Where to start..hmm.
Is the water on to the sprinklers?
Is there a master valve, if so, is it working?
Did the plumbers break the pipe and fix it w/out your knowledge in another spot and maybe it is full of dirt?
So many different things could be wrong.....sometimes it is best to hire this out.....but...if you are patient we should be able to help you.
