Default Irrigation Donut Maintenance

As many of you know, after a couple years, the irrigation water washes out the dirt below each sprinkler head, causing the heads to drop lower and lower below grass level.

There used to be a guy here in TV called Don The Donut Man. For a modest fee, he would clear the grass and weeds from around sprinkler heads, raise each head by packing sand underneath the pipe and elbow, and re-install the concrete donut. Unfortunately, I understand that Don has passed away.

Does anyone know if someone else has jumped in to provide this service?
