Your local Lathlain reticulation team
Repairs aren't quoted — you book a repair and our technician diagnoses and fixes on site, with the parts already on the van. New systems are quoted after a paid site assessment, credited in full to your install if you accept the quote within 30 days.
Verge planting and reticulation rules sit with the Town of Victoria Park, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Lathlain is roughly 15 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 Lathlain’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Bassendean sands. The grey sands here drain instantly and fight re-wetting in summer, so splitting one watering into two cycles inside the same window — with a wetter twice a year — is what works.
Groundwater & bores. 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.
Rainfall — about 718mm a year. Around 718mm falls annually (Perth Metro data), close to 79% of it May-September; gardens rely almost entirely on reticulation from November to March, when scheduling accuracy matters most.

From our Lathlain job book
Bore line and bubblers for a Lathlain garden
A Lathlain installation was built around a bore, with two new 25mm solenoid valves (the electrically-operated valve that feeds one station) positioned at the rear near the pump. The planted areas were run on bore-rated drip line rather than spray heads, and the fruit trees at the far rear were given adjustable bubblers.
Both choices are deliberate. Drip line rated for bore water resists the blocking that ordinary drip suffers on a sediment-carrying supply, and bubblers deliver a high volume slowly to a single root zone, which is what a fruit tree wants — a deep soak rather than a fine spray across the surface.
A 25mm lateral was run to the front and capped for future works, so that section can be extended later without disturbing what has just been installed.
What we actually find in Lathlain
Of our 18 Lathlain jobs we read the 6 with the fullest, most recent notes — capped, and not a random sample. 4 involved mainline leaks and split poly, against 33% across the 1,781 Perth jobs sampled the same way. Enough to shape where we start; not enough to call Lathlain unusual.

What Lathlain customers say
“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.”
