When one zone stops, start here.
An irrigation professional can work through the controller output, connections, and valve operation. Electrical testing and valve repairs should be handled by a qualified professional.
Common reasons to ask for help
- A zone that will not start
- Sprinklers that keep running
- Intermittent watering cycles
Understand the scope before approving work
One failed valve does not necessarily call for a full system replacement. Ask for the diagnosed fault, compatible replacement parts, and a test of the affected zone after work is complete.
What to include in your inquiry
Is one zone affected or the whole system? Do you see an error on the controller? Has any landscape work taken place near the valve boxes?
