Smart sprinkler systems, drip irrigation, pump installs and drainage that protects your yard.
Irrigation in Wimberley has to work with the ground, not against it. Out here the topsoil over the cedar and limestone can run just a few inches deep before you hit rock, which means water either soaks in fast during that shallow window or runs straight off the hillside toward the creek. We design systems that put water where roots actually are instead of watching it sheet off toward Cypress Creek.
In Woodcreek and around Blue Hole, we see a lot of oak and cedar cover shading part of the yard while the rest bakes in full Hill Country sun, so a single zone rarely does the job right. We split systems by sun exposure and soil depth, add drip lines for beds tucked against limestone outcrops, and route drainage away from foundations before a summer gully-washer turns a driveway into a creek bed. Riverfront and well-fed properties get pump setups sized for what their water source can actually deliver.
Corral Bros is a family-run crew that shows up when we say we will and explains what's under your yard before we start cutting trenches. We handle the design, the install, and the repair calls that come later, and estimates are free with no pressure attached.

The fastest ways to cut your watering bill are a properly zoned sprinkler system, drip irrigation in beds, a smart controller with a rain sensor, and grouping plants by water need. Drip can use far less water than spray, and fixing leaks and overspray often pays for itself within a season.
Common signs of a sprinkler leak are a sudden jump in your water bill, soggy or eroding spots, unusually green patches, low pressure, or heads that weep when the system is off. Corral Bros runs a full system audit to find leaks, broken heads and dead zones, then quotes the repair.
Shallow soil over limestone means water can't spread laterally the way it does in deeper dirt, so standard spray heads leave gaps near outcrops. We usually convert those spots to drip or low-flow rotors that apply water slowly enough to soak in before it runs off. Corral Bros checks head spacing and soil depth together during every Wimberley audit.
Cost depends on lot size, how much rock we hit digging trenches, and whether you need a full system or targeted repairs. We do not quote prices sight unseen because Hays County terrain varies so much block to block. Corral Bros offers a free on-site estimate, usually scheduled within 48 hours, so you get real numbers for your property.
If your lot slopes toward the creek or you've noticed water pooling near the foundation after storms, yes, a French drain can carry that runoff somewhere it won't cause damage. Creekside soil sheds water fast once it's saturated. Corral Bros maps the flow path on-site before recommending drain placement rather than guessing from a satellite photo.
Yes. A smart controller with a rain sensor holds off watering after storms and adjusts run times so shallow soil isn't overwatered into runoff. In Wimberley that matters because the ground can't absorb much before it either drains straight down through cracks in the limestone or sheets off. Corral Bros programs each controller to match your specific zones.
It can if the pump and zones aren't sized to your well's actual output. We test flow and pressure before designing anything, then build zones that stay within what the well can sustain without dropping pressure elsewhere in the house. Corral Bros handles pump systems for wells and riverfront properties throughout the Wimberley area.
We recommend a seasonal tune-up, especially before summer, since cedar root intrusion and shifting rock can knock heads out of alignment or crack lines underground. Catching a broken line early saves water and your yard. Corral Bros offers straightforward audits and repair visits for Wimberley homeowners on that kind of schedule.
