Your local Eglinton 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 Wanneroo, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Our depot in Jandakot puts Eglinton about 60 km away, comfortably inside our everyday coverage.
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 Eglinton’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Spearwood sands. Sand over limestone drains rapidly and can turn water-repellent in summer — a wetting agent, plus splitting the run into two shorter cycles inside the same watering window (both before 9am, or both after 6pm), is the standard fix in this belt.
Groundwater & bores. 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.
Rainfall — about 672mm a year. Around 672mm falls annually (Pearce Raaf data), close to 77% of it May-September; gardens rely almost entirely on reticulation from November to March, when scheduling accuracy matters most.

Repeated breaks along an Eglinton driveway
An Eglinton property had a broken pop-up at the corner of the driveway, then two more along it, plus a leak nearer the letterbox found when the system was run afterwards. Our technician's assessment was blunt and worth passing on: the pattern points to how the system was installed rather than to anything that has gone wrong since.
Heads set too high along a driveway edge, and pipework laid without regard to where vehicles track, will keep breaking however many times they are replaced. The broken pop-up at the corner was repaired and lowered so it sits below the level things pass over.
Where the same section of a system fails repeatedly, replacing the parts is treating the symptom — the useful conversation is about moving the run or changing the head height.

Hear From Our Happy Customers...
"Wayne and Robert are very professional with knowing what they are doing. An example is my underground pump well was covered by grass which I can not identify the exact location. Wayne walk around my garden and pointed a spot said “it’s here. It’s about 2cm bowled in from the flat grass surface.” This is not u can learn from book, it’s professional hands on experience. Also they are very friendly and after I said “I’m interested in learning new things”. He explained all the mechanics and different stages of how to approach the issue and with a sufficient text skills about the sprinkler systems. Big thumbs up for the bois!"

"Tom and Justin did a great job installing new reticulation for my yard. It was a large area so two days worth of work. They were both friendly, installed the works with due care and went through everything in detail whenever I had questions as well as at handover at the end. Happy with the results. Highly recommended."
Reticulation Eglinton FAQs
Yes, but get the City's approval first. Eglinton is in the City of Wanneroo. Irrigation pipes and connections shall be laid beneath the nature strip between 150mm and 300mm deep.
Generally yes — Eglinton sits over accessible groundwater, which is why garden bores are common here. That said, two neighbouring blocks can differ on yield and iron content, so it's an assessment rather than a given. Bores, pumps and bore-fed retic are all work we do.
Eglinton sits on Spearwood sands. Water moves through it fast, and the sand can turn water-repellent once it dries out. The most common thing we get booked for in Eglinton is solenoid & valve repairs, so that's where the technician starts. We set run times to deliver about 10mm on each of your two rostered days, and split the run into two cycles inside the same watering window where the soil needs it.
The same two-day Water Corporation roster as the rest of Perth — Eglinton is no exception, and bores are on it too. Because the roster keys off your street number, two houses on the same street can be on different days — worth checking rather than copying a neighbour.
Repairs aren't quoted — every system and fault is different, so you book a repair rather than a quote. The technician diagnoses and fixes on site, most faults in the same visit. If a larger job needs parts ordered, we'll tell you the cost before we proceed.
