Golf Irrigation Consultants (GIC) has installed over 400 irrigation satellites at 13 golf courses in California, Hawaii and Mexico. We have poured new cement pads and replaced satellites onto existing pads.

 

As a licensed C-27 Landscape Contractor, we can handle the entire control system upgrade. When a client uses GIC, they always get the owners on site and in the trenches to perform the work. We are conscientious about or clients property, staff and golfers.

GIC is the only irrigation consulting and contracting company that can perform all of the work associated with a control system replacement or upgrade. GIC has installed new satellites in the middle of summer. There is never more than 24 hours of downtime and when absolutely needed, we have created a process that entails installing new satellites on new cement pads and the client was able to irrigate on the same day. Once on site GIC takes the time to assist staff with troubleshooting irrigation wiring or other problems at no additional charge. In ten years we have never issued a change order and we have never had to return to a client for warranty work.
