Breaking Down Cost Based On Lawn Size

How Much Do Sprinkler Systems Usually Cost?

Maryland's sprinkler installers since 1983

Why Choose TLC?

Bob Carr started TLC in 1983 as a small residential sprinkler business. More than 40 years later, sprinkler systems are still the heart of what we do.

  • Upfront pricing. Published price ranges and an instant estimator mean you know the ballpark before anyone visits.
  • No-pressure proposals. You get a written plan and price, and the decision stays with you.
  • Designed around your yard. Every system is planned for your slope, sun, soil, and water source, not just your square footage.
  • Built to last. A properly installed system lasts 15 years or more.
  • Local crews. Our technicians know Maryland soil and weather.
  • Here after the install. Maintenance memberships keep your system ready every spring and protected every winter.

What Kind Of Warranty Is Offered By TLC?

Every new TLC sprinkler system comes with a 7-year warranty at no extra cost. It's in writing, and it covers more than most homeowners expect: the design of your system, the parts and materials that go into it, and the labor to make it right.

If a zone isn't covering the way it should, a part fails, or something just isn't working right, our team comes out and fixes it. You don't pay for the repair or the visit.

Cheaper installers often offer little or no warranty, which leaves you paying for every problem down the road. We'd rather build your system right and stand behind it for seven years.
