Questions people ask
What is a backflow device and why do I need one?
A backflow device prevents water from your sprinkler system flowing backward into the city water main. This is critical because sprinkler water contains contaminants that could sicken people if they entered the public water supply. Texas law requires every sprinkler system to have a backflow device, and many require annual testing. Top Notch is licensed to test and certify backflow systems.
Can I pour concrete over my sprinkler lines?
No. Concrete over sprinkler pipes makes future repairs extremely costly and difficult. Have affected lines, heads, and valves moved out of the way of any concrete areas before pouring. Top Notch can relocate lines to avoid this problem.
My sprinkler head leaks constantly. What's wrong?
A constantly leaking head usually means the internal valve isn't closing completely, so the diaphragm inside isn't sealing. Top Notch rebuilds and repairs all valve types, replacing diaphragms to stop the leak and eliminate water waste.
My sprinkler heads don't spray high enough. Do I need a new system?
No. The heads likely just need to be raised so they pop up above the grass. Top Notch digs each head up and raises it to ground level so mowers won't damage it and it sprays evenly over your lawn.
Is landscape lighting worth the cost?
Yes. LED outdoor lighting beautifies your yard, increases curb appeal, adds resale value, and improves security and safety. Top Notch designs and installs LED systems as "art and function," using expertise to create numerous lighting options that look beautiful and work reliably.
