Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a sprinkler zone not turning on?
A zone that stays silent is usually a stuck or failed valve, a wiring break between the controller and the valve, or a clogged solenoid. A technician traces the zone wire and tests the valve directly to isolate which one it is.
How do I know if a sprinkler valve is broken?
Common signs are a zone that won’t shut off, water pooling at the valve box, a hissing sound underground, or a zone that never activates on schedule.
What causes geysers or pooling water in the yard?
A geyser is almost always a cracked or separated pipe fitting underground, often from tree roots, freeze damage, or a mower impact. It needs to be dug up and rejoined at the break point.
Do you repair Rain Bird and Hunter controllers?
Yes — our technicians work on the major residential controller brands, including Rain Bird ESP series controllers, and can reprogram, rewire, or replace a faulty control box.
