"We have a hosepipe ban! Can you still work for us?"

Our trading area extends into the Thames water area through the Cotswolds and in 2006, a hosepipe ban was introduced due to water shortages. This meant that Thames domestic customers were not able to use their hosepipes for regular, day-to-day activities one would normally associate with the hosepipe.

Turtle Productions, being a contractor / commercial company is not tied by this level of hosepipe ban which means we can still work on your pond or landscaping project without the restrictions that the domestic customer faces.

However, Turtle Productions works with green issues and recycling in mind. On the subject of pond restorations and cleaning, we drain ponds saving all the pond water (up to 30,000 litres) in large tanks for returning to the pond. The only hosepipe water we then need to use is for washing down purposes - either of the emptied pond or our tools at the end of the project.

We also specialise in low-water use landscaping projects through the use of irrigation systems. These systems can be linked to your regular outside tap or through the use of water butts catching water diverted from your roof. Please see our irrigation page for more information.
