Not every wet patch is bad drainage. If the spot appears only when a zone runs — or the meter spins with all irrigation off — suspect a buried fitting or cracked lateral.
Clues we look for
- Soft, squishy turf that never dries
- Unusually lush green circle
- Low pressure on several heads in one zone
- Hissing near the curb stop
Targeted digs beat trench warfare
We isolate the zone, follow the wet path, and dig a small hole at the fault. Most residential lateral repairs are couplings or tees — not a full yard rebuild. Read about underground leak repair.
