Germination starting to occur after only 10 days on this job in Hawthorn.

Xtreme Dominance Bent seed is a ultra high end putting and playing turf that can tolerate up to a 2mm cut height.

By spring time this lawn will be a pristine putting green.

Not only does it grow vigorously, but its fungal/disease resistance is fantastic. It performs well in even shady locations, can handle both clay and sand soil types and even tolerates soils with poor drainage.

The root system is very shallow making it easy to irrigate and renovate.

One of the biggest residential irrigation jobs we have tackled to date. 1450m² property, over 300m of dripline to garden beds and hedges, 50 MP Rotator sprinkler heads and bodies, 400m of 19mm feed lines, 400m of trenching, 650 metal U stakes to hold the above ground lines in place, over 1000 connections and 4000 fittings. 8 irrigation zones (6 for the lawns, and 2 for the gardens), full WIFI controller that connects to weather stations and receives regular updates from the BOM.

We had to deal with and remove roughly 5 wheelie bins worth of discarded builders refuse scattered through out and buried in the lawns and gardens, leveling/earth works preping 1000m² of turf surfaces and garden beds ready for lawn seed and mulch, excavation of a water meter that had been bent over and encased in concrete, and finally oversowing 300m² of turf base with Dominance Extremely Bent Grass lawn seed.

8 days on the tools and 10 hour days, but finally its completed, now the waiting game for the seed to germinate! 😎🌱💧🔧⛏️

Today, we’re working on a stunning property near Victoria Avenue, addressing a long-standing issue with a poorly installed subsurface lawn irrigation system. The original installation, unfortunately, was handled by a landscaping crew under pressure from a developer to meet tight deadlines and budgets. As a result, corners were cut, and the system has since become a major headache for the homeowner.

Upon excavation, we found irrigation pipes and wiring buried less than an inch beneath the surface – a far cry from the industry standard of at least 100mm for main lines and wiring. This shallow installation leaves the system vulnerable to damage, especially during routine lawn aeration or coring. Had the client proceeded with those treatments, they would have faced a serious mess: a flooded lawn, a destroyed irrigation system, and an exorbitant repair bill.

By transitioning the property to a properly installed pop-up irrigation system, we’re not only ensuring that the lines are placed at the correct depth, but we’re also saving the client from the hassle of manually watering in fertilisers and supplements by hand. A well-designed irrigation system, installed by qualified professionals, ensures long-term efficiency and reliability.

This situation highlights the critical difference between hiring specialized irrigation experts versus general landscapers. Irrigation systems require detailed planning and expertise that goes beyond basic landscaping knowledge. Investing in the right professionals from the start will save you from costly repairs and headaches down the line.

Winter Irrigation Tip: Check Valve Boxes for Leaks

As winter sets in, don’t forget to check your irrigation valve boxes for moisture. Moisture or standing water can signal leaks, leading to water wastage and potential damage.
