About Water & Electrical Services

Practical irrigation, pumping and water treatment — done properly

We’re a Canterbury crew who design, install and service the systems that keep your place watered and working: centre pivots, pumps and mainlines, smart residential irrigation, effluent, tanks and filtration. On time, tidy, and accountable.

Why we started

Too many systems looked good on paper but under-delivered in the paddock or garden. We built Water & Electrical Services to fix that: practical designs for real-world pressure and water quality, workmanship you can trust, and people who turn up when they say they will. That’s the bar we set — and keep.

Who we are

Founded by James L0urie, we’re a small, capable team that mixes irrigation with electrical smarts. We’ve been at it for about five and a half years and are growing steadily. The goal is simple: reliable systems, clear communication, Canterbury.

History

Split

agricultural / Industrial/residential — from high-end landscapes to large farm operations.

Diverse

We’re registered dealers for selected parts suppliers and keep the high-volume components our clients actually need. An online parts store (starting with ~20 key items) is being added to reduce phone time and keep your water on.

Canterbury farms, developers and homeowners — from Darfield and Leeston through greater Christchurch down toward Ashburton. Whether it’s scheduled servicing before peak season or an urgent night-time callout, we’ll get you sorted.

James is a hands-on owner with both the rural network and the technical grounding to get things right first time. He’s built the business on tidy work, straight answers and respecting your time — the kind of operator people recommend after the job’s done.
