Residential & Commercial Irrigation Across Southeast Michigan
Hunter HydroTech LLC provides residential and commercial sprinkler repair, spring start-ups, winterization blow-outs, valve and manifold repair, leak detection, backflow replacement, smart controller upgrades, pump system repair, system revamps, and new irrigation installations.
Based in Sterling Heights and serving communities throughout Macomb County, Oakland County, St. Clair County, Wayne County, Livingston County, and surrounding Southeast Michigan.
Hunter HydroTech works on irrigation systems of many ages, layouts, and water sources. We service older sprinkler systems in established neighborhoods, newer subdivision systems, waterfront and lake-fed irrigation, city-water systems with backflow assemblies, large residential properties, and commercial landscapes throughout Southeast Michigan.
Whether you need sprinkler repair, a spring sprinkler start-up or turn-on, sprinkler winterization or blow-out service, irrigation leak detection, sprinkler valve or manifold repair, backflow replacement, WiFi sprinkler timer installation, irrigation pump system repair, or a new sprinkler system, this services hub connects you to the right service page, local service area, and technical guide.
Our technicians look beyond the first visible symptom. Depending on the service call, we may check zone operation, sprinkler coverage, rotors and spray heads, valve boxes, manifolds, wiring, controller settings, water pressure, backflow components, pump operation, suction or intake problems, and the condition of the mainline and lateral piping. The goal is to identify the real problem and explain the repair options clearly.
Start with the service that best matches your problem. Each main service links to its dedicated parent page so customers and search engines can clearly understand Hunter HydroTech's irrigation specialties.

Irrigation backflow replacement for leaking, cracked, frozen, failed, or outdated assemblies, including common PVB and RPZ installations from Zurn, Wilkins, Febco, Watts, and Conbraco.

Low pressure, broken piping, clogged heads, valve problems, pump issues, or too much demand on a zone can all cause weak operation.
Sprinkler repair optionsCommon causes include failed solenoids, diaphragms, wiring faults, controller problems, damaged valves, or water-supply issues.
Valve & manifold repairA stuck or damaged irrigation valve, debris, diaphragm failure, or valve-body problem may allow water to continue flowing.
Diagnose a stuck zoneUnderground pipe leaks, bad fittings, leaking manifolds, damaged valves, cracked heads, and mainline leaks can waste water and reduce pressure.
Leak detection & repairLost prime, suction leaks, clogged intake screens, foot-valve issues, filters, relay problems, air leaks, and pump wear can reduce performance.
Pump system repairOlder mechanical and digital timers can be replaced with modern controllers, including WiFi-enabled Hunter Hydrawise options.
Smart controller upgradesCracked bodies, failed shutoffs, leaking test cocks, worn internal components, and winter damage may require repair or replacement.
Backflow replacementPatios, additions, driveways, new beds, fences, trees, and landscape changes can leave old sprinkler layouts with dry spots or overspray.
New zones & system changesMany Southeast Michigan properties use municipal water and include a shutoff, backflow preventer, irrigation mainline, zone valves or manifolds, controller wiring, and spray or rotor zones. We diagnose leaks, pressure problems, stuck zones, failed valves, broken heads, controller issues, and backflow problems.
City-water service is especially common throughout Sterling Heights, Troy, Rochester Hills, Utica, Shelby Township, Grosse Pointe, Warren, Macomb, Royal Oak, Birmingham, and surrounding communities.
Pump-fed sprinkler systems can fail differently than city-water systems. Problems may involve the pump, suction line, intake screen, foot valve, check valve, filter, electrical feed, pump-start relay, priming, air entering the suction side, or inadequate pressure and flow.
Pump and lake-fed systems are common in waterfront and larger-property areas including St. Clair Shores, Harrison Township, New Baltimore, Marine City-area communities, Shelby Township, Bloomfield-area properties, and other parts of Southeast Michigan.
Product availability and the best repair option vary by system, but Hunter HydroTech works with professional irrigation components and familiar residential and commercial brands.

Hunter HydroTech is based in Sterling Heights and serves a broad Southeast Michigan area. Many service calls and projects are accepted within roughly a 60-mile service area depending on job type, system, scheduling, and project size. If your city is not listed below, contact us to confirm availability.
Our core service territory includes Macomb County and Oakland County, with additional work throughout parts of St. Clair County, Wayne County, Livingston County, and nearby Southeast Michigan communities. Service availability can vary for small seasonal visits versus larger repairs, pump work, commercial irrigation, system revamps, and new installations.
Irrigation problems are often connected. A dry zone can be a broken pipe, valve issue, wiring problem, pressure limitation, clogged head, pump problem, or controller fault. We work through the system so the repair recommendation is based on what the property actually needs.
When the service allows, we check operation across the system rather than focusing only on the first broken part we see.
We can separate repairs needed for proper operation from upgrades that may improve coverage, reliability, efficiency, or convenience.
We service residential lawns, larger properties, pump-fed systems, city-water irrigation, and commercial landscapes with different system sizes and requirements.
