Pricing guide

Costs vary mainly with the job scope — a simple diagnostic and minor repairs, a controller replacement, or multiple valve/manifold work with short excavation will usually sit in different bands. Requirements such as mains electrical work, depth or extent of excavation, parts needed and after-hours attendance can significantly affect the final price.

  • Type of service required

    Controller replacement, a standard diagnostic visit, and valve bank or manifold replacement each involve different labour and materials and will usually be quoted differently.

  • Electrical work and mains wiring

    Controller jobs that require mains wiring, a new transformer or other electrical work often need a separate electrician and are typically excluded from a standard irrigation quote.

  • Extent of excavation or concrete cutting

    Valve bank replacements may include short excavations, while deep digging or concrete cutting and major reinstatement are generally treated as additional works.

  • Number of valves or zones affected

    Replacing multiple valves or a whole manifold increases labour and parts compared with fixing a single head or solenoid.

  • Access, site condition and urgency

    Restricted access, hazardous conditions, or after-hours attendance can extend the visit time and are commonly reflected in the final quote.
