As temperatures drop, your irrigation system faces the risk of freezing, cracking, and costly damage. At Evergreen Grounds Management, we offer professional irrigation winterization services in Prairieville, LA, ensuring your system is properly drained, shut down, and safeguarded against the cold. Our process prevents costly repairs and extends the life of your system, keeping your landscape healthy year-round.
Without proper winterization, residual water inside pipes and sprinkler heads can freeze, expand, and cause cracks or bursts, leading to expensive repairs. Our winterization service helps:
✔ Prevent Pipe Cracks & Bursts – Expanding ice can rupture pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads.
✔ Avoid Costly Repairs in Spring – Winter damage can require full system replacements if left unprotected.
✔ Maintain System Efficiency – Proper winterization ensures an easy restart in spring.
✔ Protect Your Landscape Investment – Avoid flooding, leaks, and uneven watering due to damaged irrigation lines.
✔ Save Money in the Long Run – Preventative maintenance reduces future repair costs and prolongs system lifespan.
We provide a detailed and effective winterization service to ensure your irrigation system remains in top condition year after year.
We begin by inspecting your irrigation system for:
✅ Leaks or weak spots that could worsen in freezing temperatures.
✅ Malfunctioning valves, pipes, or sprinkler heads.
✅ Signs of water retention that could cause winter damage.
Identifying issues early prevents costly repairs in spring and ensures a smooth reactivation once temperatures rise.
We remove all residual water from the system using industry-best practices, including:
✅ Blowing out water from pipes, sprinkler heads, and valves using specialized air compressors.
✅ Draining backflow preventers, shut-off valves, and risers to protect against ice buildup.
✅ Ensuring complete removal of standing water that could lead to cracks or ruptures.
This step is critical in preventing damage caused by water expansion during freezing conditions.
After clearing the system, we:
✅ Turn off irrigation timers and controllers to prevent unnecessary activation.
✅ Shut down the water supply to irrigation lines to stop refilling.
✅ Secure exposed components to protect them from winter weather.
These adjustments ensure your system stays protected throughout the colder months and is ready for efficient startup in spring.
Winterization is also a great time to assess your irrigation system's performance. Our team provides:
✅ Recommendations for system improvements to enhance efficiency.
✅ Suggestions for upgrades such as smart irrigation controllers for better water management.
✅ Post-winter maintenance tips to ensure a seamless system restart in spring.
✔ Experienced Irrigation Specialists – We have years of experience in irrigation system care and seasonal maintenance.
✔ Thorough, Preventative Protection – We go beyond simple water drainage, ensuring every component is protected from freezing temperatures.
✔ Advanced Equipment & Techniques – We use professional-grade air compressors and precise winterization methods for maximum effectiveness.
✔ Custom Solutions for Every Landscape – Whether you have a residential yard or a commercial property, we tailor our approach to fit your irrigation system’s needs.
✔ Cost-Effective Maintenance Plans – Investing in annual winterization saves thousands in repair costs due to freeze damage.

We recommend winterizing your system before the first hard freeze, typically in late fall (October-November).
Without winterization, water left in pipes can freeze, expand, and crack, leading to broken pipes, damaged valves, and costly repairs.
Most irrigation winterization services take 1-2 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the system.
No! Proper winterization makes spring startup much easier. We ensure all settings, valves, and water flow are optimized for a smooth reactivation.
While DIY methods exist, improper drainage can lead to undetected water retention, freezing, and damage. Professional winterization is the best option to ensure thorough water removal and complete system protection.
