Winter in Idaho Falls always seems to come earlier than folks expect. And once the snow starts flying, it can be difficult to keep up with all of the work that comes with it. Sidewalks and driveways will need to be shoveled and de-iced. This becomes especially important if you are a business property owner or renter. You will have business traffic coming and going, so it is important that your business has clear driveways, parking lots, and walkways to keep customers and employees safe and welcome.

When To Call YardTech For Sprinkler Repair

Idaho Falls Sprinkler repair Services

Sprinkler systems are a wonderful thing for home and business owners! They can be programmed to water for exactly how long your yard should be watered, how much it needs to be watered and where the water should be directed. This system saves time, water, and money for people.  Homeowners can even leave for periods of time for vacations, weekends, etc. and still come home to a green lawn without having to find someone to water their lawn during their absence. No hoses, no sprinkler heads to deal with. Yes, sprinkler systems are a fantastic investment. However, they do also need routine maintenance and occasionally sprinkler repair.  

How To Know If Your Sprinkler System Needs Repair

  • Uneven Or Low Pressure – if you notice that the pressure of the water coming out of the sprinkler heads are lower than normal, stronger than normal, or uneven among all of the heads, there may be an issue within the control valves, the regulator, or the irrigation piping. Low pressure can result in uneven watering and wilting of grass, and too much pressure can wear down your system, so it’s a good idea to have this pressure issue resolved.
  • Leaking Control Valves – The control valves deliver the correct amount of water to each head and area of your yard. If these valves are leaking, or seeping water, it’s a sign that you may need sprinkler repair. Leaky valves cause wasting of water resources and can lead to damp spots in your yard which can bring other problems.
  • Sprinkler Heads That Spit Out Water – if any of the sprinkler heads are spitting or sputtering out water or spraying out of the normal way, this is a sign of a valve issue, or there could be cracks or damage to the sprinkler head. This is cause for maintenance or sprinkler system repair.
  • Unusually High Water Bill – A higher than normal monthly water bill is a pretty good indicator that there is a leak in the irrigation system or somewhere else in your sprinkler system that needs repaired.  
  • Uneven Water Spray From Heads – If areas of your yard aren’t getting enough water, or too much water, or the heads are spraying the driveway and sidewalks, there is an issue with the heads of the sprinkler system or a valve that may need repaired.

If you have any of these concerns with your sprinkler system, it is a good idea to have it looked at by a professional. A YardTech technician will come to your home or business and check out the sprinkler system to determine if anything in the system needs to be adjusted or repaired. The YardTech team is trained to repair and maintain your sprinkler system to keep it running efficiently and reliably. You can reach YardTech easily through our contact page here on our website. We will come to your home or business and inspect the system to identify any issues and then consult with you to have your sprinkler system repaired quickly and professionally. Contact us today!

It’s Time To Winterize Your Sprinkler System!

East Idaho Sprinkler Winterization

Idaho Falls Sprinkler Winterization and Winterize Lawn Treatment – Now Scheduling Service

Temperatures are beginning to drop and Fall is in the air. It’s time to start thinking about getting the right treatment to winterize your lawn. September is notorious for the return of the dandelion. Although we’re not seeing a ton of the yellow blossoms, the leaves are popping up everywhere. Getting an application of herbicide on the lawn now helps to get a head start on weed control in the spring. However, we don’t just use products that control dandelion and clover, we use heavy-duty 4-way herbicides that are effective on the hard to kill weed pests such as morning glory, bindweed, and even the dreaded Canadian thistle.

Idaho Falls yard fertilizer to winterize a lawnAlong with effective herbicides, we also apply a fall iron treatment that helps your lawn store nutrients over the winter. A lawn needs more than just nitrogen to be healthy. Micronutrients are essential for healthy grassroots. Some of these include potassium, phosphorus, sulfur, magnesium, and calcium. This treatment is great to do right after fall aeration to help get these nutrients deeper into the soil.

Fall is also a perfect time to fertilize trees. Trees also store nutrients over the winter. When fertilizers are injected into the trunks or roots of trees they sit dormant in the vascular tissue and roots. As soon as the tree begins uptaking water in the spring, the fertilizers are distributed throughout the entire tree, giving them a boost just when they need it. The benefit of fall tree fertilization is that the tree is more likely to store the nutrients in the roots, with the remainder being reserved for the other tissues of the tree when it resumes growth and expansion in the spring. Healthy roots equal healthy trees.

Finally, it’s time to start thinking about sprinkler winterization. We generally start around the 10th of October and run through the middle of November. Why winterize? Because the small fee we charge for this service is much less of a cost than sprinkler repairs in the spring. We use compressed air to empty every zone in the system as well as main lines, backflow valves, and garden faucets. Backflow valves need special care to prevent damage from ice. Ball valves must be turned a certain way to keep water out of the ball ports even after the water has been blown out of the system. People do this incorrectly all the time. Ball valves crack in the spring even though a winterization has been done. Don’t let this be you! Call us to blow out your system and drain things properly!

Call Rock at 208-357-9129 to schedule any of these services. Schedule two or more services and receive 10% off the entire bill! (Includes Pest Control) Hurry because slots are filling up!
