Galvanized manifolds are a ticking time bomb

Many older homes still have sprinkler valves sitting on galvanized steel pipe. Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside out, so it can look fine right up until it breaks — usually at the threads, right under the valves, and often while nobody's home. If your valves sit on rusty metal pipe, we can replace the manifold with new PVC and fresh valves before it fails.

We dig carefully, make the repair, test the zone under pressure and put your yard back the way we found it — or better.

Is high water pressure breaking your sprinklers?

When the water pressure coming into a home is too high, sprinkler parts take a beating: heads mist instead of spray, fittings blow apart and valves wear out early. If you keep having the same leaks, we'll put a gauge on the line and check. A properly set pressure regulator protects your whole system.
