Protect Your Lawn Sprinkler System This Winter – Avoid Costly Repairs in the Spring

When temperatures drop in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C., your underground lawn sprinkler system is at risk of frozen pipes, cracked valves, and costly repairs. TLC Incorporated has been winterizing sprinkler systems for homeowners in the DMV area for over 40 years. Our trained technicians use professional equipment—not shop vacs or pickup-truck “blow-outs”—to properly prepare your system for freezing weather.

 

Why Winterization Matters

  • Prevent Damage – Frozen water expands and can crack pipes, heads, valves, and your backflow preventer.
  • Save Money – Avoid $1,000+ spring repair bills from improper or neglected winterization.
  • Extend System Life – A properly maintained system lasts longer and works better.
  • Peace of Mind – Licensed, insured, and backed by TLC’s 7-year warranty.

Beware of the $75 Guy

Every fall, ads pop up for “$75 cash” sprinkler blowouts. These are often unlicensed trunk-slammers with no warranty, no insurance, and no guarantee. Homeowners think they’ve saved money, but by springtime many face $1,000+ in repairs—and can’t even reach the guy who did it. With TLC, you get professional service, accountability, and peace of mind.

TLC Winterization Service Includes:

  • Shut-down of water supply
  • Professional air-compression of all lines, zones & heads
  • Protection of valves & backflow preventers
  • System inspection & recommendations for spring start-up
  • Priority scheduling for spring start-ups (when you winterize with us)

FAQ: TLC Winterization

  • When should I winterize my sprinkler system?

    In the DMV area, winterization should be done between late September and mid-November, before freezing temps set in.

  • How long does the service take?

    Typically 20–40 minutes, depending on your system.

  • Do you warranty your work?

    Yes—TLC provides a 7-year warranty on all sprinkler services.

  • Can I do this myself with a shop vac or air compressor?

    No. Home compressors don’t generate the proper CFM, and you risk damaging the system—or worse, leaving water behind to freeze.
