Irrigation Maintenance and Repairs
Services Include:
Pond Cleaning
To keep your pond looking and functioning as it should, we recommend that your pond receive a full professional cleaning at least once per year. Neglecting your pond could result in increased maintenance over the long run or fish health issues if that is a concern. Typically, we recommend having your pond cleaned in the spring.
Basic maintenance includes checking your pond’s hardware, cleaning the debris basket and filter pad, checking and fixing any shifted rocks in your aquascape, checking your pond’s liner edges, and adding any necessary water treatments.
*Pond cleaning may be added to any maintenance package.

After a long winter, we recommend scheduling a start-up appointment to get your system functioning again to ensure its operation is at peak performance for the season.

Activate water and pressurize main line
Test backflow, if required
Check all zones and valves for leaks
Test for clogged spray nozzles
Check for damaged or non-rotating heads
Raise sunken heads/straighten crooked heads

As we enter the fall season and the cold weather nears, it is necessary to prepare your irrigation system or water feature for winter. This eliminates the chances of freezing and possible damage. Our technicians will perform the following procedures:
Shut all water off to irrigation
Drain and remove backflow if outdoors
Use a towable commercial grade air compressor to flush out lines
Open and flush any garden spigots
Shut down controller
Note any damage for spring repairs
