The main Villages installers seem very expensive.

What you describe is something that you really need to learn how to do yourself. The heads just screw out to replace. Don't bother cleaning them, just screw in a new one. Changing direction is just a matter of turning the head in another direction. Even if you hire someone, the heads could become out of alignment within a few days. If your system is made by Hunter, then all the parts are available at ACE Hardware (not Home Depot or Lowes). This is really almost as easy as changing a light bulb. Good luck.
