Irrigation Repair & Installation in East Tennessee

Half your zones don't work? We can hear that.

Most irrigation systems in the foothills were installed by the cheapest bidder, then ignored. Heads buried, controllers full of spiderwebs, valves that won't close. We service what we install, and what we didn't. Repair, redesign, install, open up in spring, blow out in fall.

The problem

Irrigation only saves you money when it actually works.

A neglected sprinkler system is worse than no system at all. You're paying for water that never reaches the grass. Heads spray the driveway, valves leak underground for months, controllers run zone 4 for an hour every night when it's already raining.

The biggest reason irrigation fails in this region: most systems were installed for flat sod-farm conditions, not the rolling clay-and-rock yards we actually live on. Heads end up too far apart, zones cross slope lines, pressure drops at the back of the property. The system "works" for one summer, then quietly degrades.

If any of these are happening, it's time to bring us out:

  • Brown patches the sprinkler "should" be hitting
  • Geysers, swampy spots, or heads stuck up
  • Water bill jumped and you don't know why
  • Controller display is blank or stuck on one zone
  • System never blown out for winter (cracked pipe risk)
  • Pump or backflow making noises it didn't last year

02 · What we do

Repair, install, maintain.
Brand-agnostic.

We work on whatever's already in your yard — we're brand-agnostic and we'll repair what's there before recommending a swap.

New install & redesign

Full system design and install for new lawns, landscape installs, and tear-outs that didn't work. Real head-to-head coverage, zoned by sun and slope, smart controller standard.

Repair & troubleshoot

Broken heads, leaking valves, wire breaks, clogged nozzles, low pressure. We bring a wire tracker, a pressure gauge, and patience. Most repairs done in a single visit.

Smart controller upgrades

Swap your dumb 1990s timer for a Wi-Fi controller that watches the weather, skips zones during rain, and emails you when something breaks. Often pays for itself over a few seasons of saved water and avoided repairs.

Spring start-up

Open the system, charge the line, run every zone, replace what's broken before the season starts. Catch the leaks before they cost you a $400 water bill.

Fall winterization

Compressor blow-out, every zone, every line. The single most important visit you can book; one cracked PVC line costs more than ten years of winterizations.

Drip & bed retrofits

Convert overhead spray in beds to drip. Less water, less foliar disease, healthier plants. A weekend's worth of work for most beds.

03 · How it works

Four steps, start to finish.

The same way every job runs, whether it's a quick fix or a full build. No surprises between the steps.

01

Quote & Bid

We come look at the actual job and give you a real number.

02

Design & Scope

We confirm exactly what we're doing before anyone picks up a shovel.

03

The Work

We get it done, the way we said we would.

04

Quality Control

We don't leave until you're happy with it. Questions later? We're a call away.

04 · Pricing

Service call?
Flat fee.
Install?
Quote on site.

For repair and seasonal service, we quote a fair flat rate up front, no hourly meter running. New installs and full redesigns vary too much by lot size and zoning to price online, so we come walk it.

What we won't do: charge a "diagnostic fee" and then add labor on top. The visit fee covers the diagnosis. If you book the repair in the same visit, that's the price.

What affects an install quote

  • Number of zones
  • Square footage of coverage
  • Water source & pressure
  • Slope & head-to-head spacing
  • Smart controller / Wi-Fi
  • Drip in beds vs. spray in turf

FAQ

Common questions.

Do you repair irrigation systems you did not install?
Yes — we are brand-agnostic and service whatever is already in your yard. We repair what is there before recommending a replacement.
Why is winterizing my sprinkler system important?
A compressor blow-out clears water from every line before a freeze. One cracked PVC line costs far more than ten years of winterizations.
How much does a new irrigation system cost?
New installs depend on zones, water source, and yard size. Repairs and winterization are flat-rate after a quick look. We quote after assessing the property.
Can a smart controller lower my water bill?
Often, yes. A Wi-Fi controller watches the weather and skips zones during rain, which usually pays for itself over a few seasons of saved water.
