Irrigation & Sprinkler Systems
Newman Irrigation and Plumbing is a local sprinkler system installation company based in Glenview, IL that has been in business for over 35 years. We have installed thousands of irrigation and sprinkler systems in Chicago’s northshore.

When you choose Newman, your system will be efficient, durable, and low maintenance. Installation can be completed in as little as 2 days with zero damage to your lawn.
Our standard installations include rare or unique practices that are paid extras or sales gimmicks to our competitors. Our owner Greg personally lays out every job. Our in-house licensed plumber performs your systems water connection. All work is performed by our team. We do not use subcontractors!
We have a unique process which installs your system RPZ valve inside your home. They are expensive mechanical devices so they should be installed in the mechanical room, where they are protected from the extremes of weather.
We install automatic drains so winterizing requires no blow out. We solder all underground wire splices. We bury all our valve vault boxes out of the way. Special attention is given to sunny areas verses shady areas. We will water your flower pots with drip irrigation if desired. We will install hose spigots anywhere you desire. Timer wires are secured or fished behind walls. We will help you out by making suggestions and doing extra work. We take responsibility for all buried wires, lines or pipes, not you.
The main components used will be RainBird, the rest is a carefully selected blend of proven materials including Cresline brand 100 psi test poly pipe, the most expensive and oldest poly pipe company. The parkway heads are triangulated. The lawn and the beds receive coverage, not the lawn only.
Newman Irrigation & Plumbing is a Rain Bird Select Contractor.
