Call (08) 6263 4644 to book a repair, or book a site assessment for a new system.

Mostly housing and facility irrigation maintenance

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.

Our Noranda history runs 30 jobs deep, and the pattern is clear: controller work, servicing & tune-ups and bore & pump work lead the list. 11 of those jobs are from the last two years.

Verge planting and reticulation rules sit with the City of Bayswater, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Noranda is roughly 26 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.

Clay-loam soil: slow to soak, prone to runoff

Soil — Pinjarra Plain clay-loams. Heavier alluvial clay-loams that take water slowly and can waterlog in winter — cycle-and-soak programming stops runoff, and hydrozoning suits mixed lawn-and-bed gardens.

Groundwater & bores. Mixed geology makes this variable bore country; success cases exist nearby but aren't guaranteed. Smart controllers and seasonal reprogramming deliver dependable savings regardless of water source.

Rainfall — about 718mm a year. Expect ~718mm annually per the Perth Metro gauge, heavily winter-weighted (~79% May-Sep): summer is effectively rain-free, so summer run times carry the garden.

From our Noranda job book

A mismatched coil on a Noranda system

A Noranda system had none of its stations working, and the cause was a mismatch between the controller and the valves. The controller sends AC to every station, which is what a conventional mains-powered controller does — but one valve was fitted with a DC latching coil, the type used with battery-operated controllers.

The two are not interchangeable: a latching coil expects a brief pulse to flip it open or closed, and a continuous AC supply will not operate it. Our technician replaced the controller, rewired the valve manifold back to a standard configuration and swapped the DC latching coil for a conventional one, then programmed the unit.

Mixed control types on one system are a real trap, usually the residue of a battery timer fitted at some point to work around a wiring fault.

"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."

Local reticulation questions

Yes, if the verge follows the City's Verge Greening Guidelines. Noranda is in the City of Bayswater. If you do require irrigation, Water Corporation recommends sub-surface drip irrigation. Note that your watering days don't come from the council; that roster is set state-wide.

It depends on your exact spot — groundwater access around Noranda varies, sometimes street to street. We can assess your block's suitability, and if a bore doesn't stack up, a well-zoned scheme-water system with matched nozzles is the next best water saver.

Garden bores in Perth→

Noranda sits on Pinjarra Plain clay-loams. That soil holds water well but takes it in slowly, so sprinklers can easily apply it faster than the ground absorbs. The most common thing we get booked for in Noranda is controller work, 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.

Noranda is about 26 km from our Jandakot depot and sits on a run our vehicles work weekly, so most repairs here are booked within days, not weeks. Repairs aren't quoted — you book a repair and the technician diagnoses and fixes on site, most faults in the same visit, with the parts already on the van.

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 Noranda.
