Most plumbers don’t want to work on exterior plumbing in the landscape with the expectation of main line replacements. A general rule is if the repair is required on a line before the split to the irrigation system, then call a plumber. If the leak is anywhere on the irrigation main line or after, then call an irrigation service. Most plumbers don’t want to work in an area that they need to dig up a landscape. Our team installs landscapes and can take your yard apart and put it back together.
Overhead sprinklers are good for lawns or planters that have many plants, planting schemes that will change and don’t want a limited planting area or for more established landscapes. Drip systems are ideal on new installations where the plant roots are only in one area, or where you want to conserve water. There is no perfect system, you may start with one and as the plants mature you may need to change to another type.
In ground valves are ideal when you don’t want to see the valves and don’t mind paying extra for the installation and repairs. The real advantage is their hidden nature and how they are protected from sun rays and accidental damage. Above ground valves are ideal when you want to be able to see your valves and have lower install/repair cost. Above ground valves are common in Southern California residential properties since we don’t get to freezing temperatures and space in the yard is often limited.
After a plant gets watered the area should be wet but not muddy. If the plants, get watered in the morning there should be some sign of water by later afternoon still. If there is no sign of water the plant may require more irrigation. If there are signs of mud, then the frequency or run time of the zone may need to be decreased.
