Irrigation
Season Start Up - late april to June
After a long, cold winter, it can be very damaging to your irrigation system to simply turn it on. It is possible for a novice to cause significant damage to a system by refilling the pipes incorrectly. Doing so may cause a surge of pressure that can burst fittings, cause eruptions in your lawn and even cause a system to fail.
Our sprinkler system start up services prepare your in-ground sprinklers for the season the right way and ensure that they will be in tip-top shape throughout the warm weather months. By identifying and fixing any issues at the beginning of the season, you can avoid problems pertaining to wasted water or dry, neglected areas of your property.

Refilling the system with water

Operating each zone from the irrigation controller
Checking each sprinkler head for operation and coverage
