Earth & Water

Incredible.

By far the most professional contractor we engaged over the 3 years of building our house.

I am confident that there would be no one better at Landscaping in Perth.

Nigel took a difficult job with lots of criteria to satisfy and delivered it well above the standard we thought was possible.

We had engaged other well known Landscapers who just had no answers to the issues we had.

Nigel and the guys at Earth & Water blow all the competition out of the water.

Earth & Water recently landscaped around our pool. We were genuinely thrilled with the result! Nigel and all of his team were extremely professional throughout the whole process and had great ideas on how we could improve on our initial vision. All works we’re well explained and communicated. We love it!

We love our new lawn and garden beds! Earth and Water were great to work with and very accommodating in helping us setup a low maintenance yard with lots of room to grow over time =)

We have had a great experience with using Earth and Water for our gardens. After 4 attempts with other companies we had almost given up hope of creating the right garden for our home. After our experience with the creation of our vertical garden by Earth and Water (an awesome feature of our new internal courtyard) we asked Nigel to consider what he would do with the sloping front yard. It turned out fantastically and really complements the front of our house (we are talking about re-levelling, walls, plants, fence and reticulation – the lot). Our relationship continued to the large backyard and at last we have a backyard we enjoy being in – fun and practical. We have really enjoyed the creative process, have been very well treated and highly recommend Earth and Water to our friends!

Earth and Water were contacted to help develop a landscape design when we redeveloped our dental practice on Canning Highway in 2008.
We were struggling to create a design that would work adjacent our rear car park which had a sloping block. We also wanted to create an appealing frontage for our business.
I met with the owner of Earth and Water, Nigel Thompson to discuss our landscaping and reticulation needs.
Nigel is a genius with a natural eye for design and creative ideas and thanks to him we were able to create a beautiful garden that is commented on consistently. Nigel was able to share his passion and due to his tireless enthusiasm we were completely satisfied with the results.
As the owner of Earth and Water he has always given us his complete attention and over the last years whenever there has been issues with maintenance Nigel and his team at Earth and Water are always there for us to keep our garden blooming.
Always highly recommended.

I have used Nigel and the team at Earth and Water for the last ten years after meeting Nigel at a Josh Byrnes (Gardening Australia) Open Garden.

Nigel provided the irrigation design and equipment for my House and Garden which has proved very successful allowing my garden to thrive even during our hot summers.

Nigel has also helped me maintain my system and fault find issues and is always willing to share of his knowledge.

I have recommended Nigel to several of my colleagues who are also very happy with his prompt and efficient service.

I have no hesitation in recommending Nigel and his team for a professional and prompt service

Nigel and the team at Earth and Water in our opinion are complete professionals in irrigation and landscaping. We had our entire property in Como stripped bare and landscaped by Earth and Water a few years back, including sub-surface irrigation, water features, paving, planting, plant selection advice, lawns, etc etc. Nigel has personally since that time, called by periodically to check on things of his own volition, and been there within the same day of any calls we have made to he or his team with questions or requests for assistance. If you own a car and don't service it, there will be issues - it's the same thing with subsurface and other irrigation systems and gardens in general. We love our new garden, it is exactly what we wished for and so much more, thanks to the advice we received in the initial planning phase from Nigel. Wouldn't hesitate recommending Earth and Water!!

Nigel and the team at Earth and Water installed a sub-surface drip irrigation system to our front and rear lawns 9 years ago and it has worked faultlessly ever since.
Nigel was recommended to us by several different people and similarly their systems have worked well for them too.
Since our system was installed Nigel has kept in touch and it's obvious that he and the people at Earth and Water are professional with high integrity.

Nigel and his team did a fantastic job for us and our front gardens with raised veggie beds are constantly admired by our neighbors.

Fixed and identified problems that others had told us were lost causes (no need for a new bore and our lawn is looking great, we thought we'd have to start again).

Great advice, quality work and the guys doing the work are all awesome.

Highly recommended....

We value our reputation at Virgin Bores just as much as Nigel does at Earth and Water..... No hesitation in recommending our clients to Nigel for specialist attention from a true professional in irrigation and water management. Had plenty of customers thank us over the years for the referral. Nigel's expertise in sub surface and drip irrigation are recognised industry wide. Important though with sub surface irrigation that service and maintenance recommendations are adhered to. Just ask Nigel for advice.

