Irrigation system installation

Irrigation system installation

The right water supply is the foundation of a healthy garden.

Designed around the garden

We design and install modern automatic irrigation systems that give plants the water they need while saving considerable water and time. Every system is matched to the size and conditions of the garden and to the needs of its planting.

Care for existing systems

Besides installing new systems, we service, repair, commission and winterize existing ones. With modern controls your garden gets the care it needs even while you are away.

Frequently asked questions

No. We use a lawn-friendly trenching machine that cuts a narrow slot, and the grass closes over it within two to three weeks. In a new garden the system goes in before the lawn is laid.

Compared with hand watering, water use is typically 30 to 50 percent lower, because the system waters at dawn with a measured amount per zone, and the rain sensor skips unnecessary cycles.

Either can work. During the survey we measure the available flow and pressure and design the zones around them. Where needed, we add a buffer tank and a booster pump.

Yes. We carry out fault-finding, sprinkler and valve replacement, controller programming, spring commissioning and autumn winterization on systems built by others as well.
