About Rolling Hills
Rolling Hills is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Madera County, north of Fresno on State Route 41. It had 793 residents in the 2020 census.
Its water comes from Bakman Water’s Rolling Hills system, which serves about 339 homes and businesses from groundwater wells. A 2022 project added water meters at every property and upgraded mains. Rolling Hills is in ZIP 93636, about 8 miles from our Fresno location.
ZIP: 93636 · Distance: about 8.0 miles from ACRE Fresno, 911 E Lansing Way.
Newly metered water
Before 2022, Rolling Hills properties weren’t metered. Now every gallon is measured, so an irrigation leak or a valve that never fully closes shows up on the bill. If your bill went up after the meters went in, a sprinkler leak is one of the first things to check.
Larger lots mean longer lines and more zones, and older systems tend to fail at valves and fittings first.
Find out if it’s the sprinklers
Turn off every faucet and the controller, then watch the meter. If it still moves, close the irrigation shutoff; if it stops, the leak is on the sprinkler side. We find the zone, then the break. See pipe and leak repair in Madera and valve repair.
Watering rules in Rolling Hills
Rolling Hills is outside the City of Madera, so City of Madera watering rules don’t automatically apply. Your water comes from Bakman Water’s Rolling Hills system; follow its rules for outdoor watering days and hours.
Tell us your days when you book and we will program the controller to match, with shorter soak cycles to keep water out of the gutter.
