Irrigation
Water in the right place, in the right amount, without you standing there with a hose.
Drip and spray systems, seasonal start up and shut down, and repairs.
We work with both drip and spray irrigation. Drip puts water at the base of plants and suits beds. Spray covers open areas such as lawn. Many gardens want some of each, and which goes where is easiest to decide when the planting and the lawn are on the same plan.
A system also needs attention at each end of the year. We start it up for the season and shut it down again before winter.
And we repair systems when something stops working, whether that is a head that no longer sprays or a line that is losing water.

When this is the right sheet
- New planting is going in and you want it watered reliably while it settles.
- The system needs starting for the season or shutting down before cold weather.
- Something is not working: a dry patch, a wet patch, or a zone that will not come on.
- Whether there is a system already, and anything you know about it.
- Where the controller and the outdoor water supply are.
- Which areas are too dry or too wet at the moment.
None of this is required. It just makes the site visit more useful.
