Sprinkler Systems

When you work hard all day and spend hours on the California highways, you don’t have the time, energy or desire to water your lawn. Sometimes, there is too much rain; other times, there isn’t enough rain. Before you know it, you have brown spots. Perhaps, your sprinkler system is old and needs replacing.

On the weekends, you just want to sit back and enjoy your beautiful garden, lawn and outdoor environment with family and friends. You might want to drink and eat while listening to your favorite sports team on the radio. You don’t want to spend hours dragging your garden hose around watering your flowers, bushes and trees. You aren’t an expert at lawn care. With a well-timed sprinkler, you can enjoy your leisure time while ensuring you have a great garden, outdoors and landscaping.

There are many different sprinkler systems available: impact, oscillating and underground. Homeowners with delicate flowers prefer small drip emitters. A permanent sprinkler system can give you a great environment. Retractable heads protect the sprinklers during mowing and maintenance. Get rid of brown grass, weeds and dead patches with a new sprinkler system installed by Ritz.

Clean, Cool and Refreshing Pool

Nothing demonstrates class, sophistication and success more than a nice, clean, cool and refreshing swimming location to entertain with friends, family or business partners. California has a hot climate where children, family and friends want to cool down, get exercise and relax in a water wonderland. Make your home the center of attention with a great water recreational environment.

Water distribution systems have two primary purposes: 1) bringing in clean water and 2) removing dirty water. Ritz can help install, improve or upgrade your water falls, fountains and ponds. A great water ecosystem is a great conversational point.

There is a lot of work involved in cleaning out the leaves, garbage and debris that accumulate over time in your water. A well-functioning water system will help remove the dirty water and replace it with clean water. Have the best swimming environment on your block.

Improved Drainage

Water naturally flows down hills, but not every Californian home is located on the top of a hill. Some newer houses are more likely to experience flooded basements due to being located near swamps. Nothing is worse than having all of your pictures, books and furniture destroyed by flooding. The mold can grow in your walls and lead to breathing problems.

When you invest time, energy and money into a great property, it only makes sense to have high-quality draining. Our plumbers can help drain rain and flood water away from your home to protect your foundation.

Water drains differently on clay or sandy soil. During heavy rains a collection of water can lead to serious land slides. Our plumber professionals will help regrade your soil to prevent water from damaging your property.

Sprinklers

Review of Ritz Plumbing
img3 img3 img3 img3 Overall Experience 4/5

Customer Symptoms:

A homeowner contacted us to report that he accidentally hit a garden sprinkler pipe while digging in his garden bed. The homeowner tried to tape the hole he had made, but the leak was persistent, and the water pressure was greatly reduced across the sprinkler system.

Issue:

Our technician arrived at the home and took a look at the garden sprinkler system. The hole was still open, and the damaged sprinkler pipe was clearly visible. The technician turned on the system to check for any other leaks in the area and confirmed that the damaged pipe would have to be replaced.

Resolution:

After letting the homeowner know, the technician used a trowel to dig up and expose more sections of the piping in order to fit in the slip coupling. He then sawed off about 10cm of the pipe and placed a band clamp on each end of the piping system. He then inserted the slip coupling and secured the clamps to put the pipe in place. The technician also put a magnetic warning tape above the area to prevent someone from hitting the sprinkler pipe again. The homeowner turned the system back on, and water pressure was back to normal.

Pools & Fountains

Customer Symptoms:

We received a call from a homeowner who had recently purchased her first home with a pool. She was unsure whether bubbles in the line were normal as she had never had to maintain a pool in the past.

Issue:

Our technician knew that bubbles could be indicative of any number of causes. Low water levels can cause bubbles as well as leaks in the strainer lid or pump seals.

Resolution:

Before the technician even began to check for leaks, he walked around the homeowner’s pool and noticed that the pool had a line around the inside, roughly 12 inches from the top, that was to indicate water level. However, the water in the pool was roughly four inches below the line. The technician believed that the skimmer was not pulling enough water into the pipe; instead, it was getting air from the level where the water should have been. After filling the pool to the proper water level, the technician determined that the return lines no longer bubbled.

Customer Symptoms:

A homeowner contacted us after installing a water garden on her property. She noticed that the water was not circulating and that bacteria was beginning to grow.

Issue:

The technician met with the homeowner and surveyed her outdoor garden. Before beginning the job, he made sure that the pump and attachments were functioning properly.

Resolution:

After testing the electricity to the pump, he noticed a significant amount of leaves and debris at the bottom of the water garden. While the pump was continuing to run, he believed that it may have gotten clogged with leaves so that the water was unable to circulate. The technician shut off the pump, took it out of the water, removed the cover and confirmed that it was backed up. He picked out the small leaves, replaced the cover and set the pump back in the water before restoring power to the unit. He remained at the residence to ensure that the water would continue to circulate correctly without further complications.

Customer Symptoms:

A customer contacted us to report that he was noticing bubbles coming out of his return lines into the pool. He had never seen this issue before and was unsure of the cause.

Issue:

We met with the client and determined that there was a leak in the filtration system. However, we had to know if this was due to low water levels or leaks in the pump seals, unions or around the strainer lid.

Resolution:

After surveying the situation and determining that the seals and strainer lid were functioning properly, our technician noticed that the water level of the pool was relatively low. The client’s pool had a mark around the side that indicated where the water should be; typically, the level should be at least half of the distance up the skimmer intake. If it is lower, the skimmer is more than likely sucking air into the pipe leading to the pump. We advised the client to fill the pool to the halfway mark to correct the problem.

Customer Symptoms:

We received a call from a client who was concerned about the excessive amount of water that was accumulating in her garden. She was very distraught because she felt like there was nothing she could do to help the problem.

Issue:

We met the customer at her home, a simple cottage that happened to sit at the bottom of the hill. Our technician could tell right away that the excess water was due to a recent rainfall that had run downhill and pooled in her garden.

Resolution:

Had the amount of water been small, the technician may have attempted to eliminate it completely. However, the technician noticed that while he could remove the water today, another rainfall would leave the client in a similar situation. Fortunately, he discussed with her ways that she could harness this extra water by planting water-loving flowers or by building a boardwalk or raised path through the garden. The technician explained that he would be able to create a pond in the wet area and sculpt the land to harness the continuous supply of water by installing a network of drains, pipes and pumps to ensure a constant and even flow of water -- an idea to which the client enthusiastically agreed. The technician was then able to treat this meeting as a consultative call and scheduled another appointment to complete the pond.
