Irrigation & Lighting Services in Chicago
Growing and maintaining a beautiful lawn in Chicago requires a well-tuned irrigation or sprinkler system. Without one, you will spend hours each week dragging a hose around the yard. If you have a sprinkler system, but it is old or in need of repair, you will waste water and money, and still have a dried up or patchy yard. To maintain a pretty green lawn, you need a good Chicago irrigation system, in working order, and a top-notch maintenance company to call when trouble hits.
What can go Wrong with Your Sprinkler System
Irrigation systems are notoriously finicky and difficult to manage. From homeowner lawns to giant commercial irrigation systems, any number of things can happen that will derail the operation and necessitate irrigation system repair.
Potential Problems
- Popup spray heads cease to pop up
- Rotary spray heads cease to rotate
- Nozzles and small tubing clogs with dirt or other debris
- Spray heads are run over with the lawnmower or kicked
- A power failure re-sets the system incorrectly
- A contractor cuts through a pipe
- Spray heads spring leaks
- Tubing becomes kinked
- Valves leak
- Filter screens become clogged
Lighting Your Chicago Home
Landscape lighting can add value and enjoyment to your Chicago property. Inexpensive landscape lighting can be set up by the do-it-yourselfer using solar stand-alone fixtures. These fixtures contain photocells that turn the lights on after dark. They also include batteries for storage.
They require some maintenance and the amount of light they provide is limited by the amount of sunlight available and by the low wattage. More reliable landscape lighting needs to be hardwired and connected to an electrical source. If you are remodeling or constructing a new building, your Chicago landscape lighting should be considered as you design your overall project. It is a good idea to install a conduit to a junction box for a central location for landscape lighting.
