Sprinkler repairs

Why is one part of my lawn dry?

Uneven coverage, a damaged head, a clogged nozzle, or a pressure problem can leave dry patches. We check the affected zone before recommending a repair. Learn about head and coverage repairs.

Why will one zone not turn on?

The cause may be in the controller settings, wiring, valve, solenoid, or water supply. Tell us whether other zones are working. See valve troubleshooting.

What should I do if water keeps running?

If you can safely identify the irrigation shutoff, turn the sprinkler water off and call for service. A controller set to off may not stop water passing through a stuck valve. Read the complete shutoff guide.

How much does a sprinkler repair cost?

It depends on the diagnosis, parts, access, and time needed. Call for current service charges. We discuss the work and pricing for your property before the repair. See what affects repair cost.

Timers and watering

How long should each zone run?

There is no single run time that fits every lawn. Nozzle type, coverage, soil, slope, weather, plant needs, and local restrictions all matter. We can check your system and help adjust the schedule.

Why does my controller water twice?

Multiple start times or overlapping programs can repeat watering. Review the programs and start times, or ask us to check them during a visit. Read the repeated-watering checklist.

Can you help with a smart controller?

Yes. We can discuss compatible options and setup. A smart controller still needs correct settings and working sprinkler heads. See controller service.

Seasonal service

When should I winterize?

Arrange winterization before freezing weather threatens your system. Timing depends on the forecast and your system. Call ahead for seasonal availability. Learn about winterization.

Can I blow out the system myself?

Compressed air can damage equipment or cause injury if the procedure is wrong. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s instructions and use a qualified professional when you are unsure.

Booking and service areas

Do you serve my address?

We serve Logan and surrounding Cache Valley communities. Call with your address to confirm availability.

What should I have ready when I call?

Your service address, a callback number, and a short description of the problem. Mention the affected zone and whether water is actively leaking.
