Why should you have your irrigation system serviced with By the Blade?

If your property has an irrigation system, investing in residential irrigation maintenance services can help you detect problems early, prevent significant water damage, and keep your landscape looking great.

The summer is only starting. Several more months of blazing hot sun rays are coming our way. If your sprinkler system has not yet been maintained or tuned-up, the time to do so is now.

Have your irrigation system maintained and the system will function at its best in the months to come. This is the peace of mind every homeowner deserves, especially during the hot months that have the potential to create ugly brown dry patches on your grass.

By the Blade’s certified irrigation technicians will take a close look at your irrigation system when we provide start-up and shut-down services.

At that time, we will make sure to take a look at the controller to ensure it is firmly plugged in and functional. We will correct the date and time. We will ensure the wires and sensors are properly connected. We will make sure to schedule for the needs of the current season and the condition of your landscape. Finally, we will turn on each individual zone to check for system damage.

Do not assume your irrigation system’s sprinkler heads are in perfect shape and will function to perfection. As time progresses, the odds of sprinkler heads breaking or sinking dramatically increases. These heads endure damage from lawnmowers, shifting of the soil, improper installation, and regular wear and tear.

Properly maintaining an irrigation system involves replacing those damaged or missing heads prior to watering. It is prudent to install sprinkler heads on a swing pipe so they can “float” within the soil and prove less susceptible to damage. When we start up your system, we will adjust and repair heads that aren’t working properly to ensure a healthy lawn.
