Are you having a hard time finding someone to do a proper maintenance to your garden? Do you need ideas to turn your garden into something you can be proud of? We have the professionals for the job.

We have gardeners that are affordable and great for the simplest of maintenance tasks; we also have gardeners that are masters of their profession and will keep your lawn, flowers, shrubs, trees and everything else garden wise in top notch condition all the time. Garden maintenance is not a simple task and may end up costing more if not done well: we work with gardeners from Olhão to Albufeira depending on the task at hand, the location and the client budget we will advise the best professional for your garden maintenance requirements.

Some of the works we can do for your garden in the Algarve include:


Garden Design & Landscaping

Garden Maintenance

Whether your grass needs cutting, flower beds need a better treatment or your shrubs and trees need pruning, we can offer a competitive quote and the best professional for your garden maintenance. In theAlgarve the minimum recommended frequency of visits is once a week, the Algarve hot weather in the summer makes it impossible for plants to be well nurtured if unattended for longer than that. Our plans usually consist of weekly maintenance visits. During the course of these visits the gardener will follow a predefined plan to ensure that the lawn, plants and trees will receive the nutrients they require. Anti-parasitic spraying will follow a predefined plan or whenever the plants may need it, as in cases of sudden plagues.

Planting

No planting job is too big or small, shall you require a different combination of shrubs, trees or a new array of flowerbeds we will happily assist you with this. Not only will we plant them but our garden maintenance services will make sure that those plants will grow healthy by continuing to feed them the nutrients they need to reach adulthood.

Irrigation

The ECOSSISTEMAS can be ruthless on plant life, without the proper irrigation or in case the irrigation fails for as few as 3 to 4 days the lawn may suffer irreparable damage. It is important for the irrigation plan to meet the requirements of the garden, cheap and poor quality irrigation materials will many times end up costing the owner multiple times the initial investment; whether by wasting water, by its short life or worse, ruining the garden by failing to do their job, to irrigate. At Seashell, quality irrigation material is always included in garden designs and irrigation planning. Every irrigation plan will be backed up with a warranty against any garden damage caused by irrigation flaws.

ECOSSISTEMAS  is proud on the trust relation established with its customers.
ECOSSISTEMAS is a family landscaping and irrigation business .
We have been operating in the Algarve since 1989.
Initially, we only installed irrigation systems, but soon realised that our clients wanted more, so we then branched out into landscaping. We have always maintained irrigation systems but, due to demand, now also offer garden maintenance as these go hand in hand. Therefore, we now offer a complete package.

We also design new gardens and are happy to make suggestions if you wish to give your garden a face lift. One of our specialities is rockeries and we love to transform gardens with considered placing of rocks and the creation of planting pockets.
Many people opt for low maintenance gardens, so with this in mind, we offer high quality artificial grass which looks amazingly real, as well as a variety of chippings, river pebbles and pine bark to create interesting effects.

To add interest at night, 12v garden lighting has proved to be popular, and using this we can create a completely different nocturnal look and feel to your garden by the clever placement of lights.

Our "speciality"; we create “living” rockeries, as one client called them. 

The Algarve has an abundance of rocks, so why not use them to add interest to the garden?

They are a wonderful way of turning a simple slope into something of interest, or help make a huge drop safe without building a high uninteresting wall.

Flat rocks have a variety of uses - simply to retain soil, create a seat, give access through rockeries, rustic steps or just used as stepping stones.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our work and, are always happy to work with our clients - after all in the end it is their garden! No job is too big or too small.

Many clients wish to have grass but worry about the cost of water and maintenance. The solution; high quality artificial grass.

Rocks, both rustic and flat, have many uses in the garden - including natural looking or formal stone walls. They can also be used as stepping stones or pathways.

Wooden Decks are popular too, being used as an extension to the house, an easy way to create a flat sitting area on a sloping site or strategically placed to offer an area a retreat for quiet times.

Pergolas will lead from one room in a garden to another and can either be rustic or more formal.  They also offer a rapid solution to adding height to a garden and as a support for the vast array of wonderful climbers that grow out here.

Ponds and fountains are perfect for that extra ambience and are also very attractive to wild-life.

he Algarve has a Mediterranean climate, with winter rains and six months of hot very dry weather, hence irrigation is an integral part of landscaping a garden. Irrigation is still relevant even for those who wish to have a dry garden, because 90% of plants always need some water during very dry periods.

We install automatic systems which are divided into sections to maximize irrigation effect and are calculated according to the tap pressures.

Lawns are irrigated with a variety of pop ups depending on the size of the area.  According to requirements for the rest of the garden, use will be made of drip, microjet, eintal and shrubbler irrigation.

Irrigation systems, just like cars, need to be maintained regularly.  In addition to doing all inclusive garden maintenance, we also maintain individual irrigation systems

Be adventurous and try some 12v garden lighting around your garden.  It is a wonderful way of creating a different ambiance at night. 

Lights can be used for a variety of reasons such as lighting up dark areas including steps, driveways and paths or just for special effects.  Up lights into trees or special plants will give one a completely different view of your garden and strategically placed lights can create interesting shadows.

In a garden I2v garden lighting is safe and cost effective due to the fact that they only use 10w or 20w globes.

The system we use is professional. It is installed like an irrigation system, so that the globes last a long time.  The transformer comes with a lifetime guarantee.
A garden is only as good as it’s gardener, hence the reason that we offer our quality services to keep the garden looking it’s best.
The garden service includes all general works to be carried out in the garden, e.g. cutting grass, weeding, shrub and plant pruning, check functioning of irrigation.
It does not include plants, manure fertilizer, replacement of sprinklers heads or any irrigation repairs and tree cleaning
