We are pleased to announce that on Friday 30th August 2024, MJ Abbott Holdings Ltd acquired the leading Scottish irrigation contractor Turf Irrigation Services (Scotland) Limited, and we welcome all of the TIS team into the MJ Abbott group family.

Established in 1994 by Quentin and Margaret Allardice and based in Linlithgow in Scotland, TIS has grown to become Scotland’s leading specialists in irrigation installation and all aspects of water management.

After the recent successful TIS Scotland contracts at prestigious courses such as Prestwick St Nicholas, Murcar Links and Brora, this exciting change will allow TIS Scotland and MJ Abbott to go from strength to strength, cementing their position as the leaders in irrigation in Scotland and the UK.

Margaret and Quentin would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has helped make TIS (Scotland) Ltd the company it is today.

We welcome Siobhan Smith and new Director, Shaun Anderson, and look forward to working closely with the TIS team to develop the business and increase our presence in the Scottish golf and sports irrigation markets.
