To meet their needs, the Hohokam engineered the largest and most sophisticated irrigation system in the Americas. They were skilled farmers and would manage the soil to replace lost nutrients. Plus, because we own all our equipment, and all our trucks are loaded with the most common replacement parts, we can make over 95% of repairs within minutes of identifying the problem.

However, we don’t just hook up a couple pipes and turn on the water we carefully inspect all aspects of the system (whether installed by Absolute Irrigation or another company) for any leaks or malfunctions, and then recommend and make any necessary repairs.This inspection ensures that your system will work effectively when you need it, greatly reduces the likelihood for repair calls throughout the season, and can save you hundreds of dollars on your water bill by identifying and fixing any water-wasting defects.
