Real-Time Control for Irrigation Operations

Running an irrigation/sprinkler service means handling site surveys, zone mapping, installs, seasonal start-ups and winterization, backflow testing, leak detection, valve/nozzle repairs, controller programming, drip conversions, and emergency line breaks — often across multiple properties and water-use rules. Teams need live visibility of who’s on-site, which zones are in scope, what parts are issued, and where work is slipping. That’s why Shifton delivers a field service platform built for Irrigation — clear statuses, accurate assignments, and clean handoffs between office, techs, and property managers.

This irrigation-ready Field Service solution routes work orders, assigns the right technician to the right system (rotors, sprays, drip, smart controllers), and tracks progress and on-site time in real time. Whether you’re commissioning a new install, winterizing manifolds, or troubleshooting pressure/flow issues, Shifton keeps tasks organized, auditable, and off messy chat threads.

With Shifton, providers cut return visits, prevent missed steps (zone checks, backflow forms, controller programs), and deliver photo-backed proof of work. You get operational control across neighborhoods, tighter compliance, and a better client experience.
