A regular stop for our reticulation crews
One call covers everything watering-related: mains reticulation, controllers, solenoids, wiring faults.
The Huntingdale work in our job system tells its own story: the most common call-outs here are servicing & tune-ups, controller work and new system installs. 17 of our Huntingdale jobs landed in just the last two years, so the local knowledge is current — not folklore.
Verge planting and reticulation rules sit with the City of Gosnells, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Huntingdale is roughly 10 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 236 Google reviews.

Grey Bassendean sand: fast-draining and water-repellent
Soil — Bassendean sands. 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.
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 775mm a year. Expect ~775mm annually per the Gosnells City gauge, heavily winter-weighted (~79% May-Sep): summer is effectively rain-free, so summer run times carry the garden.

From our Huntingdale job book
An air lock on a Huntingdale system
A Huntingdale system had a station staying on, and the master valve (the main valve that shuts the whole system off) was suspected. Our technician replaced the isolation valve and the master valve solenoid (the electrically-operated valve that feeds one station), and getting it to seat correctly took some working at — the behaviour suggested an air lock in the line.
Air trapped in a mainline stops a valve operating cleanly, because the diaphragm relies on water pressure above it to close, and a pocket of air in the wrong place makes a perfectly good valve behave like a faulty one. Bleeding it out is the fix, and it is a real possibility worth checking before condemning a new valve.
The coil keeping the station energised was replaced, and the system now shuts off correctly across all eight stations. A few remaining garden items the owner elected to handle himself.

"A++++ service! I was looking for quotes to install reticulation at my place. After talking to Joanne, I looked no further. I received a very competitive quote and she arrange for John to come and install the system. Amazing communication and a fantastic job. John even came the Saturday I laid the grass to make sure the sprinklers are at the best height, saying he will follow up in a couple of months to assess if any problems occurred. What a champ! I fully recommend them!"
"Professional, get the job done properly and promptly."
Local reticulation questions
Yes, no approval needed. Huntingdale is in the City of Gosnells. Any reticulation, including water pipes and sprinklers are to be laid beneath the surface of the verge and must not protrude above the lawn or garden surface when not in use.
Generally yes — Huntingdale sits over accessible groundwater, which is why garden bores are common here. Depth, yield and iron content still vary block to block, so it's worth assessing rather than assuming. We install, service and repair bores and pumps.
Huntingdale sits on Bassendean sands. That is Perth's least water-retentive sand, and the one most likely to repel water once dry. The most common thing we get booked for in Huntingdale is servicing & tune-ups, so that's where the technician starts. We aim for around 10mm on each of your two watering days, and decide on site whether that wants one run or two cycles inside the same window.
Water Corporation sets Huntingdale's sprinkler days: check yours with your street number and postcode. In Perth and Mandurah that's two days a week, once before 9am or after 6pm, bores included; elsewhere the roster can differ. The winter switch-off runs from 1 June to 31 August. After it, the Bureau of Meteorology's Gosnells station averages about 78 mm of rain in September and 43 mm in October, close to central Perth's 80 mm. Of our 23 homeowner and business jobs in Huntingdale between 2020 and 2025, 35% came in spring (September to November), against 38% across Perth, so a check booked in early September beats the October–November rush.
A controller repair isn't quoted: book the visit and it's diagnosed and fixed on site. An upgrade, say to Wi-Fi, can be quoted without a visit: tell us if your controller is hardwired or plugs into a power point (a photo helps). If it needs an electrician, we arrange one. Controller work is one of the jobs we do most in Huntingdale.
