Sprinkler Leak Detection in Pine Island
Hockley leaks hide in pasture. The well runs more than it should, or a green ring shows up in August where nothing else is green.
On a well, there is no city meter to watch unless you have a flow meter on the pump. We use the pressure tank: if the pump starts with every valve closed, water is leaving the system.
Then we walk. A tight dig beats a trench across an acre. If the leak is on the house side of the irrigation shutoff, that is a plumber and we stop.
Grass, soil, and housing on this side of town
Grass. Bermuda pasture and yard St. Augustine wants a deep soak. Bermuda forgives a miss for a day. Mixing them on one valve is how one strip stays swampy and the other crunches.
Soil. Sandy clay, rural wells Hockley sand and iron pack screens, and long laterals lose pressure at the far rotor. We flush and measure before we sell a bigger pump.
Housing. Pine Island rural lots Typical irrigation failures here: wells, distance between heads, shop timers
Zones off, watch the sweep. A creep is a leak. Walk it before you trench.
How a visit works
- Walk the yard We run every zone in Hockley. A dry strip, a mist, and a head that never comes up are three different repairs.
- Find the fault Heads, valves, underground pipe, and the low-voltage wire. Hockley wells push sand and iron through long laterals. The last rotor is the test.
- Repair We replace the part that failed. Spray heads stay with spray heads. Rotors stay with rotors.
- Set the timer Night watering, rest between cycles, rain sensor on. Noon misting is not a program.

- The last rotor on a Hockley well — City nozzles on a well mist at the fence. Measure the pump, then change the nozzle.
- Waller pop-ups the mower shaves — A head above the grass loses its cap. We set it down and match the nozzle to the rest of the zone.
- The last head on a Hempstead pasture — If the near rotors are strong and the far one mists, the nozzle or the pump is the story.
- Iron in every Hockley screen — Flush the head before you buy a pump. Sand and iron fake a pressure problem.
- A Waller lateral under a gravel drive — The wet gravel is the clue. We open a tight spot, not the whole drive.
