FAQ
Common Questions About Irrigation & Drainage
How often should sprinkler backflow devices be tested in Ohio?
Ohio requires annual backflow prevention device testing for all irrigation systems connected to public water supplies. We handle the inspection, documentation, and any necessary repairs to keep your system compliant and your water safe.
What causes standing water in my yard?
Standing water in Warren County yards is usually caused by clay-heavy soil that drains poorly, improper grading, or overwhelmed existing drainage. We diagnose the root cause and install solutions like French drains, drywells, or channel drains to redirect water away from your home and landscape.
Can you install a new sprinkler system on an existing property?
Yes. We design and install irrigation systems on established properties throughout Lebanon, Springboro, and Mason. Our installations minimize lawn disruption and include smart timers and sensors for efficient watering that adapts to Ohio's variable weather patterns.
How do I winterize my irrigation system?
We recommend a professional blowout of your sprinkler lines before the first freeze, typically by mid-October in Southwest Ohio. This prevents frozen water from cracking pipes and damaging sprinkler heads. We offer winterization as part of our seasonal service packages.
