Spring sprinkler startup in Bozeman, MT
After a Bozeman winter, your sprinkler system needs to come back online carefully.
Pipes, fittings, valves, and sprinkler heads can shift, crack, clog, or fail after months of freezing temperatures. A careful spring startup catches small problems early, before they turn into broken lines, wasted water, or dead spots in the lawn.
Deeper Roots handles spring startups for homes, pastures, and commercial properties across Bozeman and the greater Gallatin Valley. With over 25 years in the valley, we know the common failure points and what to look for when a system wakes up for the season.
Our startup service turns water back on at the source, checks each zone for function and coverage, sets your watering schedules for the season, and identifies and addresses any leaks, breaks, or fixes the system needs. If we find something that calls for a larger repair, we'll explain what's going on and what it will take before we move forward.
When startups begin
Startups typically begin in May, depending on weather and ground conditions. Turning a system on too early, before the risk of a hard freeze has passed, can undo the protection your blowout provided, so we time startups to the season rather than the calendar.
If you're a past customer, you're already on our seasonal maintenance list, and we'll call you to schedule.
