Sprinkler Winterization in Livonia, MI (Air Blowouts · Fall Shut‑Down)

Protect your irrigation system from Michigan freezes with a professional sprinkler blowout. We safely clear water from piping, valves, and the backflow preventer, shut the system down for winter, and help you avoid costly spring repairs. Serving Livonia and nearby cities with fast fall scheduling.

Why Winterization Matters

  • Prevent freeze damage to pipes, valves, and the backflow device
  • Avoid spring leaks and unexpected repairs
  • Maintain water safety by protecting the backflow preventer (PVB/RPZ/DCVA)
  • Extend system life with a proper fall shut‑down routine

What’s Included in a Professional Blowout

System Preparation

  • Shut off irrigation water supply
  • Open manual drains as needed
  • Isolate/prepare the backflow preventer for air

Air Blowout

  • Introduce regulated air to each zone
  • Clear lateral lines, valves, and heads
  • Cycle zones until only mist/air remains

Backflow & Controller

  • Set PVB/RPZ/DCVA to a safe winter position
  • Turn controller to Off / Rain Mode (or power down)
  • Provide quick notes if issues are found

Pricing & Best Time to Book

Flat‑rate winterization for most homes. Larger or complex systems are quoted after a quick assessment.

We winterize from late September through November (weather‑dependent). Book early to secure your preferred date.

Our Winterization Process

  1. Arrival & setup: Access the controller, backflow, and air connection point.
  2. Zone‑by‑zone blowout: Regulated air clears the lines and heads safely.
  3. Backflow protection: Set to winter position; open test cocks/ports as appropriate.
  4. Shutdown & notes: Controller off, quick visual check, and recommendations if we see issues.

Before We Arrive & After We Leave

Before

  • Ensure gates are unlocked and pets are secured
  • Know where your controller and backflow are located
  • Provide access if a basement or garage valve must be closed

After

  • Leave the water supply off until spring
  • Keep the controller in Off / Rain Mode
  • Contact us if you notice leaking at the backflow or manifolds

A Friendly Note About Winterizing

Winterization is designed to clear water and safely shut down your system for cold weather. We do a quick visual pass while blowing out, but it’s not the same as our detailed spring start‑up where we walk each head, adjust coverage, and program the controller. Some issues may only appear in the spring under water pressure—if that happens, we’ll help you get it fixed promptly.

We provide sprinkler winterization across Livonia (48150, 48152, 48154), plus Westland, Redford, Garden City, Plymouth, Canton, Farmington, Farmington Hills, Northville, Novi, and Dearborn Heights.

Winterization — FAQs

When should I schedule my blowout?
Most homeowners schedule in October to early November, before consistent overnight freezes.
Will winterization find every leak?
Winterization clears water and provides a quick visual check. A full leak/coverage inspection happens at spring start‑up under water pressure.
Do you add antifreeze?
No. We use regulated air to remove water from lines and components. RV antifreeze isn’t used in typical lawn sprinkler systems.
Can you come if I’m not home?
Yes, as long as we have exterior access to the controller/backflow and any gates. If the water shut‑off is inside, someone will need to provide access.

About Us
We had a broken sprinkler pipe under a very thick slab of concrete. Mark was meticulous in figuring out where the pipe broke, he did a very neat job cutting out the concrete, replacing the pipe, and replacing some valves. The estimate was accurate, and the work was completed in a timely manner. Mark was great about texting and communicating. Thanks so much for a great job!

Called for someone to come out to take a look at leak under my sidewalk next to my house/front door. Two gentlemen came out on time, quickly diagnosed the problem, and gave me information about the fix.
