When should I winterize my sprinkler system in Clinton Township?
Schedule blowouts in fall, before sustained freezing temps. We purge each zone with controlled air volume/PSI to protect pipes, valves, and backflow parts.
When should I turn the system back on in spring?
After the freeze risk passes and the ground has thawed. We re-pressurize slowly, check for winter damage, and program your controller for spring weather.
One zone won’t turn on — what’s going on?
Likely a bad solenoid, wiring fault, or a controller channel issue. We test each component and repair the failing link.
My zone won’t shut off — can you fix that?
Yes. A stuck valve diaphragm or debris can keep a zone running. We clean/replace parts and get the valve sealing again.
Why is my lawn soggy in one area?
Common causes are a slow valve seep, a lateral line leak, or misaligned heads. We isolate the zone, make the repair, then rebalance run times to stop the waste.
I have dry spots even though the system runs — what should I check?
Head elevation and aim, nozzle clogging, pressure, and head type mismatches. We tune spacing and nozzles for even coverage.
Heads aren’t popping up fully — is that pressure or clogging?
Either (or both). We verify pressure, clean or replace clogged nozzles, and raise/straighten any sunken heads.
Do you replace irrigation controllers and set up smart timers?
Absolutely. We install new controllers, migrate schedules, enable weather-based watering, and label zones so it’s easy to use.
My rain sensor isn’t working — can you troubleshoot it?
Yes — we test wiring and sensor function, replace bad sensors, and ensure the controller respects rain delays.
Do you repair backflow assemblies?
Yes, we repair leaking or freeze-damaged assemblies and related piping (note: certified testing is not provided here).
Are there watering restrictions I should know about?
Always follow Clinton Township/utility guidance for watering schedules and any seasonal limits. If restrictions are issued, we’ll help you adjust your timer accordingly.
Do you install new systems in Clinton Township?
Yes — from design to final programming. We size zones, choose the right heads/nozzles, and set efficient run times for local conditions.
Can you move or add sprinkler heads during landscaping changes?
Yes. We relocate heads, add zones when needed, and prevent overspray onto walkways and driveways.
Do you work on commercial properties?
We service retail, office, and HOA common areas with priority scheduling and multi-zone diagnostics.
How often should my irrigation system be serviced?
At minimum: spring start-up and fall winterizing. Add a mid-season tune-up if you notice coverage issues or after hardscape changes.
Will professional tuning really save water?
Yes. Fixing leaks, aligning heads, and right-sizing run times cuts waste and can lower your bill while improving lawn health.
How do you find underground leaks?
Pressure and isolation tests plus inspection at likely failure points (valve boxes, fittings, and past repair areas).
Do you service systems on well water?
Yes — we account for well/pump characteristics and adjust components and run times accordingly.
Can you help during a major leak or stuck valve emergency?
Call us right away at (586) 330-0069. We’ll walk you through shutting off the system and dispatch a tech.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Clear access to the controller, valve boxes, and backflow. If possible, note any wet areas or zones that behave oddly so we can go straight to the issue.
What payment methods do you accept?
Most major cards and common payment methods. We’ll confirm options when we book your visit.
Do you offer workmanship or part warranties?
Manufacturer warranties apply to new parts; workmanship is covered per the terms on your invoice.
How soon after installation can I run the system?
We’ll provide a startup schedule at handoff. Freshly seeded or sodded areas may need a different pattern initially.
Can you label zones and provide a simple watering guide?
Yes — we label zones and leave you with a quick reference so seasonal adjustments are easy.
