Lawn Sprinklers: Cost of Spring Activation

By ProMatcher Staff

What does a spring start-up include?

During this tune-up, the lawn sprinkler company will activate your sprinkler system and ensure that all components are working properly. Sprinkler companies typically charge a flat fee for this service, plus the cost of any additional materials like new valves or replacement sprinkler heads.

The sprinkler company will:

- Open the main valve slowly to gradually recharge the pipes
- Inspect the system zone by zone for leaks
- Replace cracked or broken sprinkler heads
- Unclog sprinkler nozzles
- Check the backflow prevention device
- Make sure your lawn receives full coverage
- Check the water pressure
- Adjust the controller and timer to your preferred settings
- Inspect rain sensors
