This is why you need to call Georgia Sprinklers when you think that you may have a sprinker leak and need repairs. Standing water can do a lot of damage to your landscape, so don’t wait until it’s too late.
Irrigation leaks most commonly occur because the valves fail to completely close, or you have broken heads. While that is not technically a leak it is wasting water and you will begin to see the effects of an over saturated lawn. In addition to these two common problems, it’s not completely unheard of that you actually have a leak in your pipes.
Here are some signs that you need to call Georgia Sprinklers for Atlanta Irrigation Leak Detection:
- Certain areas of your lawn are growing faster, overgrown or are greener than the rest of the turf
- Soggy areas left when the sprinklers are not operating
- You notice a spike in your water bill
