Irrigation Repair and Installation in Winter Springs
We fix sprinkler systems that waste water, miss spots or won't turn on, and we install new ones that fit your yard. We test every zone, show you what's wrong and explain the fix before any work starts. Nothing gets dug up until you say yes.
Sprinklers that water the lawn, not the street
Most systems we see aren't broken all at once. A head gets clipped by a mower, a valve sticks open, a root cracks a lateral line. The lawn shows it first with a brown patch here and a soggy spot there, and the water bill shows it next.
Our sandy soil drains fast, so grass needs water at the right time and in the right amount. A system that's off by a few minutes or a few feet can burn up a lawn in a dry spring, then rot roots in the summer rains. We set yours to water what each zone actually needs and to follow the local watering-day rules.
If a storm dropped a limb or tipped a tree and tore up your lines, we photograph the damage before we repair it. You get those photos and a written list of what broke. Whether it's covered is up to your insurance company, but you'll have clear records to hand them.
What our irrigation work covers
- Full system check
- We run every zone and watch each head spray. We look for clogged nozzles, sunken or tilted heads, overspray onto the driveway and dry gaps between heads.
- Leak and line repair
- We dig carefully at wet spots, find the cracked pipe or fitting and replace that section. Then we refill the trench and set the sod back in place.
- Valves and controllers
- Sticky valves, bad solenoids and cut wires are common causes of a zone that won't shut off or won't start. We repair or replace them and program the controller around your watering days.
- Rain sensor
- Florida requires automatic systems to have a working rain shutoff. We test yours, replace it if it's dead, and install one if your system never had it.
- New systems and added zones
- For a new yard or a redone bed, we lay out zones by sun, shade and plant type so turf and shrubs don't share a schedule. This pairs well with our sod installation and landscape design work.
- Damage photos and notes
- When storm debris or a fallen tree broke part of the system, we document it before repairs and give you the photos with a written list of parts and labor.
Signs your sprinkler system needs work
Brown stripes or dry circles
Usually a clogged nozzle, a head that's not popping up, or heads spaced too far apart.
Puddles or a spongy spot
Water pooling in the same place between runs often means a cracked line or a valve that won't fully close.
A water bill that jumped
If you haven't changed your schedule, a hidden leak is the likely cause.
A zone that won't turn on or off
Often a bad solenoid, a cut wire or a controller problem. Leaving it can flood a bed or dry out a section of lawn.
Damage after a storm
Broken heads, exposed pipe or a tree that came down over a zone. Get photos before cleanup if you can, then have the lines checked.
What affects the price of irrigation work
A single broken head is a small job. A new system for a full yard is a bigger one. We price after we've seen the system run, and the estimate lists each part and the labor so you know where the money goes.
Number of problems found
One cracked line costs less than several worn valves and a dozen tired heads. We tell you which repairs matter most if you'd like to spread them out.
Where the break is
A leak under open lawn is quick to reach. One under a paver walk, a tree root or a thick bed takes more digging and care.
Age of the system
Older systems often have brittle pipe and parts that are hard to match. Sometimes replacing a zone costs less over time than patching it again and again.
New zones and yard size
For new installs, the number of zones, pipe runs and heads sets most of the cost. If a full system is a big spend, we offer financing up to $100,000. Terms run from 2 to 12 years, and you can pay it off early with no penalty.
How an irrigation visit goes
- 1
Walk the yard with you
We come out, run each zone and talk through what you've noticed. The walkthrough and estimate are free.
- 2
Show you what we found
You see the problem heads, wet spots or damaged lines, with photos. We tell you if it's a simple repair or if parts of the system are past fixing.
- 3
Written estimate
You get a line-item price for parts and labor by phone or in hand. No work starts until you approve it.
- 4
Repair and test
We fix what's broken, replace sod over any trenches, and run every zone again to check coverage. We set the controller and walk you through the schedule before we leave.
Irrigation questions we hear
Will my homeowners insurance pay for storm damage to my sprinklers?
Sometimes, depending on your policy and what caused the damage. We can't tell you what your insurer will decide, and we don't act as your adjuster. What we do is photograph the damage before repairs and give you a written list of what broke and what it costs to fix. That's the kind of record most claims start with.
How long should each zone run?
It depends on the head type, sun and soil. Spray heads and rotors put down water at very different rates, so they shouldn't run the same minutes. We set each zone on its own and show you how to adjust it when the rainy season starts or ends.
Will fixing a leak wreck my lawn?
No. We open up the ground right over the break and nowhere else. The grass comes up in squares, sits off to the side while we replace the pipe, then goes back down and gets watered in. After a couple of weeks the patch usually blends right in.
Who's working in my yard, and am I covered if something goes wrong?
We're a family-owned company, and the people digging near your lines and around your home are our own crew. We carry business licensing and full insurance, so you're not taking on the risk of the job.
Should I repair my old system or replace it?
If the pipe is in good shape and the problems are heads and valves, repair usually makes sense. If lines keep cracking or the layout never covered the yard well, replacing some or all zones can be the better spend. We'll give you both numbers and let you decide.
Get your system checked before the next dry spell
We'll run every zone with you, show you what's working and what isn't, and give you a written price. If storm damage is part of it, you'll get photos for your records too.
