purchased a second home. Yard was trenched to add an irrigation
system and some but not all trenches have pvc pipe in them and
even some have been capped at specific irrigation sprinkler head
locations. For whatever reason they never finished. Trenches
were not filled back in. However there is nothing attached to
the house. There further appears to be a rain guage of some sort
installed on roof.      Question is .. is it worth completing
the job ? I am not sure the house is worth a huge yard expense.
PErhaps 1/4 to 1/2 acre (closer to 1/4) is to be irrigated. What
are my considerations as I suspect a company will just charge me
from scratch although the trenching is done already. Not sure
really. What would the estimated remaining costs be for the
connection to the water line at house, manifold, timers, etc.
Thanks to all in ad
