Water leaks waste water and waste your money too.

Don't ignore a water leak in your retic as you could be wasting a considerable amount of water (if you have an ongoing leak) which you will be paying for in your water use with the Water Corp.

If you have severe water leak, it might be worth putting in a water leak allowance form with the Water Corp, but please note that you can only submit one every 5 years, it must be submitted by a Waterwise Plumber or Waterwise Irrigator, and your site must have a watermark approved isolation valve, backflow preventer and watermark approved master solenoid.

Mr Retic is an a Waterwise Irrigator and can attend to your leaks and submit a leak allowance if you need it. Send us a contact form on our website www.mrretic.com.au to book in a job, or send us a DM.

Did you know…

“Modern high pressure water cleaners and pressure washers use 6-7 litres of water per minute. A standard garden hose uses 25 litres per minute." What a difference! That's why WaterCorp suggests that high pressure cleaners can be more efficient than a hose for specific purposes.

I’m a sprinkler enthusiast because I love going with the flow.

Love a good action shot!!

The easiest way to find broken nozzles & sprinklers is to pop the system on and run around with a bag of nozzles to replace the broken or missing heads. Once the broken head is replaced, often the new leaks appear... regularly checking for broken sprinklers and missing sprinkler heads is the best way to keep your retic in good shape.

If you are looking for a quote for your new retic / lawn job, sending us all the relevant information, including images of the area, measurements and existing retic infrastructure (eg, existing piping / controller & if they are working) will help us get a quote to you quicker.

Unfortunately as Dave is super busy with retic repairs and new installs, we don't do free quotes here at Mr Retic. We can book a job to come and do a measure and quote, which will incur a call out fee.

When we quote, we are giving you the job as per what you have described, so to avoid disapontment (or additional parts/time charges) please remember to give us as much info as you can.

If you are looking for a new retic expert to take care of your lawn and garden watering requirements, don't hesitate to contact us... just make sure you are in our service area first :-)

I get asked all the time: “What sprinklers do you recommend for garden beds?”

My answer? Spectrum 360 drippers - almost every time. They’re adjustable, reliable, and perfect for Perth’s conditions. Whether it’s a veggie patch or a ground cover zone, these little legends just work.

💡 I’ve shared my go-to setup and why these drippers are worth the extra few bucks.

Irrigation can be quite draining, but it’s a waterful task!

Lawn Install in Kinross - this area was previously covered in woodchips and sand that kept blowing everywhere, and the client wanted to grass the area.

We were unable to access the main reticulation system to put reticulation in this area, so we installed a tap timer on the garden tap that we connected the sprinklers to, so we could keep the lovely new grass well watered.
