Evaluate whether this issue is a safe weekend fix or requires specialized equipment and licensing.
Zero-cost steps you can perform safely today

Dig a small hole around the head to check for underground leaks at the connection
Replace the internal assembly while keeping the outer body in the ground
Do not delay if you observe these danger triggers
"If a head "weeps" even when the system is off, it's almost always a valve problem (Low Head Drainage or a faulty diaphragm). If it only leaks when running, it's the head itself or the connection below it."
