Pop-up sprinkler watering a tropical garden and lawn
From simple tap timers to fully automated multi-zone systems.

Watering designed around the lawn, garden and property.

FNQ Landscapes installs complete irrigation systems—from basic tap timers through to fully computerised controllers. We plan separate zones around the way different areas need water, using pop-up sprinklers for turf and drip lines or micro-sprays for garden beds.

We also upgrade existing systems, add rain sensors where suitable and assess water-tank or pump connections, including replacement pumps where required.

A regular audit helps find wasted water, coverage problems and equipment that is no longer operating as intended. It also gives us the chance to adjust the controller for the season.

Why an annual irrigation audit matters

Control the system from your phone.

Rain Bird is our preferred controller range. Depending on the property, we can install straightforward wall controllers or Wi-Fi enabled systems with app access and optional rain-sensor integration.

We can set up the app on your phone and, with your permission and compatible online access, retain contractor access so some seasonal changes can be completed remotely without a site visit.

From $60Basic remote seasonal controller change, where no site visit or fault diagnosis is required.
Preferred

Rain Bird smart control

Flexible controller options for smaller four-zone gardens through to larger multi-station systems, with Wi-Fi capability available on suitable models.

Remote locations

Battery-powered control

Products such as the Hunter NODE family can provide battery-operated control where a conventional mains-powered controller is not practical.

Weather response

Rain sensors

A compatible rain sensor can suspend scheduled watering after sufficient rainfall and allow the normal program to resume when conditions dry.

Micro-spray irrigation gently watering a tropical Cairns garden

Targeted watering for tropical gardens.

Garden irrigation should deliver water where plants need it without unnecessarily soaking paths, walls or open areas. We can use drip lines or fine micro-sprays depending on the garden layout, planting and pressure available.

Known fault? We can help get the system working again.

We repair and replace leaking valves, damaged sprinkler heads, controller components and accessible pipework. The photographed manifold was exposed so its PVC pipework and valve connections could be repaired and re-glued.

Important scope note

FNQ Landscapes does not provide underground pipe or leak-location services. If the position of a broken underground pipe is unknown, specialist detection may be required before we can complete the repair.
