Sprinkler system repair/installation in Yonkers, NY

Designing a new sprinkler system

A sprinkler system that waters evenly starts on paper. We measure the yard, note sun and shade, identify slopes, and check the water pressure and flow available at the house. Those numbers decide how many heads each zone can run at once and what type of head suits each area: rotors for open lawn, spray heads for smaller sections, and drip lines for beds, shrubs, and foundation plantings where overhead spray would waste water.

Zones are grouped by what they water and how much sun they get, so a shady side yard isn't soaked on the same schedule as a south-facing front lawn. Heads are spaced so each one throws water to the next, which avoids the brown circles and soggy patches that come from guesswork layouts. A properly installed backflow device protects your household drinking water from the irrigation lines.

Common sprinkler repairs

Most sprinkler problems fall into a few categories. Heads get broken by mowers, snow removal, and foot traffic. Nozzles clog and spray unevenly. Valves stick open and keep a zone running, or stick closed and leave it dry. Buried lines crack from roots or freezing, showing up as a constantly wet spot or a sudden drop in pressure. Wiring between the controller and valves can be cut during landscaping.

We troubleshoot zone by zone so the actual failure is found and fixed, instead of replacing parts at random. Where an older system has been patched many times, we can also discuss whether upgrading the controller or re-zoning parts of the yard would make more sense than continuing to chase repairs.
