Blank screen? Zones that skip or run at 2 p.m.? A timer that forgot its schedule? We repair, replace and program controllers to suit your yard.
Wondering what controller and smart timer repair costs?
Fast, easy estimate
Look for a dead or flashing display, zones that don't run or run at odd times, or a schedule that keeps resetting.
Yes. We look at your controller and smart timer repair problem and explain the fix and what it involves before you decide.
We work in Midland, Greenwood, Stanton and nearby Midland County. Call or send the form and we'll get back to you to schedule.
Midland's weather swings a lot. A schedule that suits August will drown the lawn in October, and the same schedule can run during a freeze if no sensor is there to stop it. Controllers on exterior walls also take direct sun and dust, and the heat can shorten the life of the electronics.
Water rules add a second layer. The City of Midland has assigned watering days by address, and the details can change with drought conditions. A controller still set to run every night may be breaking the rules without anyone noticing, so we make a habit of checking what the timer is actually doing.
Texas requires irrigation work to be performed by or under a TCEQ-licensed irrigator.
A dead screen can be a power issue, a failed transformer or a damaged board, and the cause isn't always the controller itself.
A zone that sometimes runs and sometimes doesn't can point to a loose wire, a failing valve or a programming problem.
A clock that lost power resets to the wrong hour, so zones can start in the heat of the afternoon.
A weak backup battery, or a power flicker, can wipe your programming.
A stuck rain or freeze sensor can keep a good system off for weeks.
A Wi-Fi controller that keeps dropping offline may need relocating or reconfiguring.
We confirm the controller is getting power and that the display and buttons respond.
We run the zones from the controller to see whether the signal reaches the valves.
Simple faults get fixed. A controller that's worn out gets replaced with a model sized to your zones.
We set a schedule that fits your yard and the current city rules, and show you how to change it.
A timer with a simple fault is worth repairing. One with a failed board and a decade of use is often better replaced. A smart controller can adjust watering to weather, which is useful where the temperature swings so much, but it still needs sound valves and wiring behind it.
If you're unsure about your current schedule, take a photo of the controller's screen and the dial position. It helps us see what it's been doing.
A good schedule isn't the same all year. Lawns need more water in July than in March, and shrubs and drip beds follow their own rhythm. We'll talk through how you'd like each zone watered and set the runs and start times to suit, within the city's rules.
If you're curious about a smart controller, we can go through what it would change for your yard. It's a useful tool, and for some systems a standard timer is all that's needed. We'll tell you which we think suits yours.

No. A standard timer works if it's programmed well. A smart controller can help by adjusting to weather, but it isn't a fix for broken valves or leaks.
Yes. We program it to the schedule the city currently publishes and can change it if the rules change.
It pauses watering when it's wet or near freezing, so water isn't wasted or frozen on the lawn. We can check yours still works.
Yes. We'll look at what the controller is doing and explain whether it's repair or replacement.
