When your sprinkler system works right, everything else falls into place. No more brown patches where heads aren’t reaching. No more flooding where valves stick open. No more surprise water bills because your system’s running when it shouldn’t.
You get consistent coverage across every zone. Water goes where it’s supposed to go, when it’s supposed to go there. Your grass stays green without you having to think about it.
The difference between a quick patch job and a proper repair shows up in your next water bill. It shows up in how your lawn looks six months from now. It shows up in whether you’re calling for emergency service next season or enjoying your yard.
Sprinkler Contractors of Palm Beaches LLC has been serving Westgate and the broader Palm Beach County area for decades. We’ve seen every type of irrigation failure this climate can dish out.
Florida’s heat, humidity, and sudden downpours create unique challenges for sprinkler systems. Sand, clay, and limestone soil conditions affect water pressure and drainage differently across neighborhoods. We know which sprinkler heads work best in Westgate’s soil conditions and which controllers can handle the area’s variable weather patterns.
Our technicians have worked on thousands of residential and commercial properties throughout Palm Beach County. When you call us, you’re getting someone who understands your specific irrigation challenges, not just sprinkler systems in general.
First, we test your entire system zone by zone. We’re not just looking at the obvious problem – we’re checking water pressure, valve operation, head coverage patterns, and controller programming. Most issues have underlying causes that create bigger problems if you don’t address them.
Next, we explain exactly what’s wrong and what it’ll cost to fix it properly. No surprises, no upselling. If your system needs a $40 sprinkler head replacement, that’s what we’ll recommend. If it needs a complete valve rebuild, we’ll tell you why and show you the problem.
Then we make the repair using quality parts that match your system’s specifications. We test everything again to make sure the fix actually solved the problem. Before we leave, we’ll show you how to spot early warning signs of future issues and give you realistic expectations about maintenance.

We handle everything from simple sprinkler head replacements to complex valve repairs and controller programming. Broken heads, stuck valves, wiring problems, water pressure issues, clogged nozzles, and system leaks – we fix them all.
Westgate’s sandy soil can cause sprinkler heads to sink or shift over time, creating uneven coverage. The area’s occasional freeze events can damage exposed pipes and fittings. Summer thunderstorms sometimes overwhelm drainage systems, affecting sprinkler timing and efficiency.
Our repair service includes pressure testing to ensure optimal water flow, valve inspection and cleaning, sprinkler head adjustment for proper coverage, and controller reprogramming for seasonal efficiency. We also install rain sensors as required by Florida law and upgrade older systems with water-saving technology when it makes financial sense.
Every repair comes with our guarantee that it’ll work as intended. We don’t consider a job finished until your system operates reliably and efficiently.
Most sprinkler repairs in Westgate cost between $100 and $400, depending on the problem and parts needed. Simple fixes like replacing a broken sprinkler head run $40 to $60. More complex issues like valve replacement or controller problems can cost $150 to $300.
We charge a diagnostic fee for the initial service call, which covers our time to properly assess your system and identify all issues. This prevents surprise costs and ensures we fix the root problem, not just the symptoms. Emergency calls outside normal business hours cost more, but most repairs can wait until regular service hours.
The key is addressing problems early. A $40 sprinkler head replacement today prevents a $200 valve replacement next month when that broken head causes pressure problems throughout the zone.
Broken or damaged sprinkler heads top the list. Lawnmowers, foot traffic, and settling soil frequently damage heads, causing poor coverage or water waste. Clogged nozzles from Florida’s mineral-rich water are also common, especially in areas with hard water.
Valve problems rank second. Valves stick open or closed due to debris, wear, or electrical issues. This creates overwatering in some zones and underwatering in others. Wiring problems from moisture, pests, or age can prevent zones from turning on at all.
Controller issues become more frequent as systems age. Older timers struggle with Florida’s variable weather patterns and may not include required rain sensors. Water pressure problems can develop when municipal supply changes or when multiple zones run simultaneously without proper pressure regulation.
Quarterly inspections work best for most residential systems in Florida. Spring startup service prepares your system for peak growing season. Summer checks catch problems before they damage your lawn during the hottest months. Fall service adjusts timing for cooler weather and reduced water needs.
Winter inspections prepare your system for occasional freeze events and identify any damage from the previous year. Regular maintenance typically costs $85 per visit and prevents most emergency repairs. Systems that receive quarterly service last longer and use water more efficiently.
If your system is older than 10 years or you’ve had multiple repairs recently, you might benefit from more frequent inspections. New systems or those recently upgraded can often go longer between professional services, but annual inspections remain important for warranty compliance and optimal performance.
Yes, we work on all major irrigation brands including Rain Bird, Hunter, Toro, Irritrol, and Orbit systems. Each manufacturer uses different valve designs, controller programming, and sprinkler head specifications, but the basic repair principles remain consistent across brands.
We stock common parts for most systems and can source specialized components for older or less common brands. Sometimes we recommend upgrading individual components to more reliable or efficient options, especially when original parts are no longer available or have known design flaws.
Our technicians receive ongoing training on new products and techniques. Whether you have a basic timer system from the 1990s or a smart controller installed last year, we have the knowledge and tools to diagnose problems and make effective repairs.
First, check that your controller is plugged in and displaying properly. Look for tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses in your electrical panel. Verify that your main water supply valve is fully open and that any manual valve overrides on your controller are in the “auto” position.
If power and water supply look normal, try running each zone manually from the controller. If no zones activate, the problem is likely with the controller, main valve, or electrical connections. If some zones work but others don’t, individual zone valves or wiring may be damaged.
Don’t attempt to force stuck valves or bypass electrical components. Water and electricity create dangerous combinations, and improper repairs can damage expensive controller components. Call us for proper diagnosis and repair. Most “won’t turn on” problems are fixable within a few hours and don’t require system replacement.
Yes, we handle emergency repairs for situations that could damage your property or waste significant water. Broken main lines, stuck valves flooding your yard, or systems that won’t shut off qualify as emergencies requiring immediate attention.
Emergency service costs more than regular appointments because we’re disrupting our schedule and often working outside normal hours. However, the cost of emergency service is usually less than the water damage, landscape replacement, or utility bills that result from delayed repairs.
For less urgent issues like individual broken sprinkler heads or zones that aren’t watering properly, we recommend scheduling regular service appointments. This saves you money and allows us to do more thorough diagnostics and repairs. Most sprinkler problems can wait 24-48 hours without causing permanent damage to your lawn.