Nigel at Earth and Water has designed and installed the landscaping and retic systems for our current and previous homes.
When re-financing the valuers have commented that the landscaping has added considerable value to the home, we just think it looks great.
The retic is something special as it allows us to fertilise by putting it in a bucket and opening a couple of valves to allow it to be distributed through the system. Much easier.
We have no hesitation in recommending Earth and Water.

From the first phone call, Nigel and his team have been very professional and very helpful. Nigel takes care to explain everything very clearly. I could see that my garden was struggling to survive but I didn't know why. Nigel suspected high salt levels in the bore water and a high soil PH. This was later confirmed by a Laboratory test. I agreed to Nigel's recommendation to install his Fertigation and Water Conditioning system. The whole process was completed without a hitch and within a month my garden started showing signs of recovery. What I also love is that I can apply fertiliser direct through this system, saving me the time spent spreading fertiliser. The Fertigation system means I'm no longer loosing sleep over my garden and to me that's money well spent.

Nigel and his professional team have worked hand in hand with our clients to create some stunning gardens and landscapes. All of our clients have been happy with Nigel's service and the final results. We have always found Nigel to be honest and very easy to work with.

I have worked with Nigel and his dedicated team at E&W on both a personal capacity and through work. On a personal level, he designed a grey-water recycling system for my existing home, which was quite a challenge to retro-fit. Work-wise, I consulted widely with him on an 8000sq.m sprinkler system to moisture-condition compost and also a spray-field to manage treated black-water from a 1200 person camp in the Pilbara. Helpful, knowledgeable and thorough - a pleasure to deal with.

Earth & Water under took a landscape and irrigation project at our residence , It was only after consultation with a number of other companies that I decided to award the contract to Earth & Water based on the detail & due diligence they had gone to ensuring the success of the project . I was not disappointed , they completed the job in a timely manner and tidied up leaving the yard in a respectable manner at the end of each day . The garden looks amazing and continues to get comments from all who visit us, all thanks to an efficient and effective retic system that was also installed by Earth & Water , Thank you Nigel and the rest of the team.

Earth & Water installed underground rain water tanks in my driveway, a grey water system & a full drip irrigation system throughout our garden. Using as little water as possible, and recycling grey water where possible, I wanted to create a lush, cooling, type tropical courtyard garden feel to our home. By using plantings strategically placed around the block and by supplying the correct amount of water to the garden we intended to achieve this outcome. With Perth's climate it was certainly quite a challenging undertaking.

Earth & Water helped us work through the issues, designing systems, installed the equipment & drip irrigation lines & then bought everything online. For us, we had a quite complex set of needs, hence, we had some teething problems initially, but with a little bit of perseverance by Earth & Water we worked things out & with regular maintenance the system is working very well. We certainly are saving quite a bit of water & our garden continues to take shape & thrive. I would recommend the grey water and sub surface irrigation approach and Earth & Water can get this sorted out for you for sure.

I wanted plastic lawn because it was easier to manage, but my wife refused. Thank goodness she did. Nigel's team installed drip irrigation six years ago and it has proven to be trouble free and easily maintained (they'll even do that too). It looks great.....and no one can see when I irrigate.
Around the same time I had the retic replaced on my rental property's large lawn and garden. It wasn't cheap but it has worked flawlessly since with only one sprinkler replaced due to car traffic damage.
Hats off to the team at Earth and Water.

Earth and Water were recommended to us when building our home. They have been involved in designing all of our irrigation, rainwater tanks, greywater system and now some green walls as well. We've found them to be friendly, efficient and very persistent when something brand new [and there's a lot with our home that was pretty new technology when it was installed] doesn't work properly. We're very happy with the way the system is designed and how well it all works. And the ability to translate a concept to a practical design has been amazing! thanks to all of you.

Rang Earth and Water after business hours with a retic leak requiring mains isolation. Given it was after business hours I was hoping for a call back next day, to my surprise the phone diverted to Nigel who not only took my call but provided troubleshooting advice and guidance until he could arrange an onsite visit. Top shelf customer service and response, definitely recommended!

What a difference Nigel and his team made to our bore water! Quite innovative and neatly done. The water quality after installation of the purification plant is something to behold. 😱✅👍🏼
