The Sitetech Story

From Local Roots to Regional Leaders in Irrigation

We started Sitetech Horticultural Engineers with a simple belief: The UK’s growers deserved better irrigation solutions than what was available. Having spent decades in the industry and talking with international and UK growers, we understood the frustration of dealing with inefficient watering systems and one-size-fits-all solutions that never quite fit.

How We Got Started

Simon, our founder, spent years working in both horticulture and engineering before spotting a gap in the market. Local growers were either making do with outdated systems or paying premium prices for installations that didn’t understand the unique challenges of the UK’s climate and soil conditions. We knew we could do better.

We began by helping soft fruit and ornamental growers improve their irrigation setups. Word spread quickly – here was a company that actually listened, understood the needs, and delivered systems that worked. Today, we’ve grown to serve farms across Lancashire and beyond, but we’ve never forgotten those early lessons about the importance of local knowledge and personal service.

What Drives Us Forward

Every morning, our team arrives knowing that our work directly impacts the success of local food production. That’s a responsibility we take seriously. Whether we’re designing a complex irrigation system for a 200-acre operation or fabricating custom parts for a specialist grower, we approach each project with the same dedication and attention to detail.

But the most valuable asset we have isn’t machinery – it’s the accumulated knowledge from hundreds of successful installations and the relationships we’ve built with growers who trust us with their livelihoods.
