16 retic jobs here so far
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.
What do we actually fix in Mandogalup? Looking at our completed jobs, it's mostly new system installs, controller work and solenoid & valve repairs — and with 14 jobs here in the last 24 months alone, we're in the suburb all the time.
Verge planting and reticulation rules sit with the City of Kwinana, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Mandogalup 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.
Sand over limestone: what it means 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. Domestic bores perform well across this sand-plain suburb, and an older bore is often worth servicing rather than abandoning. Bore watering follows the standard 2-day roster and the June-August sprinkler switch-off.
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.

From our Mandogalup job book
What a Mandogalup install assumed, stated up front
A Mandogalup installation is a useful example of scoping work honestly before it starts. The scope recorded what the job assumed rather than leaving it to be discovered: that sleeves would be supplied, installed and clearly marked by others so they could be located when the reticulation went in; that verge areas would have access for a mini excavator; and that the system would be installed but could not be tested, because there was no water supply to the site yet.
It also recorded what was not allowed for — locating sleeves that turn out not to be where the plans show them, hard digging, and in-ground obstructions. Dial Before You Dig information was obtained as part of the preparation.
Stating assumptions in writing is what keeps a variation from becoming an argument: everyone knows in advance which conditions were priced and which were not.

Hear From Our Happy Customers...
"Seamless!! My very old(20+ years)retic nightmare became manageable and serviceable once again. Thankyou Dylan"
"Clinton and the team at Perth Reticulation Experts are very professional and fixed my reticulation with no problems. They explained what they were doing along the way and what the original issue was. As a young woman in her first home I felt I was listened to, the staff are super friendly and happy to go above and beyond to complete 5e job. Would highly recommend."
"Excellent service. Great communications up front, and serviceman turned up on time. He was efficient and quick and did a good job of explaining what he had done to fix the system."
"Tom was really efficient and knowledgeable. He knew exactly what to do at my place and had it done and tidied. Gave some advice on how to get the lawn back to being green and healthy. At my neighbour's place where I look after their garden it was a bit different as he was virtually working blind as I was not able to help with what stations came on etc. However it did not faze him and even though it took some time he finally was able to work out what happening and getting it sorted. Also checked the other sprinklers and adjusted to suit and changed timing of retic to suit. I called Perth Retic as last time Justin had come to my place to sort out retic and he provided excellent service as well so I had no hesitation in calling them this time. I would recommend them without a doubt."
"My difficult reticulation job was handled efficiently with all problems solved. I would happily recommend this company."
Local reticulation questions
Check with the City first. Mandogalup is in the City of Kwinana.
Generally yes — Mandogalup sits over accessible groundwater, which is why garden bores are common here. Iron staining and yield are the two things worth establishing before you drill, and both are local to your block. We handle bores, pumps and the reticulation they feed.
Mandogalup 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 Mandogalup is controller work, so that's where the technician starts. Run times get set to put down roughly 10mm per rostered day, delivered in one or two cycles inside the same watering window, depending on how fast it soaks.
Water Corporation sets Mandogalup'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 Medina station averages about 78 mm of rain in September and 39 mm in October, close to central Perth's 80 mm.
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.
