Repair Warranty

Sprinkler repair in Dallas-Fort Worth covers broken heads, leaking valves, underground pipe breaks, wiring failures, and controller malfunctions. Brandon Surratt, TCEQ Licensed Irrigator LI0023963 and EPA WaterSense Certified Irrigation Auditor, has repaired irrigation systems across DFW for over 10 years. The first thing we check on every property is the overall condition — grass stress patterns, heads sitting too high above grade, exposed drip line, and the state of the backflow preventer. That quick assessment often tells us where the real problems are before we even turn the system on. Every repair includes a 3-year warranty on parts and labor. We service all brands — Hunter, Rain Bird, Toro, Irritrol, Rachio, and Orbit — and most repairs are completed in 1 to 2 hours.

How We Price

Flat-Rate Pricing — Know the Cost Before We Start

We quote a flat rate for every repair. Before any work begins, you'll know exactly what it costs — no surprises, no running clock.

Our pricing is based on the parts needed, the labor involved, and the conditions we can see — things like tree roots, rocky soil, or tight valve box access. If we dig in and find something unexpected that changes the scope, we'll bring you a revised estimate and explain what we found. If we can't come to an agreement, we're happy to put the dirt back the way we found it and walk away — we're not here to corner anyone into a repair they're not comfortable with.

Most service calls fall in the $250 to $600 range, depending on what's going on with your system.

From the Field

What Damages Irrigation Systems Most

Fences

New fence installations are the single biggest source of irrigation damage we see. Fence posts cut zone wires, and sometimes the fence line shifts six inches and suddenly heads are buried under the new fence. If you're planning a fence project, call us first — a quick valve and line locate can save hundreds in repairs.

Driveways and Corners

Heads along driveways take a beating, especially on corner lots where cars cut into the alley. Older installs with rigid connections snap when the ground softens after rain and a tire rolls over them. Heads on flexible swing pipe absorb the impact. If yours are on rigid risers, converting to flex pipe is one of the best sprinkler head upgrades you can make.

Trees

If you have a valve box within three or four feet of a tree, it needs to move. Roots don't just block access — they crack valve bodies, crush pipes, and grow through fittings. Moving it now is a fraction of the cost of dealing with root damage and valve repair later, and it's not just the valve — the lines around it need to move too.

We believe your irrigation system should be invisible, efficient, and flawlessly reliable.

Using only commercial-grade components from Hunter, RainBird, and Rachio, we ensure that every irrigation repair we perform meets the highest standards of Texas landscape engineering.

Frequently Asked Questions

The most common repairs include broken or damaged sprinkler heads, bad nozzles, valve failures causing zones not to turn on or off, broken pipes or leaks (often caused by bad glue joints from the original installation), wiring issues preventing controller communication, and clogged or misaligned heads. Most issues can be diagnosed and repaired in a single visit.
A good rule of thumb: if the cost to repair is half or more of what a full replacement would cost, replacement is the better investment. A well-maintained sprinkler system can last 30-40 years, so age alone isn't the deciding factor. We provide honest assessments and recommend whichever option saves you more in the long run.
Most sprinkler repairs take 1-2 hours. Simple repairs like replacing heads or fixing a valve can often be done in under an hour. More complex issues like underground pipe repairs may take 2-4 hours. We provide time estimates before starting work.
Yes. We offer a flat 3-year warranty on all parts and labor. If a manufacturer warranty exceeds 3 years, we will exchange the part under that warranty, but labor is not covered beyond our 3-year guarantee. Our workmanship is guaranteed — if something we repaired fails within that window, we make it right at no additional charge.
Same-day service is sometimes available but not guaranteed, and there is an additional charge for same-day scheduling. Call us as early in the day as possible to check availability. We do our best to prioritize emergency leak repairs.
We repair all brands, no exceptions. Hunter, Rain Bird, Toro, Irritrol, Rachio, Orbit — whatever your system runs, we work on it. Our technicians carry common parts on their trucks for faster repairs.
Uneven watering usually comes from mismatched head types or zones that cover areas with very different microclimates. A spray head puts down 1.5–1.8 inches per hour; a rotor puts down 0.6–0.8 inches. Mixed on the same zone, one area floods while the other stays dry. We can often correct this by swapping nozzles to match precipitation rates without reworking your whole system.
Rusted or broken backflow handles mean you can't shut your system off in an emergency — a broken pipe can waste thousands of gallons before anyone notices. If the backflow itself is still functional, we can add a dedicated shutoff valve downstream. If it's corroded beyond use, it needs replacement. Don't force a stuck handle — corroded handles can snap the stem and turn a simple fix into a much bigger problem.
This is usually a zone design issue. Areas with different sun exposure, slope, or head types on the same zone can't be balanced with one runtime. North Texas clay also absorbs water at only 0.2–0.4 inches per hour, while spray heads apply 1.5+ inches per hour — so excess runs off rather than soaking in. We can improve coverage by swapping to lower precipitation rate nozzles in problem areas and using cycle-and-soak scheduling on a smart controller.
A single broken sprinkler head can waste around 10 gallons per minute — roughly 2,000 gallons per month on a typical watering schedule. It also creates low pressure on the zone, so the rest of your heads don't get full flow. Broken heads aren't always obvious — a cracked casing might seep at ground level instead of spraying visibly. Running a manual cycle once a month and walking each zone is the best way to catch these early.
