Common Questions
Spring Start-Up FAQs
When should I schedule a spring sprinkler start-up in Michigan?
We recommend scheduling your spring start-up in March or April — once overnight temperatures are consistently above freezing. Spring is our busiest season, so the earlier you call, the better your chances of getting your preferred date.
What is included in a spring start-up?
Our spring start-up includes reconnecting the water supply, running every zone, inspecting all sprinkler heads, adjusting spray patterns, reprogramming the controller for the season, testing water pressure, and checking for any freeze damage from winter.
Do you inspect every zone?
Yes — we run every zone and walk the property to inspect each head individually. We don't just turn the water on and leave. We make sure every zone is working correctly before we go.
Can winter damage be found during start-up?
Absolutely. Spring start-up is one of the best times to catch freeze damage — cracked pipes, broken heads, and failed valves often don't show up until the system is pressurized and running. We document any issues we find and give you an honest assessment.
Can you reprogram my sprinkler controller?
Yes. Controller programming is included in every spring start-up. We'll update your schedule for the current season and make sure your zones are running at the right times and durations for your lawn.
