Irrigation Controller Repair in Richmond, TX

Irrigation Controller Repair in Richmond, Texas

Storms wipe timers in Richmond. We test the panel, then set night watering with rest between cycles.

Pecan Grove was not a marketing name. Peheads and underground pipes are the old job. Aliana and Harvest Green are the new parkway job. Same Fort Bend day, two products.

We bring both spray and rotor on the visit.

A sprinkler timer that looks dead is often a blown fuse, a loose common, or a transformer that cooked on a west-facing garage wall. We test first. If the board is gone, we replace it with a panel that holds a program through a blink — battery backup or a Wi-Fi model if you want phone control.

Programming matters as much as hardware. St. Augustine in Katy clay does not want six-minute daily sprays. We set shorter watering cycles so clay can soak it in so runoff does not sheet down the driveway, and we point you at Harris County watering rules when they apply.

Smart controllers help when the rain sensor is honest and the zones are matched. They do not fix a broken head. We say that on the visit.

Why Richmond lawns fail this way

Richmond sits on Fort Bend clay that turns slick after rain. Valve boxes fill. 1980s underground pipe in older sections snaps. Newer master-planned walks follow the same four-foot parkway pattern as Katy. HOA letters about runoff are common.

Soil. Fort Bend clay; Pecan Grove lives up to the name

Grass. St. Augustine in Pecan Grove and Aliana, Bermuda on some Harvest Green pads

Houses. Pecan Grove 80s–90s, Aliana and Harvest Green 2010s Typical failures: Pecan Grove underground pipes vs Aliana parkway sprays, HOA run times, peheads shading zones

Richmond HOAs photograph grass and runoff. We match sod, keep water off the street, and write the quote so the committee sees a finished parkway.

How a visit works

1. Meter Incoming power, low-voltage output, common continuity.
2. Read the program Start times, run times, odd/even, seasonal adjust.
3. Repair or replace Board, transformer, or a new controller of the same class.
4. Program for Houston Night watering, shorter watering cycles so clay can soak it in, rain sensor enabled.
