✔ Homeowner Education
We explain how your system works and how to maintain it properly.
WIRING DIAGNOSTIC
Multi-Wire System Diagnostic
You have multiple wires running to your irrigation system. We find out which one — if any — is causing the problem.
Irrigation systems run on a network of wires buried underground. Over time, those wires can get nicked by shovels, corroded by moisture, or just wear out. When a wire fails, your system stops working — and it's nearly impossible to find the break without the right equipment. We use professional-grade testing tools to trace every wire, find the exact break or fault, and show you exactly where the problem is.
What's Included:
✅ We test every wire connected to your irrigation system
✅ We find the exact location of any break, short, or fault
✅ We check for water damage or corrosion along the wire path
✅ You get a written report showing what we found and where
✅ We tell you exactly what needs to be repaired and what it will cost
✅ Works with all major irrigation brands (Rain Bird, Hunter, Toro, Irritrol)
Ideal For: Zones that won't turn on | Wiring damaged by landscaping | Systems with intermittent failures
⏱ Most completed in 1–2 hours
IRRIGATION PUMP DIAGNOSTIC
Pump Diagnostic
Your pump runs your whole system. If it's not working right, nothing is. We find out exactly what's wrong.
Your irrigation pump is what pushes water through the system. If it's running but not pumping well, making strange noises, or not turning on at all — there's a problem. It could be electrical, mechanical, or something simpler like a clog or airlock. We run a full diagnostic on your pump to find the root cause, check the power supply, inspect the motor and moving parts, and give you a straight answer: fix it or replace it — and what either option will cost.
What's Included:
✅ We check the power going to your pump (voltage and amperage)
✅ We inspect the motor, impeller, and seals for wear or damage
✅ We test for airlocks, clogs, and priming issues
✅ We use a thermal camera to check for overheating
✅ We review pump settings and programming if it's a variable-speed model
✅ You get a written report: what's wrong, fix vs. replace recommendation, and cost estimate
Ideal For: Pump won't turn on | Low water pressure across zones | Pump runs but system doesn't water
⏱ Most completed in 1–2 hours
System Health Check
We evaluate every critical component in your irrigation system and pinpoint any issue affecting performance.
Full-System Performance Evaluation Your irrigation system relies on a network of electrical, mechanical, and hydraulic components working together. When one part starts to fail, performance frops- and small issues can turn into expensive repairs. Our System Health Check gives you a complete, professional-grade assessment of your entire system.
What's Included:
✅ Full inspection of all major electrical & mechanical components
✅ Verification of controller, wiring, valves, zones, and communication paths
✅ Pump pressure, flow, and amperage performance review
✅ Identification of wear, inefficiencies, or impending failures
✅ Clear report outlining findings and recommended next steps
✅ Works with all major irrigation brands (Rain Bird, Hunter, Toro, Irritrol)
Ideal For: Routine maintenance | System performance issues | Preventing costly failures
⏱ Most completed in 1–2 hours
CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING
Timer & Controller Programming
Your irrigation controller is the brain of your system. If it's programmed wrong, you're either overwatering or underwatering — and wasting money either way.
A lot of people set their irrigation timer once and never touch it again. But schedules need to change with the seasons, and a wrong setting can cost you hundreds in water bills or kill your lawn. We review your entire schedule, fix any conflicts or errors, and set it up correctly for your property, your plants, and the time of year. We also connect rain sensors and smart features if your controller supports them — so your system automatically adjusts when it rains.
What's Included:
✅ We review your current schedule and spot any errors or inefficiencies
✅ We fix overlapping zones, wrong run times, and incorrect cycle settings
✅ We update your schedule for the current season
✅ We connect and test your rain sensor if you have one
✅ We set up smart watering adjustments if your controller supports it
✅ You get a printed and digital copy of your new schedule to keep
Ideal For: High water bills | Brown spots despite regular watering | New controller installation | Seasonal schedule update
⏱ Most completed in 1–2 hours
DECODER SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC
2-Wire Path Diagnostic
Got a newer irrigation system with just two main wires? We specialize in diagnosing exactly these systems.
Some modern irrigation systems — especially larger ones — use just two wires to control every single zone on your property. It's efficient, but when something goes wrong, the whole system can go down at once. Most general contractors don't have the tools to diagnose these systems. We do. We test each connection point along the line, pinpoint the exact location of the problem, and give you a clear map of what's failing and why.
What's Included:
✅ We test every control point (called a "decoder") on your system individually
✅ We find any breaks or shorts in the two-wire path
✅ We check for signal problems that stop zones from responding
✅ You get a diagram showing where each problem is located
✅ Works with Hunter, Rain Bird, Toro, and Irritrol 2-wire systems
✅ Includes a summary of any reprogramming needed after repairs
Ideal For: Large residential properties | HOAs and commercial sites | Systems where multiple zones stopped at once
⏱ 2–4 hours depending on system size
