268th Street North Ozona Walkways

Walkways on 268th Street North in Ozona need an irrigation sleeve before the path is paved, or the first zone repair cuts the field. Older Ozona laterals often cross the only dry path to the door.

The cut that ruins a new walk

A sleeve is a short pipe under the walk, capped on both ends, set before the base is closed. Without it, the irrigation tech saws the pavers the first time a head or a valve fails.

• Sleeve placed while the base is open

• Both ends marked so the next repair does not guess

• Pitch off the house, not toward the slab

• A rigid edge so the mailbox run does not creep

Joint sand and daily traffic

The walk to the box takes foot traffic, a bin wheel, and roof splash. Polymeric sand on a wet or dirty joint just crusts. We lock the joints after the field is clean and dry.
