White Bear Lake Sprinkler Repair, Spring Start-Up Through Winterization
Near Matoska Park and across town, the median White Bear Lake home was built in 1970, and a sprinkler system on an established lot is worth planning around before a worn part turns into a repair. We start systems up, fix them and blow them out.
Free, no-obligation estimates. We answer or call back the same working day.
Sprinkler repair in White Bear Lake
We repair sprinkler systems at White Bear Lake homes and businesses, whether the trouble is one broken head or a whole zone that never comes on.
The work runs from a faulty "controller", the box most owners call the timer, down to broken heads and leaks in the lines. Tell us what you see, a dry stripe along the drive, a head that stays down, a soggy corner by the green lid in the yard, and we trace it back to the part that caused it.
On a lot that has been mowed, re-sodded and replanted around for decades, the heads, nozzles and fittings nearest the surface take the most wear. We plan around that by running every zone when the system comes on in spring, so a tired part gets fixed in April instead of found in a brown patch in July.
- Every zone run and walked before we touch a part
- The whole job quoted before we start, with no surprise charges after
Sprinkler service through the White Bear Lake season
Spring is when we start systems up, summer when we tune them and fall when we blow them out, and whatever a visit turns up, we repair. A cracked fitting found at start-up is a quick fix; the same crack found in August has usually soaked the ground around it for weeks.
On any visit, this is the sprinkler work we take on.
-
Sprinkler head repair
A head the mower or the plow caught gets replaced with the same type, a "rotor" for open turf or a spray head for the strips, and its "nozzle" is cleaned or swapped so the water lands on grass.
-
Leak repair
A soggy patch or a "valve box" full of water means a leak. We dig to the cracked pipe or loose fitting, fix it and set the sod back.
-
Valve and controller repair
A zone that will not start, or will not stop, points to its valve, the wiring or the timer. We test each in turn and repair the one at fault.
-
Spring start-up
We turn the water back on slowly, test the "backflow preventer", run each zone for winter damage and set the timer for the season ahead.
-
Fall blow-out
Before the ground freezes we clear the lines with compressed air, the trade's "winterization", so no water is left to crack a pipe or a valve.

Our customers' Google reviews say what a sprinkler job with us is like, in their own words and left as they wrote them.
Glenn with Rainmakers Irrigation is super cool, awesome and trustworthy. We are in Woodbury and almost the whole block on our street goes to Rainmakers for sprinkler installation, general maintenance, winterization, and spring startups. Their services are top notch, responses are timely, and prices are affordable. I would recommend Rainmakers Irrigation to anyone who is out shopping for a service provider to install, expand, or service an irrigation system.
Absolutely great company to deal with .I was quoted by a different company that I needed a whole new irrigation system rainmakers came out and fixed a leak and replaced two sprinkler heads and got my system up and running and saved me $2700.00 dollars .if you need irrigation work done give them a call there an honest family owned local business.

Sprinkler questions from White Bear Lake owners
Two sprinkler questions come up ahead of nearly every repair here, and we answer both below; anything else is a question for the call.
Jump straight to the answer you need.
Who do I call if my sprinkler system is not working?
Call us. Sprinkler repair here takes in faulty controllers, broken heads and leaks, at houses and business grounds alike, and the estimate is free with no obligation. We answer the phone or call back the same working day.
What is the hourly rate for sprinkler repair?
The figure that matters is the price of the whole job, and we give it to you before we start, with no surprise charges after. Quotes are tiered by how many zones the system has, and a pump system or a commercial property costs more to service. What else sets the price is on our page on sprinkler repair cost.
