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 The Spectacles is built on the neighbouring suburbs: 12 jobs in Anketell, 14 in Bertram and 29 in Wandi. 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 Kwinana, 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 236 Google reviews.

Grey Bassendean sand: fast-draining and water-repellent

Soil — Bassendean sands. The grey sands here drain instantly and fight re-wetting in summer, so splitting one watering into two cycles inside the same window — with a wetter twice a year — is what works.

Groundwater & bores. 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.

Rainfall — about 750mm a year. 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.

"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

Check with the City first. The Spectacles is in the City of Kwinana. The sprinkler roster is a Water Corporation matter, so it doesn't change at the council boundary.

Verge rules by council→

Generally yes — The Spectacles sits over accessible groundwater, which is why garden bores are common here. What varies is depth, yield and how much iron comes up with the water — all worth checking on your block before committing. We install, service and repair bores and pumps.

Garden bores in Perth→

The Spectacles sits on Bassendean sands. That is Perth's least water-retentive sand, and the one most likely to repel water once dry. Your technician confirms the profile on site before programming anything — The Spectacles blocks vary street to street.

Perth soil types & watering→

The Spectacles is about 14 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.
