Irrigation Systems
Efficient watering systems that keep plants healthy through Melbourne summers - without wasted water or hours holding a hose.
The right water, in the right place
We install efficient watering systems that can be controlled from your phone. These systems can adjust automatically based on the weather, so your garden gets the water it needs without wasting a drop.
Every system is designed around your soil and plants: drip lines for garden beds and hedges, sprays for lawns, and separate zones so each area gets the right amount. Sandy Bayside soils and heavier Eastern-suburbs clays need very different watering, and we set systems up accordingly.

Our Process
Assess
We check water pressure, soil type, sun exposure and what you’re growing, plus any existing system worth keeping.
Design zones
Lawns, beds, hedges and pots are grouped into zones with the right emitters, so nothing is over- or under-watered.
Install & program
We install, test and program the controller, and show you how to adjust it from your phone.

Watering for your soil
Sandy soils (Bayside)
Water drains through quickly, so drip irrigation with shorter, more frequent cycles and a good layer of mulch works best.
Bayside servicesClay soils (Boroondara)
Clay absorbs water slowly and runs off if watered too fast. Lower flow rates and split cycles let water soak in.
Boroondara servicesCourtyards & pots
Pots dry out fastest of all. Dedicated drip lines to each pot take the daily watering chore away.

Client Testimonials
Rated 5 stars on Google by homeowners across Melbourne.
Did an excellent job, professional, prompt, great customer service and communication. Fantastic quality of work! Would recommend.
Joe and his team are excellent. Great operators, always easy to communicate with. Punctual, tidy and effective. I would highly recommend.
I've had Joe and his team over to my property twice now, and both times they've done an outstanding job. They worked efficiently, left everything spotless, and most importantly, really listened to what I was after. The work was done to a high standard, and their pricing was very fair for the quality of service provided. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and genuinely skilled gardening team, I'd highly recommend Joe.
FAQ
Irrigation FAQs
- Is drip irrigation worth it?
- For garden beds, hedges and pots, yes. Drip delivers water straight to the root zone with far less evaporation and overspray than sprinklers, and keeps foliage dry, which helps reduce disease.
- Can you add smart control to my existing system?
- In many cases, yes. Replacing an old timer with a Wi-Fi controller lets you adjust watering from your phone and pause it automatically when it rains.
- How often should irrigation run in summer?
- It depends on your soil, plants and the weather. As a rule, watering deeply and less often is better than a light daily sprinkle, while sandy soils need more frequent watering than clay.
- Do you repair existing systems?
- Yes. We find and fix leaks, broken sprays, blocked drippers and faulty controllers, and can upgrade older systems.
