Sprinkler Head Repair in Fort Pierce

We are Treasure Coast Sprinklers, and we do sprinkler head repair in Fort Pierce for residential and commercial properties. Call and tell us what the heads are doing, and we come out, run the zone and quote the whole job before any work starts.

Most systems carry the "spray head", which pops up and fans water over a bed or a narrow strip, and the "rotor", which turns a stream across the larger stretches of turf. Either kind can crack, clog or get knocked out of line, and the repair differs between them.

What a head repair covers

  • Pop-up spray heads

    Cracked bodies, stems that stick up or stay down, and heads sunk below the grass.

  • Rotors

    Heads that stop turning, turn only part of their arc or throw the stream short.

  • Nozzles

    The "nozzle" shapes the spray, and on a repair it is often cleaned or swapped.

  • Aim and coverage

    Heads turned back onto the lawn and set to reach the edges of the zone.

Is it the head?

Signs of a Broken Sprinkler Head

A damaged head sprays the wrong way, sticks on, fails to pop up or waters the pavement instead of the lawn, and each of those raises the water bill and leads to overwatering.

  • Sprays the wrong way

    The spray hits the wall, the bed or the neighbor's side of the fence.

  • Sticks on

    The stem stays up and water keeps coming after the zone shuts off.

  • Does not pop up

    The head stays down in the grass and the turf around it goes brown.

  • Waters the pavement

    The driveway is wet and the strip of lawn beside it is dry.

Water bubbling up around a head when the zone is off can mean the leak is in the line below it.

How the repair goes

How Heads Are Fixed, Replaced and Adjusted

A head repair redirects heads that spray the wrong way, fixes or replaces heads that do not work, and sets rotors and spray heads for the right amount of water, closing any dry spots in each zone. It follows the EPA's WaterSense Sprinkler Spruce-Up advice to inspect for broken and misdirected heads before watering more.

  1. Run the zone

    The "zone", a group of heads on a single valve, runs from the controller so every bad head shows itself.

  2. Redirect

    A head knocked off its line is turned back until its water lands on turf, not on the wall or the drive.

  3. Fix or replace

    A cracked body or a jammed stem means a new head on the riser, with the nozzle matched to its neighbors.

  4. Close the dry spots

    The zone runs again, and a head that leaves a gap is adjusted or moved until the coverage meets.

Protecting Heads From Mowers and Aerators

Heads get broken by mowers, plows and feet, so the trade flags irrigation heads before a lawn is aerated and the machine steers around them.

A pop-up head sits level with the turf, where a mower wheel rolls over it and an edger catches its rim. The damage tends to show up the next time the zone runs: a head spraying sideways, a stream of water where the nozzle used to be, or a dry patch the head no longer reaches.

Sprinkler Head Repair Cost

Sprinkler head repair is priced per head and by the type of head, and it typically runs $60 to $110 a head.

A rotor and a spray head are different parts, and the head that starts a visit costs more than the ones added after it. Some providers add a trip fee to cover sending a technician out. Minor adjustments often fix a sprinkler problem outright, so a head that only needs turning back costs less than a head that needs replacing.

We quote the whole job before we start, with no surprise charges after.

Typical ranges

Spray head replacement

$65 to $90

A single head, replaced on its own

$130 to $275

Each additional head on the same visit

$30 to $75

What neighbors say

Straight from our Google listing, word for word.

My sprinkler system was 30 years old and needed replaced. They replaced everything on 1-7-21. The crew and Carl were excellent and answered all my questions and explained everything. Carl also explained the NEW digital system to me, making sure I understood how to use it. They only replaced what was necessary and were very fair. Strongly recommend this company.
