Irrigation Maintenance and Repairs

Services Include:

Pond Cleaning

To keep your pond looking and functioning as it should, we recommend that your pond receive a full professional cleaning at least once per year. Neglecting your pond could result in increased maintenance over the long run or fish health issues if that is a concern. Typically, we recommend having your pond cleaned in the spring.

Basic maintenance includes checking your pond’s hardware, cleaning the debris basket and filter pad, checking and fixing any shifted rocks in your aquascape, checking your pond’s liner edges, and adding any necessary water treatments.

*Pond cleaning may be added to any maintenance package.

Irrigation and Water Systems Start-Up

After a long winter, we recommend scheduling a start-up appointment to get your system functioning again to ensure its operation is at peak performance for the season. If you had your irrigation system properly shut off in the fall, this appointment should be a breeze! Our trained service technicians will perform a 10-point checkup that includes:

  • Activate water and pressurize main line

  • Test backflow, if required

  • Check all zones and valves for leaks

  • Test for clogged spray nozzles

  • Check for damaged or non-rotating heads

  • Raise sunken heads/straighten crooked heads

  • Check sprinkler head coverage

  • Test rain sensor

  • Replace battery in controller

  • Set controller accordingly

 

Fall Winterization

As we enter the fall season and the cold weather nears, it is necessary to prepare your irrigation system or water feature for winter. This eliminates the chances of freezing and possible damage. Our technicians will perform the following procedures:

  • Shut all water off to irrigation

  • Drain and remove backflow if outdoors

  • Use a towable commercial grade air compressor to flush out lines

  • Open and flush any garden spigots

  • Shut down controller

  • Note any damage for spring repairs
