The winters we face in North Carolina can be harsh at times and could cause significant damage to your irrigation system if it isn't prepared properly. Because of this, it is always important to have your irrigation system winterized before the freezing temperatures occur! Since this is such an important service that needs to be performed, there are things you need to look for before hiring a company to winterize your system. Be sure to look for a company that has a lot of experience so you feel confident that they know exactly what they're doing. You should also look for a company that can make repairs in case other problems with your system are found. Additionally, you'll want to make sure that the company you hire to winterize your system provides a startup service. By doing this, you can hire the same business to bring your system back online once spring arrives.

Winterizing your irrigation system is an important task that ensures your system is ready to withstand the harsh winter season.

A company with a lot of experience will be able to get the job done efficiently and make you feel confident that they know what they are doing. The company you decide to hire should give you peace of mind knowing that your irrigation system will be properly prepared for the winter season ahead.


Look for a company that can make repairs.

The company you decide to hire to winterize your irrigation system should also be able to make repairs. There is always a chance that a problem with your system could be discovered and you'll want that company to make the necessary repairs as soon as possible. Some issues that the company might find that will need to be repaired include:

  • Broken sprinkler heads
  • Leaking pipes
  • Faulty valves
  • Clogged nozzles
  • Controller re-programing
  • And more!

Always be sure to hire professionals for any type of repairs. Doing it yourself could cause more damage to your system.


Make sure the company you decide to hire offers an irrigation startup service.

Once the harsh winter season has ended, your irrigation system will need to be brought back online in the spring so your plants and grass can receive the water they desperately need. Not only should you hire a reliable company to make sure your system is turned back on correctly, but it is also highly recommended that you use the same company that winterized your system for this startup service. That way, you can feel confident enough that the company you already trusted to winterize your system will do just as good of a job with turning it back on.
