Irrigation
Water is the lifeblood of gardening and a sure means of growing your investment
in a water wise manner. The Growing Business will assess your garden and take
a number of aspects into account before designing a customised irrigation solution.
Most importantly, water conservation is top of mind, while other considerations
would include:
- Type of soil
- Amount of sun and shade
- Average temperature
- Rainfall
- Storm water harvesting opportunities
- Topography of the garden
- Amount of ground cover
- Types of plants used
- And more.
Once these aspects have been carefully considered, an irrigation system is
designed to exactly suit the water requirements of your garden and your lifestyle.
These systems can be manual or automated for convenience, but our systems always
boast responsible water usage and optimised irrigation.
The irrigation process at The Growing Business includes the following activities:
- Analysis of the landscape and requirements of the client
- Professional system design
- Simulation of the system to analyse the inflow and distribution of the water
supply
- Client approval of the system and budget
- Site preparation and trench digging
- Certified professionals install the system using quality guaranteed irrigation
products from approved manufacturers
- Warranties, maintenance schedules, replacement of parts and aftercare options
