Professional Irrigation Maintenance Services in Singapore

At Buddy Irrigation , we understand that a high-quality irrigation system is an investment in the health and beauty of your landscape. To guarantee that your system functions appropriately and maintains the vitality of your plants and lawns, regular repairs and maintenance are essential. Even minor mechanical issues can significantly impact a system's ability to deliver water effectively and can lead to unnecessary waste.

Why Regular Maintenance Matters

Professional maintenance goes beyond simple repairs; it is about optimizing your system for peak efficiency. The benefits of a routine maintenance schedule include:

  • Significant Cost Savings: Properly maintained systems use water more efficiently, which can reduce water utility bills by approximately 60-70% compared to manual watering.
  • Water Conservation: In Singapore’s environment, manual watering is often only 30% efficient due to soil type and evaporation, whereas a well-maintained drip system can achieve 100% water use efficiency.
  • System Longevity: Regular technical support and hardware/software repairs help prolong the life of your system, with some professionally maintained setups lasting 20 years or more.
  • Plant Health: Consistent, automated watering prevents the stress caused by the inconsistent timing and volume of manual methods.

Our Comprehensive Maintenance Checklist

We provide detailed technical inspections and support, which can be scheduled on a monthly or quarterly basis to ensure optimum functionality. A typical maintenance service includes:

  • Controller Programming: We act as the "brain" of your system, ensuring the irrigation controller is correctly programmed with the specific watering days, start times, and durations required for your plants.
  • Sensor Calibration: Testing and adjusting rain sensors to ensure they automatically stop the system during rainfall to conserve water.
  • Component Inspection: Checking and cleaning filters, testing solenoid valves, and inspecting control panels.
  • Emitter & Sprinkler Care: Adjusting spray patterns, flushing laterals, and replacing faulty emitters or pop-up sprinklers.
  • Leak Detection & Pipe Repair: Identifying and fixing leaks in uPVC, HDPE, or LDPE piping and fittings to prevent soil erosion and water loss.
  • Pump Maintenance: Monitoring irrigation pumping units, including pressure switches and water top-up mechanisms.

Signs Your System Needs Professional Attention

You should contact a specialist if you notice any of the following symptoms in your landscape:

  • Dry spots appearing in your lawn or garden beds.
  • Misting or leaking from sprinkler heads.
  • Pooling water or signs of soil erosion.
  • Unusually high water bills.
  • Erratic operation, such as stations not turning on or off as programmed.

Flexible Service Models
