About Automatic Rain
Automatic Rain is a local, licensed Memphis irrigation company serving all of Shelby County. We design, install, repair, and maintain sprinkler and drip systems that save water and keep your landscape healthy — backed by fast, neighborly service.
Built on reliable, local service
Gary Reed founded Automatic Rain in 1987, and the name has served Memphis ever since. When new local ownership took over in 2026, the crews, equipment and customers all came along (Gary is still part of the team), and so did the goal: an irrigation company Memphis-area homeowners and businesses can actually count on — one that shows up, does professional-grade work, and charges fairly. From new installs to seasonal service, we treat every system like it is our own.
As a Memphis irrigation company, we know what local lawns are up against: long, hot, humid summers, heavy spring rains, and the occasional hard freeze that can crack an unprotected pipe. That’s why we focus on water-efficient zoning, proper backflow protection, and well-timed spring startups and fall blowouts. If you want to dig deeper into efficient outdoor watering, the EPA WaterSense program is a great homeowner resource — and we’re always happy to answer questions during your free quote visit.
