Your local Bateman reticulation team
Whether it's an older system that's started playing up or a new landscape that needs waterwise coverage from day one, we handle the lot — repairs, servicing, controllers, bores and full installations.
Verge and streetscape watering rules sit with the City of Melville — worth checking before verge retic work, and we can advise on what your council allows. Leached grey sand with almost no clay or nutrient holding; it turns non-wetting in summer, so soil wetters and a well-programmed controller earn their keep here. 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. Averages about 808mm a year at the Jandakot Aero gauge with roughly 79% falling May-September — so the controller should step down through autumn and observe the 1 June - 31 August sprinkler switch-off. Bateman is roughly 5 km from our Jandakot depot — same-week bookings are the norm, not the exception.
We’re Waterwise-endorsed and Irrigation Australia members, every job is backed by a full warranty, and we’re Perth’s most-reviewed retic specialist (rated 4.7 from 230 Google reviews).

What does Bateman’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Bassendean sands. This grey sand belt is notorious for dry patch — hydrophobic by mid-summer. Frequent light watering, wetting agents and even sprinkler coverage are the local formula.
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 808mm a year. Around 808mm falls annually (Jandakot Aero data), close to 79% of it May-September; gardens rely almost entirely on reticulation from November to March, when scheduling accuracy matters most.
