FAQ's About Las Vegas Sprinkler Repair

Does It Matter What Time You Water Your Lawn?

Yes. The best time to water your lawn is between 4 am and 6 am, before the sun has had a chance to warm up the ground. Since the sun hasn't had time to raise the ground temperature, the water will penetrate the soil instead of evaporating. This both conserves water and provides a good, healthy start to the daily growth cycle. Our Las Vegas sprinkler repair tech know this and more, let out expertise help you. Contact us today.

Is It Possible to Overwater?

In Las Vegas, where the average rainfall never reaches an inch per month, you need to water your lawn frequently. Unfortunately, some people think this means every day. It doesn't. Grass needs around an inch of water a week to maintain a plush green. This can be achieved by watering every three days. Although you may want to water more, this can lead to fungal disease which is just as bad, if not worse, than drought.

Is There a "Right" Way to Water Your Lawn?

A professionally installed sprinkler system is the best way to get even coverage over your lawn. It is also the most efficient watering technique. Let your local Las Vegas sprinkler repair team install a top of the line sprinkler system for you lawn.

What Does the Sprinkler's Controller Unit Do?

The controller module on a sprinkler system allows you to program the time of day and length of watering session for your sprinkler system. The entire week can be programmed in this way. It's a set-it and forget-it system. When controllers are used in tandem with rain sensors, you won't even have to manually turn off the system in case of a freak storm.

What Kind of Lawn Should I Install?

If you want a lawn in Nevada, you're best off with a strong, hearty grass that can take direct exposure and limited drought. Buffalo grass, Bermuda grass, and Zoysiagrass are all great options. All three provide warm season turfs that will thrive in the summer, but go dormant when the hard freezes hit. Warm season turfs also have the benefit of using less water than cool season varieties.
