Scheduling and invoicing for irrigation businesses in Australia
Irrigation work means visiting properties to install, repair, or maintain sprinkler systems, drip lines, and controllers — often with multiple stops per day across rural and suburban areas. DayRoute helps you plan efficient routes between sites, track parts and materials, and invoice on completion. Built for Australian irrigation contractors and landscapers who handle water systems.
Common challenges for irrigation businesses
Jobs are spread across wide areas
Irrigation work covers large service areas — sometimes rural properties 30+ minutes apart. Without route planning, you waste hours on the road.
Tracking parts and materials per job
Sprinkler heads, PVC fittings, valves, controllers — every job uses different parts. Keeping track of costs per client is essential for accurate invoicing.
Seasonal demand creates scheduling chaos
Spring and summer bring a flood of new install requests on top of existing maintenance rounds. Without a system, you double-book and miss jobs.
