Specimen-ish lawns, 70s–90s clocks, irrigation at the slab. Move the throw, then repair.
Sprinkler System Maintenance in Memorial is a local job: the grass, the clay, and the houses on those streets decide the repair. Memorial specimen lawns are not a six-head builder grid. Live oaks, limestone, irrigation that was piled against the slab. We match heads, keep water off the stone, and move throw off the beam. Nobody is tearing out that lawn for a cheap spray.
Energy Corridor lots are Memorial’s younger cousin — same clay, younger controllers. We do both in a west-Houston day. Nearby landmarks we actually use to find the lot: Memorial Park, Memorial City, Energy Corridor, Buffalo Bayou west.
Sprinkler System Maintenance in Memorial
A Houston sprinkler tune-up is a full wet check: every zone, every head, the rain sensor, the box, and the clock. We catch the mower-hit and the clogged nozzle before the St. Augustine writes a brown circle.
Spring and early fall are the right times. August is when people notice. We still come in August — we just tell you the grass will take a week to answer.
Maintenance is not a contract that mows. It is a listed wet check with repairs priced as we find them, or a not-to-exceed if you want that. No surprise manifold replacement hiding in a “tune-up.”
HOA front yards in Cinco Ranch and Bridgeland get the parkway heads raised before the mowing crew beheads them again.
Grass, soil, and housing on this side of town
Grass. St. Augustine, zoysia, estate lawns under live oaks St. Augustine wants a deep soak. Bermuda forgives a miss for a day. Mixing them on one valve is how one strip stays swampy and the other crunches.
Soil. Houston clay, estate irrigation Houston-area clay heaves shallow PVC and keeps valve boxes wet. We pack repairs so the next shrink-swell cycle does not walk the coupling off.

Questions we get on this pairing
Do you offer monthly irrigation service?
Tune-ups and on-call repair. We are not a mow crew.
Should I winterize in Houston?
Blowouts are for real winters. Here we insulate the backflow before a rare freeze and drain what the city tells us to.
How often?
At least twice a year. After a freeze warning, add a look at the brass.

- Night watering beats Gulf wind — Afternoon sea breeze blows mist onto the neighbor. 2–6 a.m. is when Houston turf actually drinks.
- St. Augustine thatch burying the can — If you cannot see the head, the mower will find it. Raise twice a year.
- Quail Valley is a generation ahead of Sienna — 1970s laterals. Sienna is still a head-and-clock story. Do not copy-paste the spec.
- Kingwood duff in the cans — Pine straw packs a pop-up until the stem will not rise. Raise, flush, and stop extending run times.
- Humble and Summerwood pressure is not Katy pressure — Meter first. Nozzles second. The last three heads are telling you the truth.
