I'll search for the sprinkler and I think in the other paper, a lady did have success getting TV to help. Will do further research.
Did you contact GMS about the roots and damage? I don't think one of the maintenance contractors has the authority to approve fixing the problem for you. Thus you were told to get an engineer at your expense. I would certainly pursue this through GMS and the district before spending your own money on a problem caused by Villages or developer's property. To me, it's no different than a neighbors tree causing a problem with your home.
