Sprinkler Leak Detection in Carrollton, TX

Sprinkler Leak Detection in Carrollton, Texas

Quiet leaks in Carrollton clay look like rain. We start at the water meter, then open only the wet spot.

Carrollton HOAs punish a one-program timer across shade and open lawn.

Leak detection starts at the meter and the backflow. If the meter moves with every valve off, the leak is on the main or the house side. If it only moves when a zone is live, we walk that lateral.

We look for summer tells: mushrooms in a ring, ants abandoning a wet spot, a sidewalk that never dries, a hiss at a valve. Acoustic listening helps on long mains under commercial turf. A shovel still closes the file.

High bills in an Addison August are often a stuck valve watering from 2 a.m. until noon. That is a leak in effect. We treat it as one.

Why Carrollton lawns fail this way

Carrollton is Mid-Cities watering: clay that breaks pipe, St. Augustine and Bermuda that want a soak, North Texas storms that wipe timers, and mowers that take every proud pop-up.

Soil. clay with sandy fill pockets

Grass. Bermuda and St. Augustine

Houses. 1980s–2000s HOA Typical failures: sun/shade on one timer, parkway heads

We restore the parkway or yard when the trench is closed. If Carrollton has city sidewalk rules or an HOA standard, we follow it. Utility lines get marked before every cut.

How a visit works

1. Meter test All irrigation off. Watch the sweep.
2. Zone isolation Open one station at a time.
3. Walk the wet Probe, listen, mark.
4. Open only the mark Repair, test, restore.
