FEES
Below is a brief outline of our charges for retic repairs in Perth's Northern Suburbs.
It's difficult to quote many retic service jobs as there are so many factors that can affect the time required to repair some of the retic issues, but the rates shown below should serve as a good guideline.
For all new reticulation installations we would recommend a site survey and quote in all cases.
Retic Repair and Service Fees - Perth
Standard Call out fee $90+gst
Standard Hourly rates $90+gst per hour per retic technician charged in 15 minute increments. (Min charge in all cases $100+gst). When available, we will send two guys out to your job, and on this basis, we generally expect to finish the job in half the time or less, meaning your end cost will actually be the same or less. When problem solving - Two heads are always better than one!
Quotes for retic installs are free, as are general upgrade works, but quotes for repair & service work are unfortunately not. There is usually a degree of troubleshooting required for an accurate quotation, for which our standard charges apply.
Emergency retic repair call out fees
An emergency call out fee of $150+gst will apply in some cases if we are asked to drop what we are doing to attend, or if we are asked to attend on a Sunday or late at night. The hourly rate for emergency call outs is $100+gst per hour
Retic solenoid valve locating and broken retic wire tracing
We use Armada Pro retic wire tracers to locate faulty retic valves and broken wires, so we don't have to dig up half of your garden in the process. This equipment is very expensive and to cover this we have to apply a surcharge of $50+gst for the use of the equipment.
