A disciplined spring start-up: zone-by-zone verification, prioritized findings, and practical fixes that prevent mid-season failures and water waste.
SERVICE SEASON: MARCH thru SEPT
FOUND IN The Essentials Plan
A service-first visit that finds the root cause—not just the symptom. We verify zones, tune coverage, correct leaks and head/nozzle issues, and document what we find so follow-up stays simple.
REPAIR SEASON: MAY thru OCT
PLAN DISCOUNTS APPLY
Disciplined blow-out service that clears zones safely and reduces freeze risk. We flag weak points now—so spring doesn’t start with surprises.
Fuel surcharge: when diesel is above $4/gal,
add $5 per winterization visit.
SHUT-DOWN SEASON: SEPT thru NOV
FOUND IN The Essentials Plan
Tiered smart-control retrofit for typical 3/4"–1" irrigation services. Tier 1 adds connectivity + a Rachio 3 controller foundation; Tier 2 adds abnormal-flow protection (master valve + flow meter) when the site supports it; Tier 3 pairs SRMS™ with Service Plans so alerts and monitoring turn into scheduled response. Service lines larger than 1" are in development.
Service-first landscape lighting: design/install, repairs, upgrades, and control. See the full breakdown on lighting.html and dive into upgrades on lighting-upgrades.html.
Most lighting problems are voltage drop, corrosion at splices, transformer/timer drift, or fixture failures. We troubleshoot, restore reliability, then scope upgrades when you want a cleaner result.

"Green Guru transformed my yard! I had Glenn install landscape lighting for the front pathway and in the back around my pond. He was very knowledgeable about how the remote lighting system worked and explained it in easy to understand terms. He was careful to work around all my plants and shrubs and did not sacrifice a good job to speed. I love the lighting."

"Green Guru is the best! We had basically a non functioning irrigation system and after 2 prior companies offered little to no advice Glenn was able to identify the problem and help us fix it. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable and went above and beyond to help us get our system up and running . We can’t recommend this company enough."

"Glenn is always on time and always provides a solution. He is very knowledgeable about all sprinkler systems and won’t try to up sell you on products/services. I was in my home for 3 years before I had the sprinkler system activated, the previous owner didn’t use the sprinkler system at all. Glenn was able to repair my system at minimal cost. I’m looking forward to Glenn installing my new timer. The BEST in the business!"

More FAQs: Irrigation • Lighting • SRMS™ • Service Plans
A: Yes. We troubleshoot no-start zones, low flow, leaks, broken heads, wiring issues, and valve symptoms. A Tune-Up & Repair Visit is the fastest way to get the system back to predictable performance.
A: Yes. We replace the head and confirm the underlying cause (mower damage, pressure, poor fitment, or a cracked riser) so it doesn’t become a repeat failure.
A: A wet spot is often a line, fitting, or valve leak. We locate the failure, repair it, and verify coverage so you stop wasting water and avoid landscape damage.
A: It depends on soil, exposure, slope, and nozzle selection — but as a rule, deeper and less frequent watering builds stronger roots. We can tune runtimes and start times so coverage improves without runoff.
A: Yes — winterization (blow-out) clears water from lines and valves so freeze damage doesn’t become spring surprises. In our area, Sept–Nov is the typical window.
A: Most homes run best around 50–70 PSI. Pressure that’s consistently 80+ PSI is considered high and can accelerate leaks and failures (including irrigation parts and exterior hose connections).
Common signs of excessive pressure:
If pressure is the root cause, we can verify it and recommend a PRV-based fix path.
A: If you see soggy zones, runoff, or a higher-than-normal bill, it’s often a leak, a stuck valve, or overspray/coverage inefficiency. We can audit the system, tune it, and recommend upgrades (like pressure regulation or smart control) when they’re the right next step.
A: Yes. We troubleshoot fixtures, transformers, taps, and wiring/splice failures, then restore reliable operation before recommending upgrades.
A: Flicker is usually a loose/corroded splice, a failing lamp, or voltage drop. We find the weak link, repair it, and rebalance runs for consistent output.
A: Absolutely. We can expand a system, upgrade to LED, and keep it serviceable by fixing wire gauge, waterproof splices, and transformer sizing as we go.
A: The big one is splice discipline — waterproof connections prevent corrosion failures. We also clean lenses, re-aim fixtures, and keep vegetation from swallowing the beam.
A: Yes. LEDs reduce power draw, run cooler, and last longer. The best value comes from pairing quality fixtures with correct voltage and serviceable wiring/splices.
A: Not always. Tier 1 is designed to add dedicated connectivity so control and monitoring remain serviceable even when customer Wi‑Fi isn’t available or reliable.
A: SRMS is a strong fit for 3/4"–1" irrigation services where you want better visibility, control, and follow-through. HOA common areas and small commercial sites are common use cases.
A: When the site supports it, Tier 2 adds abnormal-flow protection (master valve + flow). The goal is less damage and less waste, but proper configuration and validation are part of the scope.
A: High pressure can create repeat failures. We verify pressure and recommend regulation first, so smart control is built on a stable foundation.
A: SRMS is irrigation-focused. For lighting, Smart Link provides the connectivity foundation so transformer control and schedules stay simple and serviceable.
