Hidden leaks in Alamo Heights show up as a spiked bill, a soggy strip, or pressure loss across several zones. We pinpoint before we dig.
Mature canopy and HOA-sensitive lawns. San Antonio irrigation lives with limestone, caliche, pockets of black clay, Edwards Aquifer hard water, and long hot summers. Those conditions scale nozzles, walk heads out of grade, and punish weak valves.
Leak Detection & Line Repair in Alamo Heights
This is a Bexar County route we run weekly. We do not treat Alamo Heights like a generic Texas suburb — the soil, the water, and the HOA clock on this street are what set the repair.
How the visit goes
1) Confirm the leak with the meter and a zone isolation.
2) Pinpoint before opening ground.
3) Repair with the same pipe type already in the trench.
4) Backfill, compact, and reseat sod.
Local conditions
Hard water in Bexar County scales nozzles. Limestone and clay shift heads. If you want the neighborhood page, see sprinkler repair in Alamo Heights.
What you can do before we arrive
Write down the station number, whether it fails only after rain, and whether the controller shows an error. Those three notes cut diagnostic time.
Parts and brands
Rain Bird, Hunter, Toro, Irritrol, Weathermatic, and K-Rain parts are not always interchangeable. On Alamo Heights systems we document what is in the ground and match precipitation rates so one head does not drown a bed while another dusts the turf.
If a model is discontinued we install the closest hydraulic match and tell you what changed. We do not leave a mixed zone that cannot be scheduled honestly.

Quick question
Will you have to tear up the lawn? We isolate and pinpoint first. Most lateral repairs are one small opening, not a trench from the box to the street.
When to call
Call Sprinkler Repair Tech if a zone will not shut off, water is pooling toward a foundation, or half the yard is offline in Alamo Heights heat. Those are same-week jobs. Tune-ups and audits book on the next route day.
We are a call-first repair company. Technicians carry solenoids, diaphragms, spray bodies, rotors, and nozzle trees so most Alamo Heights repairs finish in one visit. You get a plain-language explanation of what failed and how to water the soil you actually have.
Photograph the controller program before any upgrade. Label the valve box once we find it. Those two habits prevent a lot of repeat Alamo Heights calls after the next landscaper or freeze.
