About Whistler Irrigation

Established people. Long-term responsibility.

Professional irrigation management, service and construction in Whistler and Pemberton since 1988.

Our foundation

Local experience built on national industry leadership.

Whistler Irrigation Services was founded by Paul Hauschka and his father, who previously spent 14 years as President of Rain Bird Canada.

That background brought manufacturer-level technical expertise and advanced irrigation standards to Whistler. It shaped a service philosophy based on sound design, precise work, reliable operation and accountability for each system over the long term.

Since then, the company has designed and installed more than 1,000 irrigation systems and grown to serve more than 1,300 residential and commercial clients annually.

Experience with continuity

Knowledge that accumulates instead of starting over.

01

Long-standing client relationships

Most service clients have relied on Whistler Irrigation for well over a decade, and many relationships extend considerably longer. That history gives each season valuable context.

02

An exceptionally experienced team

Most service staff have been with the company for more than 25 years. Their familiarity with Whistler systems and operating conditions supports consistent, informed work.

03

Detailed property knowledge

Technicians often know a property’s layout, service history, recurring concerns and seasonal requirements—and in many cases our team originally designed or installed the system. Digital as-built records and long-term service history travel with the technician.

Full-responsibility management

We manage how the system performs over time.

Landscapes mature. Components wear. Weather, exposure, construction and planting changes affect both scheduling and coverage. Our role is to recognize those changes and keep the system operating properly throughout the season and over the years. Whistler Irrigation also helped develop the professional IIABC standards used for landscape irrigation design and installation in British Columbia.

  • Spring startup and detailed system assessment
  • Controller programming and seasonal scheduling
  • Monitoring, performance adjustments and coverage corrections
  • System repairs and coordinated property service
  • Backflow testing, repair and required documentation
  • Winterization, upgrades, redesign and new construction

Whistler & Pemberton expertise

Specialized knowledge for mountain properties.

Mountain terrain, a short operating season and freezing winters create irrigation requirements that are different from those in milder regions.

Our technicians understand the conditions, property types and irrigation infrastructure found throughout Whistler and Pemberton. That familiarity helps us diagnose problems efficiently, make informed recommendations and coordinate work with owners, strata representatives, managers, landscapers and contractors.
