- Repairs on older systems. Leaks, cracked laterals and failed valves. See Farm Irrigation Repairs.
- Orchard upgrades. Drip or micro for stone fruit blocks. See Orchard Irrigation.
- Pump faults. Loss of pressure, noisy bearings and motor trips. See Irrigation Pump Repairs.
- Pre-season checks. Servicing before summer. See Farm Irrigation Maintenance.
Conditions to Mention
- Summer breakdowns. A failed pump in hot weather hurts quickly, so keeping spare seals and fittings on hand is worth discussing.
- Late-summer water. River and dam levels drop, which affects pump suction and how far the water stretches.
- Blocks at different levels. Narrow valley blocks need pressure set for each height.
- Ageing pipe. Widespread small leaks can point to a mainline near the end of its life.
Arranging Quotes in Montagu
For breakdowns, describe the symptoms and send a photo of the pump nameplate. Planned upgrades are easier to price after a site visit in the dormant season.

Agricultural Irrigation Montagu FAQs
What should I tell a pump technician before a call-out?
Describe what changed, such as low pressure, noise or tripping, and send the nameplate details. It helps them bring the right parts.
Is it worth repairing an old orchard system?
If the mainline is sound, repairing laterals and emitters can extend its life. If leaks are widespread, ask for a replacement quote as well.
Why does my pump lose pressure in late summer?
Common causes are a falling water level, a blocked suction or a worn impeller. A technician tests the pump to find which.
