Identifying Common Sprinkler Issues

A faulty sprinkler system wastes water, increases bills, and damages your lawn. Common problems include clogged nozzles from debris, broken sprinkler heads from lawnmowers, and low water pressure due to leaks or valve issues. Pressure problems often stem from a compromised backflow preventer or a faulty zone valve. In areas like San Antonio, TX, hard water can accelerate mineral buildup.

“Ignoring a small leak can waste thousands of gallons monthly, violating local water restrictions,” notes Marcus Thorne, founder of Greenward National Lawn Care.

Our Irrigation Association-certified technicians start with a system audit to identify the root cause. We check for even coverage and proper timer settings. For complex valve or electrical issues, professional diagnosis is essential. Our crews in California and Texas understand regional water regulations. We ensure repairs comply with all local codes. Don’t let a minor issue become a major expense and environmental concern.
