Irrigation Repair in Wilmington, NC
From Leland, Wilmington is a 10-to-15-minute drive north via US-17 across the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge, or through the MLK Jr. Parkway corridor depending on which part of the city the job is in.
We repair existing irrigation systems: broken heads, leaking zones, controller failures, and coverage gaps that are killing turf or running up water bills. We diagnose first, quote the repair, and fix it — we don't replace systems that need a forty-dollar part. Clients on annual maintenance agreements get irrigation checks folded into scheduled visits so problems get caught before they do damage.
About Wilmington
Wilmington sits just across the Cape Fear River from Leland, and that short bridge crossing puts Salty Dog within easy reach of a city with two very different faces: the older residential streets of Forest Hills and Sunset Park, and the fast-growing HOA and apartment corridors along Porters Neck Road and the College Road spine. Market Street and Carolina Beach Road each carry their own mix of commercial and residential properties, and the flat coastal terrain means drainage and turf problems here look a lot like they do in Brunswick County -- compacted soils, subdivisions where builder-grade sod never got proper follow-up, and stormwater ponds required in nearly every development built in the last 30 years. Salty Dog's full service range runs across county lines without a gap.

Everything we do in Wilmington →Common questions
Do you service Wilmington even though you're based in Leland?
Yes. Wilmington is a primary service area -- the drive across the Cape Fear is short, and the team works regularly in New Hanover County on both residential and commercial accounts.
How do I know if my irrigation system has a problem?
For Wilmington customers: the water bill is often the first sign. Others are a zone that never builds full pressure, a soggy spot that stays wet between cycles, one area browning out while the rest of the yard looks fine, or a head throwing water across the driveway instead of the turf. Sandy soil takes a slow leak underground, so what shows on the surface can be smaller than what is happening below it. Call the office at (919) 637-1803 and describe what the system is doing.
