Sprinkler repair and drip irrigation for your Los Angeles lot
If a sprinkler is soaking the sidewalk or a corner of your Los Angeles lawn has gone brown, we repair it, and we put in a new sprinkler or drip irrigation system where you need one. Call (310) 857-2520.
Book online and we'll call you back the same business day.
Run your sprinklers once while it's light out, and walk the lot while they're on. Sprinklers that come on before sunrise can stay broken for a long time before anybody sees it.
We repair sprinklers too, including on yards we didn't build. Tell us what you saw on your walk and where, and we take it from there.
What you might find, starting at the curb
- Water running along the gutter. If the sidewalk and the street are wet a few minutes in, a sprinkler head by the parkway is probably pointing the wrong way, leaning over or set to throw too far.
- A fountain in the front lawn. If one head shoots straight up, its top has broken off. If one never rises out of the grass, it is stuck or clogged.
- Wet ground with everything switched off. A valve is the tap in the ground that the timer opens for one group of sprinklers. If the soil around yours stays wet, it is not closing, and it needs a repair or a new valve.
- A part of the backyard that stays dry. If one group of sprinklers never comes on while the others run, the fault is usually in its valve, the timer or the wire that joins them.
- Plants drooping at the far end of a bed. If your beds are on drip, the tubing may be cut or blocked somewhere before those plants.
If you only ever see the result, a brown patch or a soggy one, that is enough to call about.
If your lawn is turning into planting
Sprinklers made for grass throw water wide. Plants in a bed do better on drip irrigation, which is narrow tubing laid through the bed with a small opening by each plant.
If we are taking up your lawn for front yard and parkway planting, you do not have to ask for this. Drip or sprinkler changes come with any build that needs them.
If you have kept the plants you have and only want the watering changed over, we do that as well.
One crew lead runs your whole job.
Whoever walks the lot with you at the free visit runs the build and the final walkthrough, and you get their direct number that day. A question about the slope or the side gate goes to the person who measured it.

If part of your lot has no sprinklers at all
- The front lawn. If you want a sprinkler system installation for grass, the heads need spacing so the spray from one reaches the next. That way the lawn gets wet from edge to edge, and the walk and the house wall stay dry.
- The parkway. That strip by the curb is narrow, so spray tends to land on the pavement. If yours is planted, we would put it on drip.
- The beds along the fence and the side yard. These get drip too, which keeps the fence and the house wall dry.
- A slope. If you have a planted bank, tell us. We water bank planting with drip, as on our retaining walls and terraces jobs.
If your lot has both grass and beds, they do not want the same amount of water. Tell us which parts you want kept green and which are planted, and we split the system that way.
What the price of a new system depends on
- How much of the lot it waters. Watering one front lawn takes less than watering the whole lot from the curb to the back fence.
- Spray, drip or some of each. We work that out from what grows where.
- What the pipe has to cross. If a driveway or a patio lies between the house and a bed, there is more to do.
- What is already in the ground. If you have old pipe and valves, tell us what you know about them.
To price a new system, we come and measure. Your free yard visit is booked within 3 business days. The system has its own price on the one quote, which comes by email within 1 business day of the visit.
If we built your yard
After handover we can stay on to prune, weed, top up the mulch and check the drip each season. It is for yards we built, and we don't run a weekly mow-and-blow route.
Call (310) 857-2520 after you have walked the lot with the water running, and tell us what you found.
We fix sprinklers and put in new sprinklers and drip in Glendale, Santa Clarita, Beverly Hills and Long Beach.

It's free, and you'll hear what we'd do in every part of it.
