professionals are Pachysandra Cotonester, Drift Roses and evergreens like the Japanese Skimmia that could provide a year round interest with its appearance of tiny white flowers in Spring, followed by bright red berries in Fall, and staying green all year round; this plant also requires no maintenance or pruning at all.
