Thanks for any input you may have on this.

There most likely not sinking. As the grass gets established it gets thicker it raises higher, The problem is easy to fix. Go to home depot and buy extentions at differant lenghs. You can also buy ones that can be cut to any lenth you want at inch increments. The work is not too diercult. You dig down as far as the pipe the hole the same size as the donut. Remove the assembly thats attached to a tee or elbow and you can add the extention. The parts are all hand tight.
