Sprinklers watering a field in the Adelaide Hills

Irrigation Maintenance & Repairs

Leaks, dry zones, controllers that will not start and sprinklers that will not stop. We find the cause, fix it properly and keep your system running season after season.

Repairs done properly

Finding the real cause, not just the symptom

A wet patch, a dry patch or a zone that will not turn off are symptoms. The cause might be a cracked fitting, a stuck solenoid, a damaged cable, a blocked filter or a pressure problem further up the line. We trace faults back to the source so the same problem does not come back.

We repair systems of all ages and brands, from home gardens in Littlehampton to orchard and vineyard systems around Balhannah, and we aim to complete repairs on the first visit wherever parts allow.

Regular maintenance is the cheapest insurance for an irrigation system. A spring start-up and an autumn check catch small problems before a hot spell turns them into a dead lawn, stressed trees or a big water bill. If you are not sure what condition your system is in, start with an irrigation system assessment.

Maintenance

Servicing that suits your property

From a home garden to a working farm, we set up a maintenance routine around how hard the system works.

Spring start-up

Flush the lines, clean filters, check every zone, replace damaged heads and set the controller up for the warmer months.

Summer checks

Coverage and scheduling checks heading into the hottest weeks, when a failed zone does the most damage.

Autumn wind-down

Dial schedules back, flush the system and fix anything that showed up over summer so it is ready for next season.

Urgent repairs

Burst mainlines, zones that will not shut off and pump failures. Call us and we will get to you as soon as we can.

Rural and agricultural servicing

Pump checks, filter maintenance, drip line flushing and leak repairs on larger systems where downtime costs crops.

Pump and filter servicing

Cleaning and checking filters, pressure tanks and pump controls so the whole system runs at the right pressure.

FAQs

Common questions

Why is one part of my garden dry when the rest is fine?

Usually a blocked or damaged emitter, a valve that is not opening fully, a leak on that zone, or a zone with more heads than the supply can run. We test the zone and pin down which it is.

A zone will not turn off. What should I do?

Turn off the water to the irrigation at the isolation valve or tap that feeds it. A zone that will not shut off is almost always a valve issue, often debris in the diaphragm or a failed solenoid, and is usually a straightforward repair.

Do you repair systems you did not install?

Yes. We work on systems of any age and brand. If an older system is costing more in repairs than it is worth, we will tell you honestly and give you options.

How often should my irrigation be serviced?

At a minimum, a check at the start of spring and again in autumn. Larger rural systems and systems running on bore or dam water benefit from more regular filter and line maintenance.
