Sprinkler Blowouts, Repairs & New Systems

Fall blowouts and winterization, spring startups, repairs, and new sprinkler and drip systems for Salt Lake and Utah County yards.

Sprinkler Blowouts & Winterization: from $120

Water left in your sprinkler lines freezes and expands, which can crack pipes, fittings, valves and heads. A blowout pushes the water out of every zone with compressed air so your system makes it through winter and starts clean in spring.

Blowouts from $120. Price depends on the number of zones; we confirm it before we start.

Book a fall cleanup or sprinkler blowout in October and get a free pest spray from Standard Pest Control. New pest customers only.

What we do

  • Blow the water out of every zone with compressed air

  • Check for leaks, adjust heads and clear clogs as needed

  • Winterize properly to help prevent freeze damage

When to book

Book in the fall, before the first hard freeze and around your city's secondary water shutoff. If your sprinklers run on culinary (drinking) water, book before nights drop below freezing.

When does your secondary water shut off?

Secondary water is now off in most cities we serve. Water left in your sprinkler lines can still freeze and crack pipes, valves and heads.

We do sprinkler blowouts the last week of October and the first week of November. Book now to get on the schedule before the first hard freeze.

Sprinkler Blowout FAQs

When should I blow out my sprinklers in Utah?

In the fall, before the first hard freeze and around your city's secondary-water shutoff. In Lehi and Saratoga Springs that's around October 15. Don't wait for the first freezing night, because water sitting in the lines can freeze and crack parts.

My city already shut off the secondary water. Do I still need a blowout?

Yes. Shutting off the supply stops new water from coming in, but water stays in your pipes, valves and heads. Saratoga Springs, for example, tells residents each irrigation system must be completely drained to prevent freeze damage.

What happens if I skip it?

Frozen water can split pipes and fittings and damage valves and heads. You'll usually find it in spring as leaks, soggy spots or zones that won't run, and those repairs cost more than a blowout.

Can I blow out my sprinklers myself?

You can, but most small shop compressors can't move enough air to clear a whole zone, and too much pressure can crack fittings and heads. If you do it yourself, wear eye protection and never stand over a sprinkler head.

How much does a sprinkler blowout cost?

Blowouts start at $120. The final price depends on how many zones your system has, and we'll confirm it before we start. Call (801) 633-4871 to book.

Do you come to my city?

We serve Salt Lake County and Utah County, including Lehi, Saratoga Springs, Eagle Mountain, American Fork, Bluffdale, Herriman, Riverton, South Jordan and Draper. Call to confirm your street.

Do you also do spring startups and repairs?

Yes. We turn systems back on in spring and fix dry spots, broken heads, drip line breaks, valve and controller problems, leaks and overspray.

    Spray, rotor, and drip zones are chosen based on lawn areas, plant beds, sun exposure, and slope.

  2. Trenching & Piping
    Cleanly cut trenches, properly aligned piping, and sturdy connections ensure long-term performance.

  3. Head Placement & Calibration
    We space, level, and align every head to ensure consistent coverage without overspray or brown spots.
