Sprinkler Repair
Irrigation repair in Charleston, SC is one of those things most homeowners and property managers don’t think about, until brown patches show up, a zone stops firing, or the water bill spikes for no obvious reason. Charleston’s sandy Lowcountry soil, high water tables, salt exposure, and long humid summers put unique stress on sprinkler systems. Parts wear out faster here than in many other markets, and a system that ran fine last April can develop valve failures or line leaks by midsummer.
T&T Lawn and Landscape provides irrigation repair and diagnostics for residential and commercial properties throughout the greater Charleston area. Founded and operated by Timothy Fowler, T&T is a single-team operation, meaning the same company that maintains your lawn and landscape beds also understands how your irrigation zones interact with your turf, plantings, and drainage. That matters, because irrigation problems rarely exist in isolation.
Irrigation Repair Services We Offer in Charleston, SC
T&T Lawn and Landscape handles the full range of irrigation repair work for residential yards, commercial properties, and HOA-managed communities. Below is a breakdown of the specific services we provide and what each one involves.
Sprinkler Repair in Charleston, SC
Sprinkler repair covers the hands-on fix work, replacing broken heads, clearing clogged nozzles, repairing cracked risers, and fixing leaking fittings at individual spray points. In Charleston, mower strikes and shifting sandy soil are the two most common causes of sprinkler damage. Heads sink below grade, get sheared off, or lose their arc alignment over a single growing season.
T&T replaces damaged components with commercial-grade parts and resets head heights so they clear the turf line properly. We also check spray patterns after every repair to confirm full coverage across the zone.

Sprinkler System Repair and Diagnostics in Charleston
When the problem goes deeper than a single broken head, we run full system diagnostics. This includes testing each zone individually, checking valve operation, measuring water pressure at multiple points, inspecting wiring from the controller to each valve box, and identifying any underground leaks.
Many irrigation issues in Charleston trace back to corroded solenoids, failed diaphragms inside valves, or controller wiring that’s degraded from moisture exposure. Our diagnostic process isolates the root cause so we fix the actual problem, not just the symptom you can see above ground.
Irrigation Troubleshooting and System Inspections in Charleston, SC
Irrigation troubleshooting is what you need when something is clearly wrong but the cause isn’t obvious. Maybe one zone runs weak while others are fine. Maybe the controller displays normally but a section of lawn is drying out. Or the system cycles on but water pools in one area instead of distributing evenly.
T&T performs zone-by-zone inspections that test pressure, flow rate, head spacing, and controller programming. We look for mismatched head types within zones, pressure regulation issues, and programming errors that cause overlap or gaps in coverage. After the inspection, you get a written summary of findings and a clear repair estimate.
Broken Sprinkler Head Repair in Mount Pleasant, SC
Broken sprinkler heads are the single most common irrigation repair call we receive, and Mount Pleasant properties are no exception. Pop-up heads take a beating from foot traffic, lawn equipment, and soil movement. Rotary heads develop seal failures that cause them to stick or lose their rotation arc.
We stock the most common head types, Hunter, Rain Bird, and Irritrol, so most replacements can be completed in a single visit. For older systems with discontinued parts, we source compatible replacements and confirm performance before leaving the property.
Full-Service Irrigation Maintenance in Charleston, SC
Repairs fix what’s broken. Maintenance prevents breakdowns in the first place. T&T offers seasonal and recurring irrigation maintenance plans that include spring activation checks, mid-season inspections, controller reprogramming for seasonal watering needs, and head-by-head coverage verification.
Our maintenance visits also include efficiency recommendations, upgrading to high-efficiency nozzles, adding rain sensors, or converting spray zones to drip irrigation in landscape beds. These changes reduce water waste and lower monthly utility costs, which adds up quickly across Charleston’s long irrigation season from March through October.
Why Choose T&T Lawn and Landscape for Irrigation Repair in Charleston, SC?
Charleston has several irrigation repair providers. Here’s what separates T&T from the rest.
Owner-involved on every job. Timothy Fowler stays personally involved from the initial property walk through final testing. You’re not handed off between a sales rep and a rotating crew you’ve never met. The person who scopes the work is connected to the person who completes it.
Lowcountry knowledge built into every repair. Charleston’s sandy soil drains fast, which means irrigation systems here run longer cycles than systems in clay-heavy regions. Salt air corrodes exposed metal fittings faster than inland environments. High water tables can push valve boxes out of position. We account for all of this because we live and work here, our office is at 2124 Parsons Corner in Charleston.
Irrigation plus lawn care under one roof. Most irrigation-only companies fix the hardware and leave. T&T also manages lawn care, landscape maintenance, and drainage. That means we see the full picture, if your turf is declining, we can determine whether it’s an irrigation coverage issue, a soil problem, a drainage failure, or a combination. One company, one diagnosis, one solution.
Transparent pricing with no surprises. After we inspect the system, you receive a clear, itemized estimate. We explain what needs repair, what parts are required, and what the labor involves. No vague “service packages” that bundle unnecessary work.
Fast scheduling for urgent repairs. A mainline leak or a stuck valve running overnight can waste thousands of gallons and damage your landscape. T&T prioritizes emergency irrigation repair calls and works to get a technician on-site quickly when the situation demands it.
