Garden Irrigation Systems in Mallorca
On Mallorca the irrigation decides what the planting plan is allowed to be. Tell us the size of the plot, the water you have and what is growing, and we pass the request to companies that install systems in your area.

The water source decides the design
A property on mains supply, a property on a well and a property running off a cistern are three different engineering problems. Mains pressure varies by village and drops in August. A well has a flow rate and a salinity reading that both matter. A cistern has a volume, which turns the question into how much storage the garden empties in a week.
Restrictions matter as well. Municipalities on Mallorca move in and out of drought measures, and a system built around generous summer watering is the one that suffers first when a town hall limits use.
A well designed system answers that by zoning. Drip on beds and hedges, separate circuits for trees, and anything thirsty grouped so it can be cut back on its own rather than by turning everything down.
What an irrigation request usually covers
- Water source, pressure and flow measured rather than assumed
- Zoning by plant type and by exposure
- Drip line, micro sprays and tree rings
- Filtration and pressure regulation
- Controller, valves and rain or moisture sensors
- Cistern, pump or tank connection where there is one
- Trenching and ducting under future surfaces
- A watering programme set for each season
- Instructions for whoever manages the property
How your request reaches a company
Mallorca Landscapers is a comparison service. A request for an irrigation system goes to the landscaping companies on our list; they quote the work and carry it out, and any agreement is between you and the company you pick.

Should irrigation go in before or after planting?
Before, in almost every case. Laying pipe around established plants means digging near roots and usually means compromising on where the emitters end up.
Can a system be run from abroad?
Yes. Controllers with a phone connection are common on holiday properties here, and they also let a maintenance company adjust the programme without a visit.
How long does an irrigation system last?
Filters, valves and controllers are the parts that fail first, and exposed drip line degrades in strong sun. Ask each company what it expects to need replacing and when, since that is part of the real cost.
