Frequently Asked Questions

Sprinkler Blowout

Do I need to be home at the time of service?

Because each job takes a different amount of time to complete, it is impossible to give an accurate estimated time of arrival.  Our technicians work sometimes until dark, so you can count on your service being performed on the day it is scheduled.

If you plan to be home on the day of service you can give any special instructions to the worker at that time.  If you do not plan to be home at the time of service you can just leave a note of any special instructions underneath your front door mat or taped to your front door.

Do I need to put my dog in the house on the day of service?

We love dogs.  If your dog will allow a stranger into their yard to do work, leave them out.  If your dog has had problems with contractors in the past, I would recommend putting your dog in the house for the day.

Do you repair sprinkler systems?

No.  We are not in the business of repairing sprinkler systems.

How much does sprinkler blowout/winterization cost?

Sprinkler blowout and winterization is just $65.00 for your entire system regardless of how many zones you have.

How often should I have my sprinklers blownout?

You only need to have your sprinkler system winterized once a year.  Make sure to winterize your system before the seasons first hard freeze.

What method do you use to blowout sprinklers?

We use a large truck mounted air compressor to blow each line out thoroughly. Please be sure to shut off the water from inside your home to the sprinkler system.

What should I do after you have blownout the sprinkler system?

Be sure to drain the line inside your home that leads from your water turn on/off out to your system.  This is easily done by simply opening the drain.

The on/off valve for your sprinkler water is typically located in the basement near the main water shut off valve to your house.

What should I do to prepare to get my service done?

  1. Leave any special instructions under your front door mat.
  2. Make sure a gate is unlocked and any mean dogs are put away.
  3. Make sure to shut off the water to your sprinkler system prior to our arrival.

What should I expect in the spring?

The cold winter months are very harsh on your sprinkler system.  The majority of all lines and valves in your sprinkler system is made of a thin plastic material that will crack and fail over time.

Having your system blownout ensures against frozen buried lines resulting in cracks in your system.  It is common however to have minor repairs such as backflow valves or an occasional sprinkler head after a long winter season.

What time of day will you be here to perform the service?

Because each job takes a different amount of time to complete, it is impossible to give an accurate estimated time of arrival.  Our technicians work sometimes until dark, so you can count on your service being performed on the day it is scheduled.
