Southlake's twice-a-week watering schedule
Southlake runs a year-round, twice-per-week schedule for automatic irrigation:
| Address | Watering days | Allowed hours |
|---|---|---|
| Even-numbered | Wednesday & Saturday | 6 p.m. – 10 a.m. |
| Odd-numbered | Thursday & Sunday | 6 p.m. – 10 a.m. |
Hand watering with a hose is allowed outside those hours. The city also treats these as water waste: watering more than twice a week, running sprinklers between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., letting water run onto streets, sidewalks or driveways, watering during rain or freezing weather, and broken or misaligned heads that pool water on paving. Code Enforcement leaves a notice for a first violation and issues a citation by the third.

Every system we install is programmed for your assigned days and laid out to keep water off paving. Southlake also offers residents a free W.I.S.E. Guys sprinkler evaluation through the city — a good option if you just want a check-up on an existing system.

Design for Southlake homes
Many Southlake projects are large lots and custom homes where a 3D landscape design is worth it: you see the pool surround, entry and beds before anything is built. We plan the irrigation with the design so beds get drip and turf zones can meet the twice-a-week schedule without runoff. Then we install it — see residential design & installation.
Custom home builders in Southlake can bring us in early for landscape, drainage and irrigation planning.
