Irrigation rust in Palm Harbor
Palm Harbor is an unincorporated community in North Pinellas, home to Innisbrook Resort and a mix of established subdivisions, golf communities and condos, with the historic districts of Ozona and Crystal Beach along the water.
Unincorporated North Pinellas above Curlew Road, which takes in much of Palm Harbor, gets reclaimed water from Pinellas County Utilities. Homes on that system rarely see iron stains. Older properties in Ozona, Crystal Beach and elsewhere that still irrigate from a private well are where the orange shows up, and we'll test yours to see which it is.

What our customers say
[Rust Busters was] a lifesaver!! I did a big landscaping project for my animal hospital and the irrigation that was installed caused iron staining all over my property. Luckily, [they were] able to remove all the staining and install a system into my well so the iron could be contained, preventing any future staining! [They were] very professional … and incredibly kind to my entire staff. Would highly recommend working with this company!!! They also have great, affordable pricing.
I have had the opportunity to work with [Rust Busters] and collaborate with [them] on many projects. Friendly, courteous, and dependable. So much of Florida water has a rust problem coming through irrigation systems that creates an eyesore for the owner. After installing new paver driveways for people, no one wants to see rust on their pavers and so we refer [Rust Busters].
[Rust Busters was] very accommodating. The service and [their] workmanship is a 5 star. I highly recommend [them].

Questions
Palm Harbor irrigation rust questions
Does Palm Harbor's reclaimed water cause rust stains?
Iron staining is tied to well water, not reclaimed water. If your home is on reclaimed and still stains, we'll test the water to find the source.
Do you work with condo and golf communities in Palm Harbor?
Yes. We handle shared sidewalks, curbs, entrances and building walls, and set up prevention with monthly refills where the irrigation comes from a well.
Do you remove irrigation rust in Palm Harbor?
Yes. Palm Harbor is in our Tampa Bay service area. We remove rust from driveways, walks, pavers, fences, walls and signs, and install prevention systems on properties that irrigate from iron-rich wells.
