What people ask Revive Irrigation Services, answered straight.

Call Revive Irrigation Services at (509) 986-4262. Owners Brad Bartlett and Joe Coutu each have more than 20 years on Spokane sprinkler systems, the business holds a 5.0 rating from 56 Google reviews (as of October 22, 2026), and it was a Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave in 2023. A technician finds the problem and fixes it, most often the same visit.

Yes. Older and oddly built systems are a big part of what Revive does. Brad and Joe each have more than 20 years on Spokane systems, and reviewers mention old systems they "always figure out and fix", hidden valve boxes found in minutes, and a poorly installed system upgraded with good coverage and zoning.

One to three working days for most Spokane homes. Larger or trickier lots can stretch to four or five days. The best time to install is between spring and fall when the ground is workable; on a rebuild, irrigation goes in after grading and before sod, seed or planting.

For a new system or an addition, we walk the yard with you, talk about how you use it now and later, and lay out zones. You get a written estimate at no charge. Repairs and startups work differently: they are billed by the service call. The technician gives you a good estimate, and the final cost depends on what the job turns up.

Revive Irrigation Services is owned by Brad Bartlett and Joe Coutu. Each has more than 20 years on Spokane sprinkler systems, and they worked together for about 15 years at another Spokane irrigation company before starting Revive in 2023.

Yes. For homes affected by the Spokane Complex fires, Revive inspects the system, pressure tests what is testable, and writes a line-item estimate for your insurance adjuster at no charge, with no obligation to use us for the work. Ask about discounts for first responders and fire victims when you call.

As of 2026, most residential sprinkler blowouts in the Spokane area run about $75 to $150, depending on how many zones you have. A 4-zone system sits at the low end and a 10-zone corner lot at the high end. Large lots, drip zones and commercial properties cost more. Book with Revive at (509) 986-4262 before the mid-October freeze.

A standard residential spring startup with Revive runs $85 to $175 as of 2026, depending on system size, age and how many heads or zones need adjustment. Repairs found during the startup are billed separately.

Most residential sprinkler installations in Spokane run $3,500 to $7,500 as of 2026. Front-yard-only systems can start near $2,500, while larger properties with many zones, rocky soil or full-yard coverage often land between $7,500 and $12,000. Revive gives free estimates on new systems and additions.

A zone that keeps running or seeping after the controller turns it off almost always has a valve problem: a torn diaphragm, debris stuck in the valve seat, or a failed solenoid. Close the main irrigation shutoff to stop the water, then call (509) 986-4262. In the Spokane area a leaking zone valve repair typically runs $100 to $250 as of 2026.

Start with the controller, its power supply and the main water valve. When the whole system is dead, the cause is usually power, the controller program, or a closed main valve. When just one zone is dead, it is almost always that zone's valve, solenoid or wire. If those checks don't find it, call (509) 986-4262 and a technician will trace it.

Aim for October 1 to 15. Light frost can show up in Spokane as early as late September, and the first hard freeze, the kind that cracks pipe and backflow brass, typically arrives by mid-October. Booking in September gets you your pick of dates.

Usually not. The crew needs access to the irrigation shutoff, the backflow assembly and the controller, plus unlocked gates. If the controller is inside the house or garage, let the office know when you book so we can plan for it.

Most years the safe window for a spring startup in Spokane runs from about April 15 to May 15, after the last hard freeze. If snow is still on the ground or overnight lows are dipping below 28 degrees, wait. Open the main valve slowly, over 30 to 60 seconds, to avoid water hammer.

Yes, if your sprinkler system connects to a public water supply. Washington requires the backflow prevention assembly to be tested at least once every 12 months by a state-certified Backflow Assembly Tester, with results filed with your water purveyor. A residential test in the Spokane area typically runs $60 to $120 per assembly as of 2026.
