Irrigation Zone Repair

What This Service Involves

When one zone underperforms, the affected turf browns while neighboring areas stay lush, a common sight across Puget Sound lawns by late July. A zone problem can stem from a bad valve, a broken lateral line, clogged heads, or low pressure, so we test systematically rather than guessing. We measure pressure and coverage, then correct the specific fault, whether that's replacing heads, clearing debris, or repairing the line. The zone is retested until spray patterns overlap correctly with no dry gaps or overspray.

Benefits

Restores even coverage to a failing zone; Eliminates brown spots and overspray waste; Pinpoints the true cause instead of guessing; Balances pressure across all heads; Protects turf health during dry summers

Our Process

1) Run and observe the zone's spray pattern; 2) Measure pressure and inspect each head; 3) Trace faults to valve, line, or nozzle; 4) Repair or replace the failed component; 5) Retest for even, gap-free coverage

What Affects the Cost

Number of heads and their condition; Underlying cause such as valve or line damage; Pressure correction or nozzle changes; Excavation needed for buried faults; Zone size and terrain

Best Time of Year

Best handled in spring or early summer so weak zones are corrected before drought stress reveals every dry spot.
