Sprinkler Leak Detection in Cross Creek Ranch, TX

Sprinkler Leak Detection in Cross Creek Ranch, Texas

Quiet leaks in Cross Creek Ranch clay look like rain. We start at the water meter, then open only the wet spot.

Cross Creek Ranch fails at the parkway head and the builder clock. The lawn next door is the control group.

Same Fulshear day. Bring the HOA letter if the complaint is runoff.

We start at the meter and the backflow. If the meter moves with the irrigation shut off, the leak is on the main or it is a house plumbing problem and we say so. If it only moves when a station is open, we walk that lateral.

August bills in Cross Creek are often a valve that never closed and watered from 2 a.m. until noon. That is a leak in effect. We treat it as one, then rebuild the valve.

Why Cross Creek Ranch lawns fail this way

New clay, new sod, and a clock that still runs a short morning mist. That combination browns the last heads and wets the curb.

Soil. Black gumbo under new St. Augustine parkways

Grass. HOA St. Augustine, mowed short every week

Houses. Master-planned sections with four-foot parkways and builder irrigation Typical failures: Saturday mowers, buried heads, clocks still on a builder schedule, runoff letters

We restore the parkway so the section looks finished when we leave.

How a visit works

1. Walk the yard We run every zone in Fulshear. A dry strip, a mist, and a head that never comes up are three different repairs.
2. Find the fault Heads, valves, underground pipe, and the low-voltage wire. Fort Bend gumbo heaves shallow fittings and sheds a long spray into the curb.
3. Repair We replace the part that failed. Spray heads stay with spray heads. Rotors stay with rotors.
4. Set the timer Night watering, rest between cycles, rain sensor on. Noon misting is not a program.
