Your local Nedlands 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 Nedlands and the City of Perth, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. We're about 14 km from our Jandakot base, well inside the daily service runs.
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 Nedlands’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Spearwood sands. Quick-draining yellow sand where moisture rarely lingers; frequent short cycles and periodic coverage checks keep growth even across the limestone country.
Groundwater & bores. The superficial aquifer here typically supports domestic garden bores — a big running-cost saving over scheme water for lawns. Note bore users now share the standard 2-days-per-week roster and the 1 June - 31 August switch-off.
Rainfall — about 727mm a year. Averages about 727mm a year at the Swanbourne gauge with roughly 78% falling May-September — so the controller should step down through autumn and observe the 1 June - 31 August sprinkler switch-off.

From our Nedlands job book
Right-sizing the nozzles on a Nedlands system
A Nedlands owner reported a leaking micro riser (the upright pipe a sprinkler sits on) and blocked micro sprays. Our technician replaced the riser and the affected micro sprays, and capped off two pop-ups that were no longer needed — a small thing that matters, because a head watering an area that no longer needs it draws pressure away from the rest of the station.
The more useful work was the nozzles. They were swapped so the MP Rotators could run efficiently, which meant downsizing in several areas where the throw was longer than the space required.
We also suggested moving the start time earlier and reordering the zones in the controller so the lawns water first, which the owner was happy to adopt. Watering earlier loses less to evaporation and wind, and ordering the zones puts the thirstiest areas in the coolest part of the cycle.
What we actually find in Nedlands
We've completed 104 jobs in Nedlands. For this pattern check we read the 6 with the fullest, most recent technician notes — a capped sample, deliberately small and not random. 3 of them involved broken pop-ups and blocked nozzles, against 29% across the 1,781 Perth jobs sampled the same way. It tells our technician what to check first. It is not Nedlands's fault rate, and we don't publish it as one.

What Nedlands customers say
“Kevin was prompt on arrival, although our retic was old and in dis-repair he was a wizard on finding the wires, the solenoids, the pipes and managed to put everything back. He'd be a great detective! Very polite, nice to talk to and very helpful. Very happy to reference.”
