Shut the Water Off Right Now: Here’s How

While you wait for us to arrive, stopping the flow is the single most important thing you can do to limit damage to your lawn and your water bill. Follow these steps in order:

Option 1: Shut off at the backflow preventer (fastest)

Your backflow preventer is typically a brass or plastic assembly mounted above ground near your foundation or along the side of your house. It has one or two ball valves with handles. Turn the handle perpendicular to the pipe to close it. This stops all irrigation water immediately.

Option 2: Shut off at the irrigation meter shutoff

Some Denton homes have a dedicated irrigation shutoff valve near the water meter at the curb. It is typically a small rectangular slot that requires a flathead screwdriver or meter key to turn. Closing this valve stops the entire irrigation supply completely without affecting your household water flow.

Option 3: Shut off the main house water (last resort)

If you cannot find either of the above shutoffs, locate your main water shutoff. In most Denton homes, it is inside the garage near the wall facing the street, or in a utility closet. Turning this off stops all water supply to your entire home, including the irrigation.

When Is It a Sprinkler Emergency?

Not every sprinkler problem requires an emergency call. These situations do:

  • A zone is stuck open and running continuously: Every additional hour adds gallons to your bill and saturates your soil
  • Water is visibly gushing or pooling in your yard from underground: Main line break
  • Your irrigation system will not shut off from the controller: Controller failure or failed master valve
  • A pipe has been struck by excavation or landscaping equipment: Immediate structural failure
  • Water is running in your meter when all valves are closed: Active underground leak on a pressurized line

What We Do When We Arrive

We do not guess. When our tech pulls up, the first thing we do is a system diagnostic to confirm the failure point before any work begins.


For a stuck-open zone, we check the solenoid, the diaphragm, and the wiring in that sequence. Most stuck valves are a a solenoid replacement or debris clearing that takes under an hour on site.

For a main line break or active underground leak, we run a pressure isolation test to confirm the failure point. We do not open your yard until we know exactly where to dig. Our underground leak detection process pinpoints the break so the excavation footprint stays small

Once we know what we are dealing with, we give you a quote before any repair work begins. Emergency call or not, there are no surprise invoices from ProFlow.

Shut off the water supply to the irrigation system immediately. Find the backflow preventer on the outside of your home and close the ball valve handle — turn it perpendicular to the pipe. If you cannot locate the backflow preventer, use your home’s main water shutoff. Once the water is off, call (940) 410-0660 for emergency service.

No. A single stuck zone can run 1 to 3 gallons per minute depending on head type and pressure. Over 8 hours, that is 480 to 1,440 gallons of wasted water added to your bill. It also saturates the soil in that zone, which can kill grass roots through oxygen deprivation. Shut it off and call us.

We give you an honest upfront quote before any work begins on every call, emergency or otherwise. The repair cost depends on what needs fixing, not on when you called. We do not charge inflated emergency rates on top of normal repair costs.

This is almost always a mechanical valve failure. When a controller is off or even unplugged, it sends no electrical signal to the solenoids. If a zone is still running with no signal, the physical valve diaphragm is stuck open due to debris or wear. The solenoid is not the problem in this case. The diaphragm needs to be cleared or replaced. Shutting off water at the backflow preventer is the only way to stop the zone until the valve is repaired.
