"My retics is an old system installed unconventionally. It took Chris a lot of effort to locate the failed solinoid (which was burried underground!) and fix it. Chris is very friendly and professional. The charging system of the company is fair and reasonable. I will certainly seek help from this company in future. Tony, South Perth."

Your local Hillman 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 Rockingham — worth checking before verge retic work, and we can advise on what your council allows. Loose calcareous sand with minimal nutrient or moisture retention; systems here benefit from matched-precipitation nozzles and shorter, more frequent cycles. Sandy soils over shallow groundwater make this classic garden-bore territory; running retic from a bore takes garden watering off the scheme-water bill. Bores follow the same 2-day roster and winter switch-off as scheme users. Local average is ~750mm a year, about 77% of it in the May-September wet season (Medina Research Centre) — reprogram seasonally and switch sprinklers off for the mandatory June-August ban. We're about 22 km from our Jandakot base, well inside the daily service runs.
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 Hillman’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Quindalup coastal sands. Fast-draining coastal dunes mean the margin for a blocked or misaligned sprinkler is tiny — regular system checks plus wetting agents protect lawns in this sand.
Groundwater & bores. Groundwater under this part of the coastal plain is generally accessible, so a garden bore (new or revived) is a practical way to water without paying scheme rates. Water Corporation's roster and winter sprinkler ban still apply to bores.
Rainfall — about 750mm a year. Expect ~750mm annually per the Medina Research Centre gauge, heavily winter-weighted (~77% May-Sep): summer is effectively rain-free, so summer run times carry the garden.

Reticulation Hillman FAQs
Generally yes — Hillman 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. Sandy soils over shallow groundwater make this classic garden-bore territory; running retic from a bore takes garden watering off the scheme-water bill. Bores follow the same 2-day roster and winter switch-off as scheme users.
