Maintenance
Irrigation systems break, it happens,
we can fix and improve them.
Regular maintenance helps prevent small issues from escalating into costly repairs. For example, leaks, clogged sprinklers, or poorly calibrated timers can lead to uneven irrigation or wasted water.
Once your irrigation system is up and running, keeping it in optimal condition is essential. Proper maintenance ensures your system operates efficiently, reduces water waste, and minimizes long-term costs.
Over time, even minor problems can result in higher water use or under-watered plants, which can affect your garden or crop yields. BD Water takes a proactive approach to maintenance.
Our goal is to catch issues early, fix them promptly, and keep your system in top shape. Whether you have a small farm or a large commercial irrigation system, we tailor our maintenance services to meet your needs.

Why Maintenance Matters
Western Australia’s hot, dry climate can place additional pressure on irrigation systems, making routine maintenance critical to ensure everything runs smoothly. At BD Water, our maintenance services cover every aspect of your irrigation system, ensuring each component is working efficiently.
Routine Inspections
Our team conducts regular inspections to check for leaks, malfunctioning sprinklers, or clogged pipes.
Early detection can prevent system over-pressurisation or under-performance that could affect water distribution.

Seasonal Adjustments
Different times of the year have different irrigation requirements. We adjust your system to match seasonal changes, and run maintenance checks in preparation for the winter sprinkler ban lift, to get your system is summer-ready.
Long-Term Care Plans
We provide ongoing long-term care plans for specific clients with large or complex irrigation systems. Knowing your system will receive the regular care it needs can ensure your system runs smoothly year-round, bringing your business peace of mind.
Emergency Repairs
Sometimes, despite regular maintenance, things go wrong. Maybe you notice a sudden drop in water pressure, or perhaps your sprinklers stop working altogether. In such cases, we offer emergency repair services to get your irrigation system back up and running quickly.
Our technicians will troubleshoot the issue, whether it’s a damaged pipe, a dry-running pump, or any other irrigation malfunction. We carry a wide range of replacement parts, which means we can often fix the issue on the spot. If more extensive repairs are needed, we’ll develop a plan to restore your system as soon as possible.

The smallest details
make the biggest difference.
The advantages of keeping your irrigation system well-maintained go beyond just saving water and money. A well-functioning system promotes healthier plants and landscapes. For commercial property owners, that means a vibrant and green lawn. For agricultural clients, it means increased crop or produce yields.
By preventing breakdowns and addressing small issues before they become major problems, regular maintenance extends the life of your equipment. This reduces the need for expensive replacements and helps ensure your system will continue to serve you well for years to come.
Customer Satisfaction
Our clients are happy, due to ongoing communication, and a high quality standard. We believe in building lasting relationships with our clients, and that means being there for you long after the initial installation or repair.
We don’t just walk away after performing maintenance. BD Water offers ongoing support to answer any questions or provide additional help as needed. If you have concerns about your system’s performance, we’re always available to offer advice, make adjustments, or troubleshoot issues.

Upgrades and Optimisation
Sometimes, routine maintenance isn’t enough, and your irrigation system might benefit from an upgrade. Whether you’re looking to modernise your system with the latest technology or need to expand your irrigation, BD Water can help.
We can recommend upgrades to increase the efficiency and longevity of your system. For example, smart controllers can help automate your watering schedule, optimising water use. Similarly, upgrading to more efficient pumps or replacing outdated components can reduce your energy usage and lower operating costs.
Water Savings
At BD Water, we’re committed to saving water whenever possible. Western Australia is known for its arid climate and water restrictions, so it’s crucial to use water efficiently. Our maintenance services are designed to help you minimise water waste while maximising the benefits of your irrigation system.
By ensuring that your system is calibrated correctly and running efficiently, we help you reduce your environmental footprint. Additionally, we can upgrade your system with smart controllers, rain sensors, and other water-saving technologies, further enhancing its sustainability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When should I water?
You should set your system to water on your scheduled days. The optimum watering time is in the early morning. This allows the water to reach the roots without being evaporated or blown away. It’s also effective in preventing fungus or disease that is often caused by water sitting overnight on plants.
How does a bore and irrigation system work?
A water pump draws water out from the water table or permeable materials in the soil and into the pipe of the bore, which then pushes water to the surface. It can be connected to a tank or directly tied in to the irrigation system.
The water table is a static level layer, usually at shallower depths, than can dry up, causing damage to the bore. This is why we drill past the water table and into the permeable materials at the bottom of the aquifers, to get a more consistent and better quality supply. The screens placed at the bottom of the bore construction filter the river sands to get the water into the bore.
Can I prevent the staining from my bore?
Although Iron Bacteria can never be completely eliminated, as it lives naturally in many of the formations and aquifers, it can be regulated using a range of low impact, non-toxic chemicals to remove the bulk of bacterial substrate. This in turn reduces the amount of visible stain and odour.
Frequency of application is determined by the severity of the subterranean infection and subsequent staining. Existing staining can then be removed by a number of commercially available compounds such as X-Fe.
Other methods of stain prevention involve the design of your station spray coverage, minimising over-spray and infrastructure obstruction will reduce the impact of the staining while reducing the cost of stain removal considerably.
We offer decontamination and restoration services for problematic bores as well as treatment and filtration solutions.
Although iron bacteria can make water unsightly and cause an unpleasant taste and odour; there is currently no health risk associated with iron bacteria. There are also no active health concerns regarding iron presence in bore or drinking water.
Outside of visible staining, iron bacteria contributes to a great deal of system strain, such as pump corrosion, flow restriction, poor system operation and unpleasant working conditions for servicemen. If left to develop, it can lead to system failure, requiring costly repair or even pump replacement.
How much is a consultation and quote?
Most of our consultations and quotes are free of charge. We conduct consultation with you, generally on site, to get to know you and understand your water needs, then provide a free quote.
In some cases, specialised research, testing or designing is required before we can provide a formal quote for the works. This includes bore drilling consultations and irrigation where a large system design is required. In these cases, we will discuss the costs of these services before doing anything, and if you’d like to go ahead, we can help you get a comprehensive solution, tailored to your needs.
