Sprinkler Leak Detection in Grand Prairie, Texas
Quiet leaks in Grand Prairie clay look like rain. We start at the water meter, then open only the wet spot.
NE Grand Prairie yards we serve show Mid-Cities dry zones.

Leak detection starts at the meter and the backflow. If the meter moves with every valve off, the leak is on the main or the house side. If it only moves when a zone is live, we walk that lateral.
We look for winter (rare here) and summer tells: mushrooms in a ring, ants abandoning a wet spot, a sidewalk that never dries, a hiss at a valve. Acoustic listening helps on long mains. A shovel still closes the file.
High bills in a Bedford August are often a stuck valve watering from 2 a.m. until noon. That is a leak in effect. We treat it as one.
Why Grand Prairie lawns fail this way
Grand Prairie is Mid-Cities watering: clay that breaks pipe, St. Augustine and Bermuda that want a soak, North Texas storms that wipe timers, and mowers that take every proud pop-up.
