Eric was great, he was friendly and on time. My job ended up being bigger than I originally expected and he showed me the issues and explained what was necessary without BSing me. Would definitely use again in the future.

    Of the three sprinkler repair companies I contacted, Hessenauer was the only one to respond. They provided a date and time, and they arrived on schedule. They did a thorough inspection and fixed multiple problems for a reasonable cost. They are now my "go to" sprinkler repair company.

    Eric has been out here twice to correct everyone else's mistakes and I am so grateful.  I finally have my irrigation system working as it should.  This is a quality company with excellent workers who know their stuff. I'm glad I found them.

    Eric was out today to repair 3 valves damaged by a lightning hit.  Was on-time, communicated his arrival, and clearly explained the problem.   Very professional.  Emma also was a pleasure to deal with when making the appointment.  Will definitely use them again.

    Could not have worked with a better team. They came out, heard what I wanted, then validated that it was needed, and gave me a quote. They did a lot of repairs on my old system and it is up and running again. I could not have been more impressed with their timeliness, professionalism, and attention to my specific needs as an old home. I will use them again when needed.

    I was impressed with Hessenauer Irrigation.  Jay did a great job replacing an old irrigation clock.  He didn't stop there, he checked each of my 4 zones and replaced a few heads that needed to be replaced.  I'm saving their contact info and will definitely use them next time I need any work done!

Proper sprinkler spacing can be the determining factor between a well-done project and a poor one. Because we do not want brown patches in our lawns, homeowners should focus on proper sprinkler spacing.

Many of our customers have recommended and rehired Hessenauer Sprinkler Repair and Irrigation because we provide high-quality custom irrigation system installations completed right the first time.

Water spray depends on water pressure, gallons-per-minute rating, location, and sprinkler head type. Proper sprinkler head spacing could very well mean the difference between healthy, plush, green lawns and brown patches of grass.

The goal of proper water distribution for head-to-head coverage is to keep the turf uniformly green and healthy.

Head-to-head coverage ensures that the water spray overlaps from one sprinkler head to the next.

The actual distance between sprinkler heads is determined by the gpm nozzle and the water pressure in the system. If stand-alone spacing is used, your lawn will likely develop brown areas where insufficient water is being applied. This can be partially overcome by increasing watering time, but this approach will increase the cost of watering and waste considerably more water. -Rain Bird Spokesman

We refurbish irrigation systems by replacing broken or leaking sprinkler heads and arrange sprinkler heads accordingly to provide proper coverage.
