We confirm a system has zero pesky leaks by turning on the main ball valve or by inspecting the turn on/shut off valve. Keep in mind, each system is different and there may be additional steps needed to confirm a leak-free system.

There is a straightforward reference guide that allows us to program the controller. When doing this, it’s important to ensure the time and date settings are accurate. Keep in mind, each zone should be programmed individually, as each station has different water requirements. For example, shaded areas will require much less water compared to zones that are exposed to sunlight regularly.

We use spray sprinklers and rotors (otherwise known as gear drives). Rotors are designed for larger areas and typically cover between 18 and 30 feet. On the other hand, spray heads are designed for smaller areas and typically reach from 8 to 15 feet. As far as runtimes is concerned, spray heads run from 5 to 15 minutes, while rotor sprinklers run from 18 to 30 minutes.

If a sprinkler head does not pop up, or if it isn’t rotating, it’s likely either clogged or has damaged gears. If you’re wondering if your sprinkler heads are repairable or not, contact the experts today, as we would love to provide a complimentary inspection and determine the best route for you. Choosing the correct sprinkler system parts can be tough, and we would love to point you in the right direction.

To fix a leaking pipe, you need to locate the leak, dig up the line, saw off the broken part, and seal in a replacement part. Sprinkler line repair is complex, and best left to professionals who can do it quickly and efficiently.

If the ground feels mushy in a seemingly random area, it’s likely because of a faulty, leaking sprinkler line. You can identify a broken sprinkler line by looking for pools of water away from your sprinkler heads. Sprinkler repair service from Sprinkler Fix will quickly address your broken line issues.

Yes! Upgrading dated, ineffective irrigation parts is a significant part of our sprinkler modification services. For example, we can replace your old and worn-down sprinkler heads and nozzles with brand-new ones that are pressure compensated to reduce misting and designed to conserve water. This only scratches the surface of what we can provide. We offer upgrades for sprinkler heads, risers, and drip irrigation to give your irrigation everything it needs to stand up to the Fredericksburg heat.

We can replace your limited range, poorly-running sprinkler heads with state-of-the-art models that cover a broader area with less water. This allows us to customize your sprinkler system’s spray patterns to ensure total coverage of your yard, every section getting precisely the amount of water it needs.

The first step in upgrading your irrigation system is analyzing your yard’s dimensions and plant life and understanding how your sprinklers can offer the most effective hydration. Once you know how much water each area of your yard needs, you can modify your irrigation to match those needs.

To save the hassle, you can schedule sprinkler modification services from Sprinkler Fix and receive professional irrigation improvements.
