FAQ

Regular maintenance of your irrigation system is essential to ensure your lawns are being properly watered and that components like spray heads, valves, and timers are functioning efficiently. Ideally, a professional inspection should occur twice a year—once in the spring during startup and once in the fall to winterize the system. During these visits, a technician will check connectors, nozzles, tubing, rotors, and the irrigation controller for wear or malfunction. This also helps ensure your automatic sprinkler system is not over- or under-watering your lawn, maintaining healthy drainage and preventing water waste.

Common signs include uneven watering, low pressure, leaking valves, or malfunctioning spray heads. If parts of your lawn sprinkler system are dry while others are soggy, it could indicate a blocked nozzle, broken tubing, or issues with your drip irrigation system. You might also notice that your irrigation controller or timer is no longer turning zones on and off properly. Broken connectors, damaged hoses, or a faulty backflow preventer can also affect system performance. Don’t wait—getting repairs early can save money and keep your lawns lush and green.

Winterizing protects your lawn irrigation system from freeze damage. When water remains in tubing, valves, or rotors, it can expand and crack components. A proper blowout will clear hoses, spray heads, connectors, and the backflow device, preventing costly repairs come spring. We also recommend turning off the irrigation controller and ensuring the shut-off valve is closed. If you own a Rainbird or similar brand system, follow manufacturer instructions or have a professional service the system to ensure it’s thoroughly winterized. This proactive step saves you time and money long-term.

A drip irrigation system delivers water directly to the roots through tubing and small connectors, making it more efficient for gardens and flower beds. Unlike a lawn sprinkler system with spray heads or rotors, which cover large areas, drip systems minimize evaporation and runoff. They work well in areas where precise watering is essential and where overwatering can cause problems with drainage. You can connect a drip system to an irrigation controller or timer for automatic watering, just like an automatic sprinkler setup. It’s a great choice for targeted hydration.

If your irrigation system isn’t starting, first check the timer or irrigation controller—it might be off or set incorrectly. Next, inspect the shut-off valve to make sure it’s open. Damaged connectors, corroded valves, or broken wiring could also be to blame. Sometimes, the problem lies with specific zones—such as a stuck rotor or clogged nozzle. If your system includes Rainbird components, reset the controller and verify that spray heads are functioning. For persistent issues, professional troubleshooting ensures your lawns get watered correctly without damaging the system.

Yes! Older lawn irrigation systems can often be retrofitted with smart controllers, moisture sensors, and efficient spray heads or drip irrigation systems. Upgrading to a modern irrigation controller or Rainbird timer allows for precise watering schedules based on weather conditions. Swapping outdated nozzles, rotors, and valves with water-saving models reduces waste and promotes healthier lawns. Many upgrades are compatible with existing connectors, tubing, and hoses, so you don’t have to start from scratch. Efficiency upgrades also improve drainage, reduce utility costs, and align with eco-friendly landscaping practices.

Spring startups are crucial to get your automatic sprinkler system running smoothly after winter. Begin by turning on the shut-off valve slowly to avoid pressure surges. Then check for visible leaks in hoses, tubing, and connectors. Reactivate your irrigation controller or timer, and test each zone to ensure valves, nozzles, spray heads, and rotors operate properly. Make sure your backflow preventer is secure and functioning. If you use Rainbird or similar systems, follow the startup guide or consult a pro. This process ensures your lawns are evenly and efficiently watered all season.

“George was one of the few contractors who even called me back to rebuild my sprinkler valve box. He had a cancellation one day and came over the same day to do the work. It’s clear he knew exactly what he was doing, and in a few hours totally rebuilt my valve box. My sprinkler system has been dead for seven years, but now it works. He tested everything and gave me some recommendations about upgrading my sprinkler heads.”
