Sprinkler Head Repair in Tomball
Hockley head repair is grit, low pressure, and rotors asked to throw farther than the well can push.
Well water along 290 carries sand and iron. It packs screens until a good head looks like a pressure problem. We pull the head, flush the lateral until it runs clear, and then decide if the nozzle is wrong.
Acreage rotors need nozzles sized to the pump, not to a subdivision chart. We say which one you have after the gauge, not before.
Grass, soil, and housing on this side of town
Grass. St. Augustine and acreage Bermuda 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 loam over clay, wells west of 249 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. West Tomball acreage toward Rose Hill, not the whole 249 corridor Typical irrigation failures here: wells, long laterals, barn controllers

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.
