Sprinkler System Upgrade: Manifold Replacement, Shut-Off Valve, Plumbing Repair & Backflow Install

Jobs
A full sprinkler system upgrade can completely transform performance, efficiency, and reliability. In this project, we replaced a failing 5-valve manifold, installed a new shut-off valve, repaired leaking plumbing, and upgraded the backflow preventer to protect the home’s water supply. The existing manifold had multiple failing valves, causing zones to stick on and perform inconsistently. By installing a new manifold, we restored proper zone control and improved overall system efficiency. Combined with plumbing upgrades and a new backflow device, this system is now leak-free, safe, and built for long-term performance. Signs Your Sprinkler Manifold Needs Replacement Multiple valves not turning on/off properly Zones stuck running continuously Visible leaks around valves Poor pressure in certain zones Older systems with worn-out components
