Spring Irrigation Start-Up & System Inspection

Start the Season with Confidence

Before your irrigation system begins watering for the season, it's important to ensure everything is operating properly after the winter months.


Our Spring Irrigation Start-Up service safely repressurizes your system, thoroughly inspects each zone, and helps identify any issues before they become larger, more costly repairs.


Serving homeowners throughout Anne Arundel County and the surrounding areas, our experienced irrigation technicians help ensure your system is ready for another successful watering season.


What's Included in Our Spring Start-Up?


During your Spring Start-Up, our technician will:


·        Safely repressurize your irrigation system

·        Inspect every irrigation zone

·        Test each valve for proper operation

·        Verify controllers and timers are functioning correctly

·        Inspect sprinkler heads for proper operation and coverage

·        Adjust spray patterns as needed

·        Check that heads fully retract after watering

·        Clean or replace clogged nozzles or filters when possible

·        Inspect visible piping, valves, and the backflow device for leaks

·        Verify proper system pressure and operation


Our goal is to identify small issues early, helping prevent wasted water and keeping your lawn and landscape healthy throughout the season.


If Repairs Are Needed

If we discover any issues during your Spring Start-Up, we'll explain our findings and discuss the recommended repairs with you.


Many minor repairs can often be completed during the service visit if parts are available on the technician's truck. If more extensive repairs are needed, we'll provide a formal proposal before completing any additional work.


Annual Backflow Testing

Many counties require annual backflow testing for irrigation systems. While we inspect the backflow device for visible leaks during your Spring Start-Up, the certified backflow test itself must be performed by a licensed plumber or certified backflow tester.


If your backflow device fails the required test, we're happy to work with you on any irrigation-related repairs that may be needed.


Protect Your Irrigation Investment

A professional Spring Start-Up helps ensure your irrigation system is operating efficiently before the heat of summer arrives. Identifying leaks, damaged sprinkler heads, clogged nozzles, or controller issues early can save water, prevent damage to your landscape, and reduce the likelihood of unexpected repairs later in the season.
