"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!"

Your local Belmont reticulation team
Belmont sits on good groundwater, so half the retic stories here start at the bore. We've completed 29 residential jobs and 110+ commercial program visits across the suburb — with pump replacements, bore assessments and the classic 'water bill mystery' among our regulars. One call covers the lot: mains retic, bores, pumps and controllers.
Verge and streetscape watering rules sit with the City of Belmont — worth checking before verge retic work, and we can advise on what your council allows. Water-repellent grey sand means uneven lawns if coverage is patchy; regular retic checks plus wetting-agent treatment address the two usual causes together. 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 755mm a year at the Perth Airport M.O. 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. Belmont is roughly 18 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 Belmont’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Bassendean sands. The grey sands here drain instantly and fight re-wetting in summer, so scheduling little and often — with a wetter twice a year — is what works.
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 755mm a year. Around 755mm falls annually (Perth Airport M.O. data), close to 79% of it May-September; gardens rely almost entirely on reticulation from November to March, when scheduling accuracy matters most.

Customer stories from Belmont
When the pump dies in summer
A Belmont system went quiet at the worst time of year, and diagnosis traced it to a failed pump. We supplied and installed a Pedrollo three-phase centrifugal replacement — complete with new check valve and fittings, electrician coordinated for the connection — and while there, repaired the controller and bridged the affected stations so the whole system came back as one. Two visits, garden saved.
Bore work without the runaround
Bore jobs usually mean juggling three trades — unless one company coordinates it. On one Belmont job we brought in the bore crew to lift and assess a failing pump, had the electrician disconnect and tag out safely, then supplied and installed a new Lowara submersible with fresh cable and heat-shrink termination. On another, the assessment honestly concluded replacement over repair, quoted before any work proceeded. Either way: one phone number, every trade handled, no runaround.
The spinning water meter
A Belmont real-estate job came in as a leak mystery: the water meter turning with everything supposedly off. We pressurised the system and found three solenoid valves leaking, plus the fitting connecting them to the tap. All three replaced, pipework repaired, rewired and pressure-tested — the meter stopped dead, and the water bill with it. A broken pipe and sprinkler in the front lawn got fixed on the way out.
And week in, week out
PRE crews service Belmont under commercial maintenance programs — 110+ visits and counting — alongside the suburb's steady stream of bore, pump and retic repairs.

Hear From Our Happy Customers...
"The retic guys were on time, listened to what I had to say and were dedicated to finding a solution."
"Four days after moving over from Victoria contractors came and dug up and destroyed our reticulation system in our front yard putting in street drainage. I was completely horrified as I knew nothing about retic. Matt and George from Perth Reticulation Experts attended to repair our destroyed system. I cannot thank and recommend them highly enough. They fixed the whole system and now it is running like new. Their knowledge is second to none. They were very punctual and their perfect work ethic made the whole process perfect. thankyou so very very much."
"Thanks George for your prompt, professional service."
"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."
"I wanted to remove the old relic controllers that were hardwired in and replace them with a double powerpoint and a new plug in controller I bought on Amazon. The new unit has an app so I can control it from my iPhone. Perth Reticulation Experts did a nice, neat job for me in around an hour and a half and everything is working fine. All the staff I spoke to were responsive and professional and the quote was the lowest I got so I'm quite happy (and I've got a spare powerpoint outside). I've added before and after photos so you see the difference."
Reticulation Belmont FAQs
Yes — supply, installation and the coordination that goes with it (bore crew for lifting and assessment, electrician for safe disconnection and connection). Submersible or centrifugal, we'll recommend honestly between repair and replacement before anything proceeds.
Very possibly. Leaking solenoid valves or cracked pipes can turn the meter around the clock. We pressure-test the system, find every leak, and fix them in the same visit wherever possible.
Yes — we cover all of Belmont and the surrounding suburbs for reticulation repairs, servicing and new system installations.
We don't quote repairs over the phone — every system and fault is different. Call us and we'll book a technician to diagnose and fix it on site; if a larger job needs parts ordered, we'll give you an estimate before we proceed.
