How to choose the best gardening and irrigation professional for your project

Gardening and irrigation companies or professionals in Australia will offer different services, so it’s worth narrowing what you want done, before choosing the right professionals for your project. Those with years of experience are likely to have worked with lawns or crops similar to yours, meaning it’s a safer route to choose. However, up-and-coming professionals can also be equipped with cutting-edge equipment and techniques which may be good to explore. When choosing coastal gardens professionals, ask about their experience with salt exposure and wind, and their membership of an association of professional gardeners.

If you need to contact prospective professionals for more information then feel free to do so. Questions you might find helpful include:

  • How long have you been a gardening and irrigation professional in Australia?
  • Have you ever worked on a garden similar to mine?
  • What type of irrigation system would you recommend for my garden?
  • Do you offer repair or maintenance services?
  • Can you recommend gardening suppliers in Australia?
  • Do you have insurance?
  • How much are your services?

What direction should a garden face?

As a general rule, your garden should face as much natural light (sunlight) as possible. Australia is part of the southern hemisphere, so ideally the garden should be north-facing with only minor shaded areas.

What is the best location for a garden?

This will depend on the type of plants you have and what you want out of your garden. For example, if you are growing vegetables or fruits, more sun exposure is better. It should also be close to a water source (like a tap or hose) for easier watering. On the other hand, if you have a lot of shade-loving plants, too much sun can make them die or be more susceptible to diseases.

How much water do you need to irrigate?

This will depend on the type of crop you are growing. Generally, your lawn and plants need about 10mm of water every time you irrigate. However, drought periods means increasing this amount. Look out for tell-tale signs that your garden needs more water — including dry or wilting plant leaves, or a coarse and brown lawn.

What is the best time of the year to renovate a garden?

Most experts in Australia agree that garden renovation should start after summer and through autumn. Winter can be an appropriate time, but harsh weather conditions can affect how well renovation occurs — so this should be taken into consideration. In Australia, you’ll likely want to enjoy the sunny summer months, without renovation noise as well.
