Sprinkler Maintenance Frequently Asked Questions

If you need more information regarding sprinkler maintenance, we compile these frequently asked questions to help you.

  • What if you find something broken?

    We’ll flag it and schedule repairs with your approval. See Irrigation Repairs

  • Can you program smart controllers and rain sensors?

    Yes — we optimise run times and connect compatible smart features.

  • Do you offer maintenance plans?

    Yes — annual or semiโ€‘annual plans with reminders and priority booking.

  • Why is regular irrigation system maintenance necessary?

    Regular maintenance is essential to ensure that your system operates efficiently, prevents costly irrigation repairs, and conserves water. 


    It also extends the lifespan of your system and keeps your landscape healthy.

  • How often should I schedule irrigation system maintenance?

    It's recommended to have a professional inspection and maintenance at least once a year, typically before the start of the growing season. 

    However, some systems may benefit from seasonal or semi-annual check-ups, depending on usage and local climate.

  • What does irrigation system maintenance include?

    Maintenance typically includes inspections for leaks, proper water distribution, and any damaged components.


     It may involve adjusting sprinkler heads, cleaning filters, and optimizing controller settings to align with the changing needs of your landscape..

  • Can I perform irrigation system maintenance myself?

    While some basic tasks like cleaning filters can be done by homeowners, a professional is recommended for comprehensive maintenance.

     Irrigation experts have the training and tools to identify and address issues that might not be apparent to the untrained eye.

  • Why doesn't my water sprinkler system working correctly?

    Clogged sprinkler heads: You may have a clogged sprinkler head if the head doesn't rise and there is no water. Dirt, sand and other debris build up in the sprinkler head filters. To clean a filter: Turn off your water, lift the pop up riser, remove the nozzle and the filter, clean the filter and return to the nozzle.

  • What's the best way to pull rocks out of sprinkler lines?

    Remove the sprinkler nozzle and inspect the filter to determine whether it is dirty. Any dirt will be removed by running the filter under cold water. Dirt and other debris can be removed by flushing a sprinkler line. Clean pipes and consistent water pressure are required for automatic sprinkler systems to function properly.

  • Why are my sprinklers not working?

    It's usually a problem with the electrical signals traveling from the controller to the valve solenoids when the sprinkler zones don't come on at all. A malfunctioning valve, which needs to be repaired or replaced, is the most common cause.

  • How can irrigation system maintenance save water and money?

    Regular maintenance ensures that your system operates at peak efficiency, preventing water wastage from leaks, overwatering, or underperformance. 


    This not only conserves water but also reduces water bills, saving you money in the long run.

  • What are the signs that my irrigation system needs maintenance?

    Some common signs that your irrigation system may require maintenance include uneven watering, dry or waterlogged spots in your landscape, high water bills, or visible leaks.

     If you notice any of these issues, it's a good indicator that it's time for professional maintenance to ensure your system functions optimally.


  • How Often My Lawn Needs to be sprinkled?

    The irrigation frequency and amount of water depend on the weather and plant needs. For example, in summer, you need to irrigate your lawn and garden more frequently than in the rainy season. Similarly, some plants need more water to grow than others.


    If you do not water your plants adequately, they may wilt and die. On the other hand, overwatering can hinder root growth and promote weeds and pests. Therefore, you should be careful while irrigation your lawn plant. While irrigating, keep the season, plants requirement, and your local ordinances and water restrictions guidelines.

  • How deep should place lawn sprinkler pipes?

    According to the North Carolina irrigation code, irrigation pipes should be placed at a depth of 12-15 inches. Installing irrigation pipes at this depth ensures that pipes do not freeze or get damaged by lawn maintenance equipment. 


    If there is a greater potential for frozen pipes in your area, you may place irrigation pipes even deeper than this range. If you suspect underground leaks, call Green Garden Landscaping for a professional inspection and repair estimate.

  • How often my sprinkler system need maintenance?

    Depending on the quality, weather, and age of your irrigation system, the irrigation system maintenance frequency varies. If you have a high-quality irrigation system installed, it will work fine even if you do maintenance after longer intervals. However, cheaper irrigation systems need regular maintenance to ensure proper functioning. Similarly, the older irrigation systems require frequent maintenance. Call Green Garden Landscaping to get the customized estimation for your irrigation system maintenance and repair. 

  • Will maintenance reduce my water bill?

    Often — better coverage and accurate scheduling cut waste.,

  • When should I winterize?

    Book in late fall, before the first hard freeze.
