Our nearest retic work is next door
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.
Our coverage of Reservoir is built on the neighbouring suburbs: 16 jobs in Kalamunda, 13 in Lesmurdie and 15 in Maida Vale. That's where the local system knowledge comes from, and it travels the few minutes across.
Verge planting and reticulation rules sit with the City of Kalamunda, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Reservoir is roughly 31 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.
Hills gravel: slopes, runoff and uneven sprinkler pressure
Soil — Darling Scarp gravels. Steep gravelly profiles mean sprinklers at the top and bottom of a run see different pressure — regulated heads and staged cycles even things out.
Groundwater & bores. Scarp geology — laterite over granite — puts reliable groundwater out of practical reach for most blocks; well-designed scheme-water reticulation with weather-based control is the sensible path.
Rainfall — about 1,093mm a year. Roughly 1093mm a year here (Bickley), with about 77% of it falling May-September — the long dry rest of the year is why controller programming and coverage checks pay for themselves.

Hear From Our Happy Customers...
"Professional, knowledgeable, and thorough"
"Tom and the PRE team did a terrific job fixing our complicated system. Everyone we interacted with was affable and highly competent. We will use them again as and when necessary. Highly recommend!"
"Excellent and efficient service."
"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."
"Our lawn was looking very sad due to bad and broken retic. Lots of broken sprinklers replaced and some troubleshooting and our lawn looks amazing. Thanks John and Perth Retic!"
Local reticulation questions
Not without a permit. Reservoir is in the City of Kalamunda. A person shall not plant a lawn or garden in a street, except pursuant to a permit issued by the council and then only in conformity with these by-laws.
Groundwater access around Reservoir is limited, so bores are less common here and often not the right answer. A properly zoned system with matched sprinklers and a modern controller gets excellent results on scheme water instead.
Reservoir sits on Darling Scarp gravels. On a slope that soil sheds water sideways before it soaks, and there are clay pockets underneath. Your technician confirms the profile on site before programming anything — Reservoir blocks vary street to street.
Water Corporation sets Reservoir'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 Bickley station averages about 122 mm of rain in September and 67 mm in October, well above central Perth's 80 mm, so gardens here stay wetter into spring.
Repairs aren't quoted: you book one, and the technician diagnoses and fixes it on site, most faults in the same visit. If parts need ordering, we tell you the cost first.
