Mark Buried Denver Irrigation Repairs Before the Beds Grow Back Over Them
Once mulch and sod cover the trench, the next leak hunt starts from memory. Photos and a zone note beat that.
Photograph the open trench before the bed closes
Once mulch and sod cover a Denver repair, the next leak hunt starts from memory. Photograph fittings, pipe size, valve location, and a wide shot of the bed before backfill. NationScapes keeps that with the zone note so the next repair does not start at zero.
Write the cause, not only that it was fixed
A rock cut, a failed fitting, and a freeze split are different next winters. Note nearby utilities and whether the same run has failed before. If the landscape will be rebuilt, mark the line before plants go back in. New layout work belongs under installation.
What to keep with the house
Stills of the open work, zone number, and a simple sketch. Put it with the contact file, not only in a text thread. Blowout photos in fall help the same way. See blowout.
Mark buried Denver irrigation repairs before the beds grow back over them. The next leak is cheaper when the last repair is on paper.
