"Dillon arrived and time and knew exactly what to do after a quick yet thorough survey. Job was completed on time, refuse squared away. Big callout to Dillon for a great job. I will be using them again when we rewnew our garden later this year!"

Verge and streetscape watering rules sit with the City of Kwinana — worth checking before verge retic work, and we can advise on what your council allows. Sand over limestone drains rapidly and can turn water-repellent in summer — wetting agent plus shorter, more frequent cycles is the standard fix in this belt. Good bore country: the superficial aquifer is within practical drilling reach under these sands. Watering from a bore costs pumping power rather than scheme rates — with the same 2-day roster and winter ban as everyone else. The Medina Research Centre gauge averages ~750mm a year, ~77% of it May through September — dial summer cycles for zero rainfall help and let the winter switch-off do its job. Our depot in Jandakot puts Anketell about 13 km away, comfortably inside our everyday coverage.

What does Anketell’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Spearwood sands. Classic Spearwood profile: free-draining sand, limestone beneath. Lawns respond to frequent light watering, and sprinkler layouts need decent pressure to cover evenly.
Groundwater & bores. This suburb sits on Perth's sandy coastal plain over the superficial aquifer, where garden bores are common and generally productive. Bore water isn't metered like scheme supply, so a serviced bore slashes the cost of keeping gardens green — the standard 2-day roster and June-August sprinkler switch-off still apply.
Rainfall — about 750mm a year. Roughly 750mm a year here (Medina Research Centre), with about 77% of it falling May-September — the long dry rest of the year is why controller programming and coverage checks pay for themselves.

Hear From Our Happy Customers...
"Our lawn was looking very sad due to bad and broken retic. Lots of broken sprinklers replaced and some troubleshooting and our lawn looks amazing. Thanks John and Perth Retic!"
"Thibaut turned up on time and was knowledgeable of the system. He was efficient and professional in his work. Retic was fixed and work time was pretty much right on his estimated time. He cleaned up after himself and left the garden in a good state. I would highly recommend him for retic repairs."
"My requirements were listened to carefully. Suggestions to fix my problem were offered which made sense. On the day of installation, ongoing refinements were made on the spot as unforeseen hindrances were uncovered. The end result was exactly what I was looking for and it all worked perfectly. Even a slight concern on my part was immediately attended to with a very practical solution. All in all a thoroughly professional job and the interaction with the installer was very friendly and enjoyable as well."
"Perth Reticulation Experts have been amazing with my installation. I've been informed about everything right from the start and had Danny do an incredible job on the installation"
"Punctual, polite and professional. Dylan carried out the work quickly and efficiently as requested . Great value service."
Reticulation Anketell FAQs
Generally yes — Anketell sits over accessible groundwater, which is why garden bores are common here. Bore water isn't metered like scheme water, so a bore can dramatically cut the running cost of keeping lawns and gardens alive. We install, service and repair bores and pumps; ask us whether your block is a good candidate. Good bore country: the superficial aquifer is within practical drilling reach under these sands. Watering from a bore costs pumping power rather than scheme rates — with the same 2-day roster and winter ban as everyone else.
Sand over limestone drains rapidly and can turn water-repellent in summer — wetting agent plus shorter, more frequent cycles is the standard fix in this belt. We factor this into zoning, run times and sprinkler selection on every Anketell job — it's the difference between a green lawn and a water bill.
The Water Corporation roster applies across Anketell like the rest of Perth — two watering days a week based on your address (bores included, since the 2022 roster change), and the winter sprinkler switch-off runs June through August. We set every controller we touch to the correct roster before we leave.
