Irrigation Planning

Irrigation is easy to overlook and expensive to retrofit. We plan efficient, targeted watering into the garden from the outset.

Designed around the planting

A good system waters where water is needed and nowhere else. We zone irrigation to match the planting scheme — thirsty beds on one circuit, drought-tolerant areas on another, lawn separately — so nothing is over- or under-watered. Drip lines go to shrubs and beds; sprays only where they genuinely suit.

What the plan covers

• Zone layout matched to planting requirements
• Pipe runs, valves, and connection points
• Controller specification and scheduling
• Rain sensors and smart controls where appropriate
• Winterisation and access for maintenance

Water used responsibly

Smart controllers adjust to weather rather than running blind on a timer. Correct zoning cuts waste. Mulching and the right plant choices reduce demand in the first place. The result is a garden that stays healthy through dry spells without wasting a resource that's only getting scarcer.

Built in, not bolted on

Because irrigation is planned alongside the design, pipework is installed before paving goes down and planting goes in. No digging up finished surfaces later, no visible retrofits — the system disappears into the garden entirely.
