Your local The Spectacles 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 and streetscape watering rules sit with the City of Kwinana within the Perth Metropolitan Region — worth checking before verge retic work, and we can advise on what your council allows. The grey sands here drain instantly and fight re-wetting in summer, so scheduling little and often — with a wetter twice a year — is what works. Groundwater under this part of the coastal plain is generally accessible, so a garden bore (new or revived) is a practical way to water without paying scheme rates. Water Corporation's roster and winter sprinkler ban still apply to bores. Averages about 750mm a year at the Medina Research Centre gauge with roughly 77% falling May-September — so the controller should step down through autumn and observe the 1 June - 31 August sprinkler switch-off. We're about 14 km from our Jandakot base, well inside the daily service runs.
We’re Waterwise-endorsed and Irrigation Australia members, every job is backed by a full warranty, and we’re Perth’s most-reviewed retic specialist (rated 4.7 from 230 Google reviews).

What does The Spectacles’s soil and water mean for your retic?
Soil — Bassendean sands. Grey Bassendean sand is Perth's most water-repellent soil — water beads and runs off dry patches. Wetting agents plus short, frequent cycles are close to mandatory for an even lawn.
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 750mm a year. Around 750mm falls annually (Medina Research Centre data), close to 77% of it May-September; gardens rely almost entirely on reticulation from November to March, when scheduling accuracy matters most.

Hear From Our Happy Customers...
"Craig advised me of his arrival time and was spot on! Looked at all areas that were a problem then set about carrying out repairs. On completion, he described all areas that were at fault and described to me what he had done. Craig was highly professional and obviously knowledgeable in his craft. I was completely satisfied with the job well done and would gladly recommend him and Perth Reticulation Experts. The name is well deserved."
"Justin was great - thorough, professional, and friendly. He was dedicated to resolving my irrigation issues."
"Professional service."
"We had Justin over a couple of times this week due to some major repairs needed for our system. Super patient and stayed for longer than was initially expected to get our system up and running again. Been using Perth Retic for a number of years and I’ve never been disappointed."
"Professional & efficient. Tom was great communicating honestly. The required repairs & replacement parts carried out promptly. Paving was also replace better than before. Will be using them when we tackle the backyard."
Reticulation The Spectacles FAQs
Generally yes — The Spectacles sits over accessible groundwater, which is why garden bores are common here. Bore water isn't metered like scheme water, so a bore can dramatically cut the running cost of keeping lawns and gardens alive. We install, service and repair bores and pumps; ask us whether your block is a good candidate. Groundwater under this part of the coastal plain is generally accessible, so a garden bore (new or revived) is a practical way to water without paying scheme rates. Water Corporation's roster and winter sprinkler ban still apply to bores.
The grey sands here drain instantly and fight re-wetting in summer, so scheduling little and often — with a wetter twice a year — is what works. We factor this into zoning, run times and sprinkler selection on every The Spectacles job — it's the difference between a green lawn and a water bill.
Our service vehicles work the Perth metro area every week, so most The Spectacles repairs are booked within days, not weeks. We don't quote repairs over the phone — the technician diagnoses on site and fixes most faults in the same visit.
