Introduction to Repair Services
At Rich Moseley Irrigation Inc, we understand that irrigation problems can quickly escalate from a minor inconvenience to a costly repair if not addressed promptly. Serving Pinellas Park since 1980, our repair services cover everything from broken sprinkler heads and valve failures to buried pipe leaks and pump malfunctions. We prioritize fast diagnosis, efficient repair techniques, and durable fixes that restore system reliability with minimal disruption.
Why Prompt Sprinkler and Irrigation Repairs Matter
Neglected irrigation issues waste water, weaken plant health, and can damage property when leaks saturate soil around foundations or hardscapes. Quick, professional repairs prevent escalating water costs and maintain the aesthetic and functional value of your landscape. Our goal is to diagnose root causes and implement repairs that last rather than temporary fixes that require repeated callbacks.
Key Benefits of Professional Repair Services
Rapid leak detection to stop wasted water and possible landscape damage.
Expert diagnostics to identify electrical, hydraulic, or mechanical failures.
Durable repairs using industry-standard parts suited for Florida environments.
Minimized downtime so your landscape receives consistent irrigation.
Guidance on preventive measures to reduce future repair frequency.
Common Repair Types We Handle
01.
Broken or Damaged Heads and Nozzles
Irrigation heads are vulnerable to lawn equipment, UV exposure, and impact. We replace broken heads, swap nozzles for correct precipitation rates, and adjust head heights and angles for uniform coverage.
02.
Valve and Solenoid Repairs
Faulty valves may fail to open, remain stuck open, or leak. We test valve bodies, solenoids, diaphragms, and actuators to determine whether repair or replacement is appropriate.
03.
Electrical Troubleshooting and Wire Repairs
Controllers and solenoids rely on wiring to operate. Shorts, rodents, or corrosion can interrupt signals. Our technicians test wiring, repair splices, and ensure controllers communicate properly with valves.
04.
Leak Detection and Mainline Repairs
Underground leaks can be detected using specialized equipment to locate the source without unnecessary excavation. We repair or replace affected pipe sections and ensure proper backfill and restoration.
05.
Controller Failures and Programming Errors
Controllers may fail due to lightning strikes, age, or internal faults. We repair or replace controllers and restore programming, including smart controller recommissioning and integration.
06.
Pump & Well Repairs (including emergency repairs)
Pump failures can render an irrigation system inoperative. We diagnose pump problems, repair or replace components, and coordinate pump removal/installation when required.
07.
Backflow and Pressure Issues
Backflow prevention devices require periodic testing and maintenance. Pressure irregularities may cause misting, poor coverage, or component failure; we repair or install pressure regulation equipment as needed.

Common Repair Scenarios and Solutions
Constantly running zone
Likely a stuck valve diaphragm or solenoid; we replace the defective valve components.
Low spray distance
Check for clogged nozzles, low pressure due to leaks, or pump issue; perform cleaning and pressure testing.
Controller not communicating
Test controller output, replace if necessary, and check for lightning damage or corrosion.
Buried line leak
Locate leak non-invasively and replace affected line sections with proper bed preparation.
Water pooling near foundation
Locate source (sprinkler leak vs. irrigation runoff) and repair lateral lines or adjust zone programming to prevent overwatering.
Emergency Repair Services
Storms, accidents, or sudden component failures require rapid response. We maintain availability for urgent issues that threaten landscape health or property safety. For emergency repairs, call (727) 439-0792 and we will prioritize your service call.
