CASE STUDY
Irrigation System Installation in Eltham
A 4-zone smart irrigation system for a large family garden in SE9 — pop-up sprinklers for the lawn, drip irrigation for planted borders, and weather-responsive smart controls that reduce water waste by 40%.
“We lost so many plants during the hot summer of 2024. The irrigation system Wicked Gardens installed means we never have to worry about watering again. It adjusts automatically based on the weather and the garden has never looked healthier.”
The problem
The clients had invested in a premium garden landscaping project the previous year, but were struggling to keep the planting healthy during dry spells. Hand-watering a garden of this size was taking hours every week — and they lost significant planting during the 2024 heatwave.
Work completed
We designed a 4-zone irrigation system tailored to the specific conditions of each area — pop-up sprinklers for the lawn, drip lines for the borders, and a dedicated zone for the raised planters. A smart controller adjusts watering based on local weather data and soil moisture.
The result
The garden has never looked healthier. The system runs automatically, adjusting to weather conditions without any input from the clients. Water usage has reduced by an estimated 40% compared to hand-watering, and the planting is thriving year-round.
