Sometimes it seems that during my 'home improvement' projects, I break more than I fix. Nothing says 'fun' quite like that drip irrigation system that leaks. And leaks... Fortunately, there are places like Sprinkler World to help me undo the damage I cause.
Typically I bring in a sample of what needs to be replaced (irrigation tubing, parts for outdoor lighting, etc.) and the knowledgeable staff easily matches the size/type with what I need. They will also test parts to see if they can be repaired. When I brought in my broken irrigation timer, I learned I could just purchase one component, rather than replacing the whole unit. Nice!
Helpful advice = happy me. I will be back as soon as I break something else.
