We are a service company that just happens to be in the irrigation contracting business.

Construction Services
Tanto Irrigation, LLC is dedicated to the preservation of golf through the professional installation of automated golf course irrigation systems. Tanto was founded on the core belief that if you provide quality workmanship at a fair price, news will travel fast. For over 50 years we have been providing just that for courses throughout the Northeast and the rest of the World. Tanto owns its own equipment and trains its own personnel. We travel only qualified employees who have been schooled on proper plumbing and electrical techniques. Tanto handles all installation types from PVC to HDPE, Satellite to 2-Wire, Toro to Rainbird, and everything else in between Our industry affiliations and National account status with major vendors bring all the advantages possible to your project.
Our Promise
Our business model is based on fundamental principles that provide for our consistent work product. The superintendent that begins your project will finish it. The essential part of his crew will remain the same through the life of your project. He will have well maintained equipment and the proper pieces for the job. He will have the administrative support necessary to complete his tasks in a timely and efficient manner. His crew size will be large enough to complete the work, but small enough to manage effectively. These principles are the foundation of the management philosophy that we adhere to on every project. Tanto never runs more than 6 crews domestically in order to maintain consistent quality control, which shortens both production times and punch lists. We truly are large enough to serve you, yet small enough to know you. You will be able to count on Tanto well after the contractual obligation has expired on your project. We treat each project with the respect and dignity that you as the designer, owner, superintendent, member, patron do and we hope that you would expect nothing less.

The Golf Course Superintendent
The condition of your golf course is your calling card. It is like a child, to be cared for and reared with attention to detail. . At some point, a new irrigation system is a critical component of that endeavor. Tanto takes great pride in the superintendent relationships we have developed over the years and we regularly correspond with them on irrigation issues long after our time spent on their project. We believe that we are merely a guest during our time with you, and like any good guest, our aim is to leave something better when we are gone. It may be a short-term project to some, but it’s a long-lasting relationship to us.
The Country Club
Your Club isn’t just where you play golf, it is where you relax and regain your sanity. It is a place where less is more. We understand that and that is why all our crews go about their business in a manner that is most inconspicuous. Our intention is to preserve your place of sanctuary while we are improving it. Ask around, many clients don’t even know we were there.
Tanto Service
Over the last 5 years as former clients began to have need, Tanto embarked on a service journey that can handle Irrigation emergencies in a timely manner. In addition, this group performs scheduled work such as greens loop, bunker or tee irrigation installations, two-wire conversions, head leveling, component change outs, valve and pipe repair/replacements and GPS mapping, anywhere in the US in most cases. We are excited about the growth of Tanto in this regard as it complements the installation groups promise of “Once a client, always a client”.
Anytime Anywhere
Tanto is fully functional when it comes to location. We can provide labor only services or bring the whole package to the table. We travel with little disruption to the organizational flow and support that is vital to a project’s success. We own and truck our own equipment within the Continental US and have developed dependable National rental resources to provide whatever is necessary to be productive.

This is our dedicated team who work day-in and day-out together to bring our clients the most amazing projects.
