Irrigation System Rebuild in Houston, TX

Irrigation System Rebuild in Houston, Texas

When Houston underground pipe crumbles in the hand, we replace it by zone and leave a simple map on the timer.

Inside the Loop, lawns are small and the irrigation is older than the last kitchen remodel. Heights bungalows, Montrose cottages, and River Oaks estates all run pop-ups through Houston clay. Heads sit too low in St. Augustine. Underground pipes snap when the soil shrinks. We repair the zone that actually failed and leave a program that waters at night, not at noon.

77007 and 77008 still have original underground pipes next to oaks. Memorial and River Oaks want matched heads and a quiet dusk cycle. Meyerland rebuilds got new sod and a builder system that never covered the side yard.

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 Houston lawns fail this way

Houston yards are often small and the sprinklers are older than the last kitchen. Parkways can be two feet wide. Original pipe still serves bungalows. New houses get new systems next to neighbors on 1980s pipe. City parkway restoration is inspected.

Soil. Houston Black clay and Beaumont clay that shrinks in drought and swells after Gulf storms

Grass. St. Augustine inside the Loop, Bermuda on some rebuilds, zoysia on a few River Oaks lawns

Houses. 1920s bungalows inside the Loop, 1950s brick ranches, and post-Harvey rebuilt slabs Typical failures: mower-clipped pop-ups, clay-heaved PVC, dry side yards, controllers fried by storms

Parkway work in Houston is watched. We restore soil and sod (or match what the city expects) and we do not leave a rut in the strip. If a permit applies, it is part of the quote.

How a visit works

1. Audit Pipe condition, pressure, coverage gaps.
2. Scope in writing What stays, what goes.
3. Rebuild by zone So the lawn is not all brown at once.
4. As-built A map in the controller door.
