Flores Lawn Sprinklers files its address as 8102 13th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11228. The block runs through the Dyker Heights commercial spine between 81st and 82nd Streets, in a neighborhood whose single-family and two-family detached housing stock supports a steady sprinkler-repair and winterization caseload. Dyker Heights and the adjacent stretches of Bensonhurst and Bay Ridge produce more in-ground lawn irrigation than any other corner of South Brooklyn outside Manhattan Beach.
The Dyker Heights lawn pattern
Single-family homes in this corridor typically sit on 40-by-100 foot lots with a front lawn, a side yard, and a small rear yard. The recurring sprinkler layout is 4 to 6 zones: front lawn rotor heads, side-yard rotors or mist nozzles, rear-yard rotors, and occasionally a foundation-planting drip zone. The zone count is smaller than a Nassau quarter-acre install but the heads are often more closely spaced because of the narrower lot lines.
Repair work versus install work
A neighborhood sprinkler crew in this corridor handles three recurring repair scopes: replacing rotor heads damaged by lawn mowers, replacing valve diaphragms in zones that won’t shut off, and fixing PVC mainline cracks that develop after a missed winterization. The replacement parts are standard (Rain Bird, Hunter, Toro) and stocked on the truck. Repair calls usually complete in a single visit.
The cultural-calendar overlay
Dyker Heights has a famous Christmas-lights tradition that draws crowds to side streets between 11th and 13th Avenues every December. Property owners who participate often run lawn sprinklers up until the first hard freeze, then winterize late in November or early December to keep grass green during the lights season. Local crews coordinate the winterization window around this calendar, which is unusual to other Brooklyn neighborhoods.
Calling: scheduling and pricing
The listed number is +1 917-439-2959. For a Dyker Heights homeowner the first call usually covers the property address, the system age, and whether the call is for routine seasonal service or for a specific repair. Most neighborhood crews quote winterization on a per-zone basis; repair visits are usually quoted after the diagnostic.
Getting to 8102 13th Avenue
The address is a 6-minute walk from the 79th Street D train and about 10 minutes from the 18th Avenue D. Drivers use the Gowanus Expressway exits to 8th Avenue or the Belt Parkway Exit 1 (4th Avenue). 13th Avenue at this point has metered street parking; the side blocks south of 80th are easier in the evening.
