How to Choose an Irrigation Company
Check licences and insurance
Irrigation work involving mains water connections requires a licensed plumber in most states. Some states also require irrigation-specific licences. Always verify that your installer holds a current licence and carries public liability insurance before signing a contract.
Get a detailed written quote
Your quote should specify the number of zones, types of heads (rotary, fixed spray, or drip), controller type, solenoid valves included, pipe specification, rain sensor, and what commissioning and programming is included. Avoid vague per-job pricing without component breakdown.
Confirm design and zone layout
A professional irrigator should visit the site before quoting to assess garden size, existing plantings, soil type, sun/shade patterns, and water pressure. A system designed around actual site conditions will outperform a generic quote-based install.
Ask about water restrictions compliance
Your irrigator should be familiar with the water restrictions that apply to your property and confirm the system can be programmed to be compliant. In Perth, Brisbane, and Melbourne in particular, restriction schedules are strictly enforced.
Understand what is included in commissioning
Commissioning should include: testing all zones for correct coverage and pressure, adjusting head alignment, programming the controller for your watering schedule, and demonstrating operation. Ask whether seasonal schedule reviews are included or charged separately.
Compare service and warranty terms
Ask about warranty on installation workmanship and on the components used. Most quality components carry 2–5 year product warranties. Understand the call-out rate and response time if you have a fault within the warranty period.
