When a sprinkler system stops working the way it should, the fix starts with finding the actual cause.
Stonewell provides sprinkler and irrigation repair for homes throughout Wichita and surrounding communities, including systems we didn't install. We troubleshoot methodically, explain what we find, and recommend a repair that addresses the problem instead of just the symptom.
Many issues are straightforward, like a broken head or a clogged nozzle. Others, like a zone that won't turn on or pressure that drops across the whole system, take careful diagnosis. Either way, you'll know what's wrong and what it takes to fix it before work begins.
We run the system zone by zone, check the controller, valves, and heads, and trace the problem to its source.
You get a plain explanation of what's wrong, what we recommend, and what it costs before we start.
We make the repair, then run the affected zones to confirm everything is working as it should.
Small sprinkler problems tend to become expensive ones: wasted water, dead patches, and damage that spreads. Here's what we look for and how we fix it.
Common warning signs include soggy spots or standing water that won't dry out, dry or brown patches in an otherwise green lawn, heads that don't pop up or spray unevenly, a zone that won't turn on or won't shut off, a sudden jump in your water bill, and water bubbling up from the ground.
If you notice any of these, it's worth having the system checked sooner rather than later. A leak or stuck valve can waste a lot of water in a short time.
When a zone stops working, the cause is usually a failed valve or solenoid, a wiring issue between the controller and the valve, a controller setting, or a damaged line. We test each piece in order so the repair addresses the real problem, not just the symptom.
Controller problems can look like mechanical failures, and mechanical failures can look like controller problems. Methodical diagnosis saves you from paying for parts you didn't need.
Weak spray and dry spots can come from leaks, clogged nozzles or filters, mismatched heads, too many heads on one zone, or heads that have shifted or sunk over time. We find the cause and correct it, whether that's a repair, a nozzle change, or a small layout adjustment.
Most systems are worth repairing. Many older systems have good bones and just need fixes or targeted upgrades. If a system has widespread problems and replacement truly makes more sense, we'll explain why and show you the options side by side.

Yes. Much of our repair work is on existing systems installed by other companies or previous homeowners.
The usual causes are a faulty valve or solenoid, a wiring problem between the controller and the valve, a controller setting, or a break in the line. Diagnosis tells us which one it is.
Often, yes. Many older systems have good bones and just need repairs or targeted upgrades. If replacement makes more sense, we'll tell you why.
A leak in the irrigation system, a valve that won't fully close, or a controller running more than intended are common causes. A system check can pinpoint it.
Low pressure, a leak elsewhere in the zone, debris in the head, or a damaged head are the usual causes. We diagnose which one it is before replacing anything.
