Your local Carine 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 planting and reticulation rules sit with the City of Stirling, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Carine is roughly 28 km from our Jandakot depot — same-week bookings are the norm, not the exception.
We’re a Water Corporation Waterwise Garden Irrigator and an Irrigation Australia member, every job is backed by our workmanship warranty, and we’re rated 4.7 from 230 Google reviews.

What does Carine’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Spearwood sands. This limestone-derived sand holds little water, favouring a watering-day run split into two shorter cycles. Alkaline soil and caprock are normal here — worth knowing before any retic excavation.
Groundwater & bores. Shallow sandy geology means bores in this area usually deliver reliable garden water; pairing one with well-tuned reticulation keeps large lawns affordable. The 2-day roster and winter ban apply to bore watering too.
Rainfall — about 718mm a year. Expect ~718mm annually per the Perth Metro gauge, heavily winter-weighted (~79% May-Sep): summer is effectively rain-free, so summer run times carry the garden.

From our Carine job book
Reducing the joins on a Carine manifold
A Carine system was having a master valve (the main valve that shuts the whole system off) added, and unearthing the PVC to work out how to tie it into the existing manifold revealed a problem worth fixing while everything was open: the pipework ran at awkward angles and used a large number of joins. Every join is a potential leak, so a manifold assembled from many of them is a manifold that will keep producing faults.
Our technician pointed this out to the owner, who agreed to have it dealt with, and the manifold was rebuilt with the solenoids replaced. There was no spare wire available for the new master valve, so an existing field wire was used with an add-a-station (a device that runs a second valve off an existing wire) device rather than trenching a new run.
An isolation valve was installed alongside. Rebuilding once, with fewer joins, is cheaper than repairing each of them in turn.
What we actually find in Carine
We've completed 17 jobs in Carine. For this pattern check we read the 6 with the fullest, most recent technician notes — a capped sample, deliberately small and not random. 3 involved failed solenoids and valve coils (23% across the 1,781 Perth jobs sampled the same way) and 3 involved broken pop-ups and blocked nozzles (29%). Counts overlap, because one job can carry both. It is not Carine's fault rate, and we don't publish it as one.
