About this service
Water is precious in Cyprus, and a garden irrigation system is supposed to use it wisely. When it works, drip lines and sprinklers deliver the right amount at the right time, early in the morning before the heat. When it does not, you get dry patches on the lawn, flooded flowerbeds, a soaring water bill or a shrub that quietly dies because its dripper clogged weeks ago.
Most irrigation problems are small and fixable: a pipe split by a strimmer, an emitter blocked with limescale, a solenoid valve that sticks open, a controller that lost its programme in a power cut. A gardener or irrigation specialist can trace the fault, repair it and set the system up to match what your plants actually need through the seasons.
Common repair and maintenance jobs
- Leak repairs: finding and fixing split pipes, loose fittings and damaged drip lines, above or below ground.
- Emitter and nozzle cleaning: clearing drippers, micro-sprayers and sprinkler heads blocked by limescale, sand or roots.
- Valve servicing: checking solenoid valves, diaphragms and wiring when zones will not start or stop.
- Controller programming: setting run times, start times and seasonal adjustments, and replacing batteries.
- Filter cleaning: flushing disc or screen filters so pressure stays even along the lines.
- System changes: adding drippers for new plants, capping unused lines or rerouting around new paving.
Signs your irrigation system needs attention
Look out for puddles or muddy spots that never dry, sprinklers that spray paths and walls instead of planting, zones that run weakly while others are fine, a controller showing errors or the wrong time, and plants wilting in one bed while the rest look healthy. An unexplained rise in your water bill is often the first clue to an underground leak.
The cost depends on the size of the garden and the number of zones, the type of system, whether the fault is easy to find or buried under paving, the parts needed, and whether you want a one-off repair or a seasonal maintenance visit. Mention the brand of controller if you know it.
Seasonal care for Cyprus gardens
- Spring check: test every zone before the heat arrives and fix anything that failed over winter.
- Summer schedule: water early in the morning to reduce evaporation, and adjust run times as temperatures rise.
- Autumn reset: reduce watering as the days cool and after the first rains.
- Winter pause: switch to rain mode or turn the system down, and clean the filters before spring.

Why choose this service
Stop Wasting Water
Fixing leaks and broken heads stops water running onto paths and into drains, which matters in a country where every litre counts through summer.
Tuned to the Seasons
Professionals set run times for Cyprus conditions, increasing watering in the July heat and cutting back once the autumn rains arrive.
Faults Traced Properly
Rather than replacing parts at random, a specialist tests zones, valves and wiring to find the real cause of dry patches or flooding.
Gardens of Any Size
From a few pots on a drip line to multi-zone villa systems, you get offers from people who handle gardens of that scale.
