Yes. Estimates are free. We look at the problem and explain what we'd do before you decide.
Midland is tough on irrigation. Hard, mineral-heavy water scales over nozzles, valves and drip emitters. Caliche sits close to the surface and cracks shallow lines. Wind blows spray off the lawn, and a summer afternoon can bake any exposed part.
We've set our work up around that. Every visit starts with a look at how the system behaves, not just the one thing you noticed, so the fix you hear about is based on what we saw.
We run the zones and trace the cause first. A dry patch can be a nozzle, a valve or a broken line, and the fix is different for each.
You hear what we found, what we suggest and why. Nothing begins until you've said yes.
Hard water, caliche, wind and summer heat shape the way we choose parts and set up a repair.
Hard water leaves mineral crust in nozzles and emitters. The spray breaks up, and dry arcs appear between heads.
Rigid, uneven ground puts stress on shallow pipe. Cracks often show up as soggy spots or weak zones.
Wind carries fine spray away from the grass. Lower-angle nozzles and tuned arcs can help, as can better timing.
A dead timer or a stuck rain or freeze sensor can keep a system off, or on, when it shouldn't be.
Winter Storm Uri showed how a hard freeze can split an exposed device. The leak often appears in spring.
Fine dust and grit work into the riser so heads stay down, and a section of lawn goes dry.
Parts matched to your system and every zone tested before we say we're done.
Schedules and coverage tuned to your yard, the season and the city's watering rules.
Plain explanations of what failed, what the options are and what each involves.
Clogged emitters, split tubing, filters and regulators.

Every system is different, so we don't quote prices over the phone. The usual factors are:
We explain the work and what it involves before we start.
Not always. For work in the yard, we mainly need access to the gate, the zones and the controller. We do want to reach you to describe what we found and get your go-ahead before work begins. If the controller is inside a garage or the house, we'll arrange access.
Usually, yes. We trace the wiring, follow the pipe from the meter or backflow device and probe where it makes sense. Hard, rocky soil can slow this down, and sometimes a valve box has been buried under turf or mulch. We'll tell you what we find.
The usual suspects are a clogged nozzle, a head that's tilted or stuck down, a bad solenoid or valve, a broken wire or a leak in that zone's line. Hard water scale is a common cause here. Running the zone is the quickest way to tell which.
Don't rush to turn the system back on. First:
If anything leaks, shut the supply off and call us. Winter Storm Uri in February 2021 left a lot of damage that only showed once systems were switched back on.
The City of Midland runs a backflow prevention program, and its site says test reports are submitted through an online system. How often your irrigation device must be tested depends on the city's rules and the type of device, so check the City of Midland's backflow page or call them. Testing itself is done by a licensed backflow tester.
The City of Midland sets which days you can water, and in the past it has assigned days by whether your address is odd or even. The details can change with drought conditions, so we don't quote a schedule here. The City's Utilities page has the current one, and we can set your controller to match it.
