A healthy lawn and garden need the right amount of water at the right time. A well-planned irrigation system makes this easier, whether you have a small garden, a large lawn or a shared outdoor space.
Kinsley Irrigation provides irrigation services in Burnaby, BC, for residential, commercial and strata properties. We handle new system installations, sprinkler repairs, system upgrades and seasonal maintenance. From a small home garden to a larger commercial landscape, we can help you find a practical way to water your outdoor space.
Burnaby has a mix of property types, from detached homes with large gardens to townhouses, high-rise buildings and busy commercial spaces. Each one has different watering needs.
A home in South Slope may have sloped garden areas that need careful water coverage. A property near Metrotown may have smaller landscaped areas, planters and shared outdoor spaces. Commercial sites often need irrigation across lawns, garden beds and entrances.
One irrigation setup will not suit every property. The system should match the size of the area, the plants you have and how the outdoor space is used.

Whether you are starting from scratch or dealing with a problem in an existing system, we offer a range of irrigation services in Burnaby.
A new inground irrigation system can make lawn and garden care easier. We plan the sprinkler layout around the areas that need water, helping provide even coverage without wasting water on paths, driveways or other surfaces.
Sprinkler heads can become blocked, damaged or misaligned over time. We can help with sprinkler installation, repairs and adjustments so your system works as it should.
Leaks, broken pipes, faulty valves and poor water coverage can affect the whole system. We can check the problem and recommend the repairs or upgrades needed to get it working properly again.
We work with homeowners, businesses and property managers. This includes irrigation for private lawns, gardens, shared outdoor areas and commercial landscapes.
A smart controller gives you more control over your watering schedule. Depending on the model, it can use local weather information or other settings to adjust watering times and help reduce unnecessary water use.
The right system does more than turn sprinklers on and off. It helps make sure water reaches the areas that need it.
An irrigation system needs attention during the year. Small checks can help catch problems before they affect your lawn or garden.
After winter, the system needs to be checked before regular watering begins. Spring start-up includes getting the system ready for use and checking for issues that may have developed during the colder months.
A sprinkler head may move, a valve may stop working or a section of lawn may start looking dry. A mid-season check helps identify these problems and keep the system running properly.
Burnaby winters can bring freezing temperatures. Water left inside irrigation pipes and equipment can freeze and cause damage. Winterization prepares the system for the colder months.

Backflow prevention is an important part of many irrigation systems. It helps stop water from flowing in the wrong direction and potentially entering the clean water supply.
Some irrigation connections require a backflow prevention device and regular testing under local rules. Kinsley Irrigation offers backflow testing to help property owners and managers look after this part of their system.
If you manage a commercial or strata property, it is worth checking the testing requirements that apply to your site.
Watering needs change with the weather and the time of year. A system that runs too often can waste water, while one that does not run enough can leave lawns and plants dry.
Burnaby follows Metro Vancouver’s seasonal watering restrictions, which generally run from May 1 to October 15. The rules can change depending on the water restriction stage. Check the City of Burnaby’s current watering restrictions before setting your watering schedule.
A few simple steps can also help you use water wisely:
A smart controller can help manage watering times, but it should always be set to follow the current local restrictions.

There is no fixed number. It depends on the size of the property, water pressure, sprinkler type and the areas being watered. A larger lawn or a property with several garden beds may need more zones than a small yard.
Low pressure can happen because of a leak, a blocked sprinkler head, a faulty valve or a problem with the water supply. If several sprinkler heads are not working properly, the system may need an inspection.
It is generally better to water deeply and allow the grass to dry before mowing. Mowing wet grass can make it harder to get an even cut and may leave clumps across the lawn.
Yes. Many sprinkler heads can be adjusted to change their spray direction, distance or pattern. The correct adjustment helps keep water on the lawn and garden instead of nearby surfaces.
A sprinkler system sprays water over an area, making it useful for lawns and larger planted spaces. Drip irrigation sends water slowly through small outlets near plant roots, which can work well for garden beds, shrubs and individual plants.
Uneven growth can be linked to different amounts of sunlight, soil conditions, drainage or watering coverage. If one section receives less water than the rest, the sprinkler layout or schedule may need attention.
Some irrigation systems can be designed to use stored rainwater, depending on the water source, pump, storage setup and local requirements. The system needs to be planned properly so it can supply enough water to the areas being irrigated.
