Your local Secret Harbour reticulation team

One call covers everything watering-related: mains reticulation, controllers, solenoids, wiring faults, and bore pumps if your property runs on groundwater.

Verge planting and reticulation rules sit with the City of Rockingham, while watering days come from the Water Corporation sprinkler roster, not the council — worth checking both before any verge retic work. Our depot in Jandakot puts Secret Harbour about 35 km away, comfortably inside our everyday coverage.

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 Secret Harbour’s soil and water mean for your retic?

Soil — Quindalup coastal sands. Water races through Quindalup dune sand, so one long soak runs straight past the roots — two short cycles on the same watering day, plus soil wetters, are the proven local approach.

Groundwater & bores. This is favourable ground for garden bores — sand all the way to the water table in most streets. Bore-fed retic avoids scheme water charges, though the same 2-day roster and winter switch-off govern when it can run.

Rainfall — about 865mm a year. About 865mm a year (Halls Head), with ~80% arriving May-September — a smart controller with seasonal adjust handles the swing, and winter watering is largely unnecessary even before the ban.

From our Secret Harbour job book

Missing emitters across a Secret Harbour system

A Secret Harbour system was tested across six stations, and the pattern in the fault list is worth noting: as many components were missing as were broken. Two nozzles and two micro sprays were simply absent, along with a broken pressure-compensating stake, two faulty sprinklers, a broken sprinkler and a blocked nozzle.

A leak in the poly was also repaired. Missing emitters are worse than broken ones.

A broken head still restricts flow to some degree; an empty fitting is a fully open outlet that dumps water at the maximum the line can supply, starving everything downstream on that station. If part of a garden has quietly stopped performing, it is worth walking the beds while a station runs and counting what should be there — the fault is often a gap rather than a failure.

What we actually find in Secret Harbour

Of our 7 Secret Harbour jobs we read the 5 with the fullest, most recent notes — capped, and not a random sample. 3 involved controller and timer faults and 3 involved mainline leaks and split poly, against 14% and 33% across the 1,781 Perth jobs sampled the same way. Counts overlap, because one job can carry both.

Reticulation Secret Harbour FAQs

Yes for lawn and garden; other materials need a written application. Secret Harbour is in the City of Rockingham. Acceptable materials are allowed to cover 50% of the verge or 10m2, whichever is the greater.

Verge rules by council

Generally yes — Secret Harbour 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.

Garden bores in Perth

Secret Harbour sits on Quindalup coastal sands. There is almost no reserve moisture in that profile, so even coverage matters more here than almost anywhere. The most common thing we get booked for in Secret Harbour is controller work, so that's where the technician starts. We set run times to deliver about 10mm on each of your two rostered days, and split the run into two cycles inside the same watering window where the soil needs it.

Perth soil types & watering

The same two-day Water Corporation roster as the rest of Perth — Secret Harbour is no exception, and bores are on it too. Because the roster keys off your street number, two houses on the same street can be on different days — worth checking rather than copying a neighbour.

Repairs aren't quoted — every system and fault is different, so you book a repair rather than a quote. The technician diagnoses and fixes on site, most faults in the same visit. If a larger job needs parts ordered, we'll tell you the cost before we proceed.
