Common Sprinkler Problems We Fix
At Idaho Sprinkler Repair, we diagnose and fix all types of sprinkler system issues. Our experienced technicians have seen it all and have the expertise to get your system working properly again.
Broken Sprinkler Heads
Damaged or broken sprinkler heads are one of the most common issues we see. Whether they’ve been hit by a lawnmower, cracked from age, or simply stopped working, we can replace them quickly with quality parts that match your system.
Leaking Valves & Pipes
Underground leaks can waste thousands of gallons of water and damage your lawn. We use specialized equipment to locate leaks and repair them with minimal disruption to your landscaping.
Low Water Pressure Issues
If your sprinklers aren’t reaching as far as they used to, you may have a pressure problem. This could be caused by a leak, a clogged filter, or issues with your water supply. We’ll diagnose the cause and fix it.
Controller & Timer Problems
Modern sprinkler controllers can be complex. Whether your timer isn’t programming correctly, zones aren’t turning on, or you need help setting up a watering schedule, we can help.
Zone Coverage Issues
Dry spots in your lawn often indicate coverage problems. We can adjust head positions, replace nozzles, or add additional heads to ensure even coverage across your entire yard.
