Watering Info
- When can I water my lawn?
TMWA has announced their offical plan and the 3-Day a week watering plan has started.
If the last number of your home or business address is:
- Odd (1, 3, 5, 7 or 9), water only on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
- Even (0, 2, 4, 6 or 8), water only on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
- No watering on Mondays. It gives the water system a chance to recharge.
- No watering between noon and 6 p.m. from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
- Are there any restrictions to using my drip irrigation?
None! You can use your drip irrigation any day. We recommend a drip system audit to check your drip lines for problems to ensure minimal water waste.
- Why can't we water from 1-5 p.m.?
During the hottest parts of the day, most of the water applied on your lawn during those hours evaporates and doesn't reach the plants' root system.

With the beauty of the high desert comes a responsibility for water management. Reno Lawn & Landscape has developed an excellent and unique water management program for your property.
Your landscape is easily one of your most expensive and important investments.
- Out of town frequently?
- Rental property owner?
Frequent valve breaks?
- Wasted water causing issues?
Ours is a proactive approach designed to find and fix small problems before they become large & expensive!
- Homeowners with automated irrigation systems are most likely to over-water landscapes.
- Plants stressed by excess water are more susceptible to disease and pest infestations.
- Problems may include dry spots in lawn, wash outs from sprinklers or drip, and/or plant material stress.
Charges - Per visit charges include a visible inspection of your lawn and any clock adjustments as necessary.
Larger properties might take more time and we'll make sure you're aware of any additional fees before we begin the work.
If repairs are required then our regular charges apply and the initial charge is waived.
Schedule - Weather permitting, there are normally 15 inspections per year: 2 in May, 2 in June, 4 in July, 4 in August, 2 in September, and 1 in October.
Appointments? - Yes, under special circumstances, but not on a regular basis. An appointment for the first call of the day can be set to guarantee an exact time or we can set an arrival timeframe within a two-hour timespan.
