When a valve sticks open, a zone runs forever and your water bill climbs. When a valve won’t open, one slice of the yard turns brown. We open the valve box, test solenoids, and repair or replace residential valves.
Most Houston residential boxes sit under turf near the street or side yard. We dig carefully, keep soil contained, and reseat the lid so mowers don’t destroy it next week.

Houston-specific notes
Ants, mud, and heat cook valve boxes across Harris and Fort Bend. We clean debris and recommend raised lids when boxes sit in flood-prone low spots.

Valve Repair FAQs
Is a stuck-on zone always the valve?
Usually the valve or solenoid — but debris in the diaphragm or a wiring short can look the same. We diagnose before replacing parts.
