Irrigation System Rebuild in Galveston, Texas
When Galveston underground pipe crumbles in the hand, we replace it by zone and leave a simple map on the timer.
Galveston sand will not stand a Katy trench. Island irrigation is corrosion, a high water table, and heads that salt air eats. We shore the cut, spec parts that take Gulf sun, and we do not copy a prairie method onto the East End.
Dedicated day. Tell us if the lot is raised and where the backflow lives.
Rebuild talk starts after we open a trench and the pipe crumbles, or after the third leak in a month on the same run. First Colony, Clear Lake NASA-era lots, and 1990s Katy systems hit this window.
We keep a working backflow if it passes. We replace heads with one family so nozzles match. We label the controller. You should not need us to find zone 4 next summer.
A rebuild is not always the whole yard. Sometimes the backyard underground pipes are fine and the parkway is junk. We price sections.
Why Galveston lawns fail this way
Galveston sits in Gulf air. Soil stays wet longer than a west-side prairie lot. Timers rust. Valve boxes never dry. Leaks rarely shoot in the air because the ground is already wet. We use parts that take salt and sun, and we watch the water meter before we dig.
Soil. sand and fill; salt, wind, and a water table that sits high
Grass. Salt-tolerant St. Augustine and mixes, thin island turf
Houses. raised cottages, historic East End, West End beach houses Typical failures: sand will not hold a Katy trench, corrosion, city water pressure, raised cottages
Island work needs extra care. Sand will not hold a Katy-style trench without a wider cut. We do not copy a prairie method onto the East End.
How a visit works
- Audit Pipe condition, pressure, coverage gaps.
- Scope in writing What stays, what goes.
- Rebuild by zone So the lawn is not all brown at once.
- As-built A map in the controller door.
