Irrigation Controller Repair in Willis, Texas
Storms wipe timers in Willis. We test the panel, then set night watering with rest between cycles.
Willis is north of Conroe on I-45. Town lots and acreage wells do not share a nozzle chart. We test pressure at the last head and we do not copy a Spring parkway layout onto a two-acre well system.
North I-45 beyond Conroe. Same lake-belt watering as Montgomery when the day allows.
A sprinkler timer that looks dead is often a blown fuse, a loose common, or a transformer that cooked on a west-facing garage wall. We test first. If the board is gone, we replace it with a panel that holds a program through a blink — battery backup or a Wi-Fi model if you want phone control.
Programming matters as much as hardware. St. Augustine in Spring clay does not want six-minute daily sprays. We set shorter watering cycles so clay can soak it in so runoff does not sheet down the driveway, and we point you at Harris County watering rules when they apply.
Smart controllers help when the rain sensor is honest and the zones are matched. They do not fix a broken head. We say that on the visit.
Why Willis lawns fail this way
Willis is pine, oak, and sandy loam over a clay contact. Forest lots drain downhill. Irrigation that treats a pine lot like an open Spring parkway drowns the shade and starves the sun. Duff clogs heads. We split sun and shade when we can.
Soil. north Montgomery sand and loam; wells on acreage
Grass. St. Augustine, acreage Bermuda, pine shade
Houses. town lots plus I-45 north growth and lake-adjacent acreage Typical failures: wells, long laterals, new-build punch lists, low pressure at far heads
We restore the parkway or yard when the trench is closed. If Willis has city sidewalk rules or an HOA standard, we follow it. Utility lines get marked before every cut.
How a visit works

- Read the program Start times, run times, odd/even, seasonal adjust.
- Repair or replace Board, transformer, or a new controller of the same class.
- Program for Spring Night watering, shorter watering cycles so clay can soak it in, rain sensor enabled.
