Rain Sensor Repair in Waller
Hockley rain still falls on barns. Sensors mounted under a metal eave never see it, so the well runs through a storm.
We put the sensor where sky hits it, on a post or a gutter that actually gets wet. Then we confirm the pump start is interrupted too, not just the valves.
A sensor that keeps the system off for a week is stuck wet or wired as the wrong loop. We test it. We do not bypass it and call that a repair.
Grass, soil, and housing on this side of town
Grass. Bermuda and St. Augustine 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 and blackland pockets, wells common 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. Waller in-town and acreage toward Hockley Typical irrigation failures here: wells, older valves, long runs

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.
