SOIL FERTILITY
Poor or neglected soils will not be suitable for healthy plant growth … which in the long run will have several disadvantages and cost implications. We specialise in the improvement of soil fertility through proper feeding/fertilisation (both organic and inorganic) as well as the improvement of the actual soil properties (soil structure and texture). Composting and mulching are highly recommended as this is Mother Nature’s way of creating sustainable living spaces. We do supply and install weed-free organics in bulk.
IRRIGATION
We Maintain, Repair, Install, Upgrade, and Advise on successful irrigation systems that are cost and water efficient. Manual and Automated Systems are available.
Irrigation design consists of a combination of art, science and logic and all too often problematic irrigation systems are installed by contractors.
We can advise on successful water harvesting practises.
Water is life-giving but can become a nuisance and hazard if not controlled. Improving the drainage of the soil and water run-off of the in a controlled manner has several benefits. Damp issues can be addressed with success through the use of quality waterproofing products.
