Residential Sprinkler Winterization in Omaha
Residential sprinkler winterization clears the water out of your home’s sprinkler lines before the ground freezes, so nothing cracks over the winter. SunCo has served Omaha homeowners since 1991 and is still scheduling winterizations until the first hard freeze (28°F or colder). Starting at $95. Request online or call 402-972-8603.
Our Omaha-based specialists ensure that every drop of water is thoroughly removed from your system, preventing freeze damage and costly repairs. By signing up for our annual winterization, you’ll extend the life of your sprinkler system and ensure it’s ready to go when spring arrives.
Be sure to schedule early, as appointments fill up fast as fall progresses. Don’t wait—get peace of mind before the first freeze hits!
Note: Once you schedule an appointment, get your system ready for service by following the 3 Easy Prep Steps (PDF)

SunCo did a great job initializing the sprinkler for the Spring season. The tech was prompt and very thorough. He even replaced a sprinkler head that was not sprinkling correctly so that the lawn was more evenly watered. I appreciate SunCo's expertise.

We were very impressed with Brian's knowledge of plants and trees. Brian listened to my request of wanting Junipers that were 7'-8' and he delivered with what I asked for. Manny's crew was hard working. I gave 4 stars not 5 because we had to leave for an appointment (unfortunately one that we could not miss) before they were finished planting all of the junipers (8 In total) and the placement of the largest ones were not where I had told them I wanted the most coverage. In time they will grow and have the coverage I wanted but I was hoping for that coverage sooner. With that said we do plan to have Brian work on other projects for us in the spring.

We have been a customer of SunCo for several years now and they always do a great job. We really like that they use a reduced amount of chemicals and more organic products. We decided to try their new C20 soil builder instead of mechanical aeration this year. I had a lot of questions for the tech and he took the time to patiently answer them all. He is a good example of what customer service should be. Thank you!

RJ Is the best at his job and then some!!!! Prior to laying down my most recent lawn fertilizer treatment, he spoke with me about the need to sharpen my mower blade. His advice only cost me $10 to get my blade sharpened at a local shop. This tiny investment has already started to pay off with an even better looking lawn. Thanks…SunCo!!!!

SunCo gave me an estimate and ended up charging me LESS than what they thought. The work was done quickly and tidy - you’d never know they were there. The replaced parts work great.

Wow! Where to start. From beginning to end SunCo is the way to go. I was so nervous how things would go when looking at spending this much money to completely revamp my backyard. It is definitely money well spent and i have no regrets. Manny’s crew came out and cleaned up the back yard. They never stopped, went above and beyond. Everything they dug up for me they got the roots ensuring it could all be replanted. Manny’s crew pays attention to detail, they cleaned up after themselves. They were even thoughtful enough to move the trashcan to make sure it was picked up on trash day. There is simply not enough great words I can say about Manny and his crew. Thank you again for such a job well done. You have more than exceeded my expectations!!

I've got a beautiful green lawn, clean & healthy landscape, and well working sprinkler system from SunCo. Everyone I've met has been exceptionally pleasant, service has been prompt & reasonably priced. But, today as I was struggling with a heavy package delivery, Justin stopped his work to help me with my heavy boxes. He told me how much he liked working for SunCo the last 4 years and that everybody likes it there because the owners genuinely care about providing a good service.

SunCo is the best lawn service company we’ve ever had. They quickly turned the unhealthy lawn from our recently purchased home around. Its wonderful to recieve a call or text from the actual tech when they are on their way to treat. Its funny to watch more and more of our neighbors getting SunCo signs in their yards…people notice a good lawn!

Sprinkler Winterization FAQ
When should I winterize my sprinklers in Omaha?
Before the first hard freeze, when temperatures drop to 28°F or colder (the National Weather Service definition). Water left in the lines can freeze and crack pipes, heads and valves. SunCo schedules winterizations until the first hard freeze, so request yours as soon as you can.
How much does residential sprinkler winterization cost?
SunCo’s sprinkler winterizations start at $95.
What does SunCo’s sprinkler winterization include?
We shut off the water to your sprinkler system, set your controller for winter without erasing its program, clear every zone with compressed air at a safe pressure for your pipes, open any low-point drains and wrap exposed pipes and valves with foam insulation. See the full list of steps.
Is it too late to winterize my sprinklers?
Not if the hard freeze hasn’t arrived yet. If your system hasn’t been winterized, request it today and we’ll get you on the schedule while we’re still running routes.
Do I need to drain my backflow preventer?
You’ll need to drain your backflow preventer yourself. SunCo’s winterization doesn’t include it, and our winterization promise doesn’t cover backflow preventers, so please make sure yours is drained before your service or the first freeze, whichever comes first.
Do you turn sprinklers back on in the spring?
Yes. SunCo also does spring sprinkler activation.
Which areas do you serve?
Omaha, Bellevue, Papillion, La Vista, Elkhorn, Millard, Gretna, Bennington, Ralston, Council Bluffs, Blair, Valley and Waterloo.
How do I schedule?
Fill out the winterization form and choose “Ready now,” or call 402-972-8603.
