Lawn Sprinkler Repair Versus New Installation: Some Things to Consider

Lawn Sprinkler Repair Versus New Installation: Some Things to Consider

In the spring and summer, you and your family enjoy afternoons and evenings outdoors, spending time playing in the yard and feeling the soft grass beneath your feet. Your lush, green grass comes from water. In some cases, the water source is heavy spring shower, but many times, it is your home’s sprinkler system that gets the water where it’s needed. If you’ve been told that you need lawn sprinkler repair, you might be wondering if you should have the repairs down or install a new system. Here are some things to consider.

The Age of Your Sprinkler System

Your lawn sprinklers cost a lot of money to install, and you expect them to last for a long time. However, if you’re dealing with an older model, you might consider replacing instead of repairing. This will allow you to benefit from advancements in sprinkler systems to save you money on utilities and other perks. When your sprinkler is relatively new, repairing it is probably best.

The Cost of Repairs

In many cases, you’ll find that your needed repairs are simply small parts that have worn out over time. If you need a repair less than $50, you probably won’t even consider replacing the system. However, if you need major repairs that cost a high percentage of what a new system costs, you should probably replace your sprinkler.

The Resale Value of Your Home

If you go to sell your home, your real estate agent will look for things to help raise the asking price. A functioning lawn sprinkler is one of those items. Ensuring that the system is in good working order is essential. A new sprinkler system can raise the value even more than repairing an older model.

At American Irrigation, we can repair or install a new system. If you have questions or need help making a decision, contact us today.
