Knowing how to take care of your lawn and sprinkler system can be challenging, especially if lawn care isn’t your field of expertise. While “irrigation repairs” may sound daunting and quite serious, checking on the health of your sprinkler system can be relatively simple.
Watch Your Water Bill
The first way you can know if anything is wrong with your sprinkler system or the water in any other area of your property is by keeping a close eye on your water bill. If you have a leak or your sprinkler system isn’t working as efficiently as before due to some kind of damage, that increased use of water will show up in your water bill. So, if the price of keeping your lawn lush and green is skyrocketing, it’s likely time for irrigation repair services.
Assess Your Lawn
The second way you can find out if irrigation repairs are needed is by watching your lawn itself. If you have an automated sprinkler system, it’s likely because you want to enjoy the fresh green of your front lawn or a beautiful garden. If your grass, plants, and flowers aren’t looking well, it could be irrigation repairs are needed to help them get the water they need. Dry areas and yellow patches of grass shouldn’t exist in a well-watered lawn, so if you see them, you’ll know that it’s time for irrigation repairs.
