Move it into the rain. A dry sensor is why the well runs all night.
Rain Sensor Repair in Dobbin is a local job: the grass, the clay, and the houses on those streets decide the repair. Dobbin is rural and west. A city-pressure layout will not run on these wells.
West of Montgomery. Cross street. Nearby landmarks: Dobbin.
Rain Sensor Repair in Dobbin
Willis rain falls through the pines and misses a sensor tucked under a deep eave. The clock waters a yard that is already dripping.
We move the sensor into the rain and prove the stations stop. On a well we also prove the pump start stops. A sensor that only opens the valve circuit still lets some pump relays run.
Pine pollen packs the disks. Cleaning is part of the repair, not an extra speech.
Grass, soil, and housing on this side of town
Grass. Bermuda and shade St. Augustine wants a deep soak. Bermuda forgives a miss for a day. Mixing them on one valve is how one strip stays swampy and the other crunches.
Soil. Sandy soils, rural wells Willis pine straw packs screens, and sandy trenches will not hold a wide hole. Sun and shade on one valve is the other half of the call.
Housing. Dobbin rural lots west of Montgomery Typical irrigation failures here: wells, long pipe, shop timers
Move it into the rain. A dry sensor is why the well runs all night.
How a visit works
- Walk the yard We run every zone in Willis. A dry strip, a mist, and a head that never comes up are three different repairs.
- Find the fault Heads, valves, underground pipe, and the low-voltage wire. Willis sand over clay, with pine straw that packs a nozzle solid.
- Repair We replace the part that failed. Spray heads stay with spray heads. Rotors stay with rotors.
- Set the timer Night watering, rest between cycles, rain sensor on. Noon misting is not a program.

Keep reading (different streets, different repairs)
- One Willis station and a yard half brown — The green half is the control. One station is a head, a valve, or a break in the sand.
- A Montgomery fitting that pulled apart — Slope and a shallow trench pull fittings. We cut back to sound pipe and test.
- Pine straw is why the Willis head will not throw — Pull the nozzle and flush. Straw packs a screen until it looks like a dead pump.
- Sand in a Willis valve box — Sand on the diaphragm holds the valve open. We clean the box and rebuild the valve.
- Montgomery stations that should not share a runtime — The uphill strip and the low walk are different zones even when someone wired them together.
