Sprinkler System Tune-Up in Plano
Full system tune-up: $95 to $150
A tune-up is the cheapest money you will spend on your lawn this year. Most of the water a sprinkler system wastes comes from small things nobody notices: a nozzle clogged with grit that waters half its arc, a head tilted by the mower that sprays the fence, a controller still on the August schedule in October.
What a tune-up includes
- Run every zone and inspect every head for coverage, clogging, tilt and sunken position.
- Clean or replace clogged nozzles and filters (standard nozzles included).
- Adjust spray arcs and rotor radius so you water grass, not concrete.
- Raise sunken heads so they clear the turf.
- Check each valve box for leaks, debris and standing water.
- Inspect the backflow preventer for leaks and freeze damage, and check that the insulated cover is in place.
- Test the rain or freeze sensor.
- Program the controller for the season and for your city's watering days.
- Written report of anything that needs repair, with pricing.
Why it matters in Collin County
Heat, wind, hard water and the mower undo a system's adjustments over one summer. A system that is tuned in spring and adjusted again when the heat sets in uses meaningfully less water and keeps the lawn even. Homeowners who get a yearly tune-up almost never get the emergency call in July when a stuck valve has been flooding a flowerbed for a week.
Pricing
A full tune-up is $95 to $150 for a typical residential system of up to eight zones. Larger systems are quoted by zone count. If the tech finds something broken, you decide whether to fix it that day at the quoted price or schedule it later.
The best week to book is before the first hot stretch, not after the first brown patch. Call (972) 585-6256 and we will put Plano on the calendar while there is still room.
