Sprinkler Leak Detection in Tomball, Texas
Quiet leaks in Tomball clay look like rain. We start at the water meter, then open only the wet spot.
We cover the Tomball acreage that sits toward Hockley and Rose Hill. East Tomball is not this page.
West of SH 249. Say Rose Hill or the crossroad.
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.
Why Tomball lawns fail this way
Same well math as Hockley. Test the pump, then the nozzle, then the clock.
Soil. Sandy loam over clay, wells west of 249
Grass. St. Augustine and acreage Bermuda
Houses. West Tomball acreage toward Rose Hill, not the whole 249 corridor Typical failures: wells, long laterals, barn controllers
Long wire runs get metered at both ends before anyone replaces a timer.
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.
