Houston Metro

Houston irrigation, as it actually fails

Houston systems fail on Beaumont clay and coastal prairie, not on DFW freeze. Memorial, the Energy Corridor, Garden Oaks, and West University sit on soil that holds a leak until the meter has already spun, then cracks in August. Live oak roots lift laterals under slabs. Houston Public Works watering windows are the clock — not a controller default from Plano.

The job we see inside the Loop is an older lateral under a sidewalk or a diaphragm that weeps all night with no wet spot on gumbo. We isolate zones and watch the meter before we trench Meyerland. Humidity grows fungus when a zone overwaters St. Augustine in shade. Freeze prep here is a backflow cover, not a Colorado blow-out. Nearby stops: Katy, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Spring.

Cycle-and-soak on Houston clay. One long rotor run sheets off and still leaves the far head hungry. After a repair we set a starting program against Houston Public Works windows and leave seasonal adjust with you.

Neighborhoods: Memorial, Energy Corridor, Garden Oaks, Meyerland, Clear Lake, West University. Water: Houston Public Works. Ground: Beaumont clay and coastal prairie soils that hold water then crack. Climate: rare hard freeze, brutal humidity.
