What started as a simple service call turned into a deep dive into a heavily damaged irrigation system on a rural Fairhope property.
When we arrived, there was no controller, multiple zones were stuck running, and years of previous repairs had left the system in rough shape. After manually locating 9 valves, tracing wiring, diagnosing failed components, and uncovering several shortcuts taken by previous contractors, we were able to identify the real issues instead of recommending a complete replacement.
Many companies would have looked at this system and told the homeowner they needed a brand new irrigation system at a cost of $9,000 to $10,000.
Instead, we developed a restoration plan that will bring the system back to proper working order for less than half the cost of replacement. The project includes new control wiring, a smart controller installation, valve and solenoid repairs, sprinkler head and rotor replacements, and adding automated control to the pond fill line.
Our goal is always to find the most practical and cost-effective solution for our customers. Sometimes that means replacing a system. Other times, it means taking the time to diagnose the problem correctly and saving a homeowner thousands of dollars.
This is exactly why experience matters.
