Moving a sprinkler head 2–4 feet requires cutting the existing drip tube and adding a coupler — no digging up the whole line. Here's the simple repair using 1/2" irrigation tubing and barb fittings.

MOVING THE HEAD:
1. Dig up around the existing head — just 12" in each direction
2. Unscrew the head from the riser
3. Cut the supply tube at the head location
4. Install a coupler barb and run new tubing to the new location
5. Install a new riser and head at the new position
6. Test the zone and adjust head position/arc
PRO TIP: Use funny pipe (flexible riser tube) between the supply line and the head — it absorbs lawn movement and prevents cracking at the head connection.
