Thanks Angela for letting us know you were happy with the supply and installation of your new reticulation controller at your house in Armadale.
One of our specialist electricians installed a new 6 station reticulation controller. It has a back-up battery and a built in transformer hardwired into mains power and the installation of a multi core tail to solenoid location in ground.
If your reticulation controller needs replacing, call Troy on 9246 0111.
We recently drilled a modern submersible water bore in the Perth suburb of Waikiki.
Subsequently Jack attended to connect the bore to the client’s exsisting reticulation system and disconnect from mains water. He then installed a tap and pressure release valve for our Waikiki client. A tap using bore water is useful and it is also usually high volume.
You can see the PRV in this picture on the vertical PVC piping of the tap. The PRV is a safeguard against ‘deadheading’ the bore pump.

One of our customers in City Beach was reporting low pressure on his garden bore
We sent our reticulation guy who said it is popping the overload and it was working when he first got there,
So we sent our electrician who found the capacitor in the start box had melted as you can see in this picture.
Burnt Capacitor
So he swapped the capacitor and the relay and all is working.

Five Star Google Review
“The team at Virgin Bores were simply fantastic and good people to deal with.
From David, who made the quote process painless and kept us informed along the way, to the drilling crews and Craig the electrician – they are genuine people who care about their work and obviously felt a lot of loyalty and respect for the company. When things got a little stressful towards the end, Troy came through with great communication and responsiveness.
Highly recommend this family feel company”

Green access lids at the top of submersible water bores.
We drill modern submersible water bores in the Perth metro area from 18 metres and as deep as 40 metres.
Drilling the submersible water bore normally takes about a day and as you see here the top of the bore is covered by a green access lid just surface level of the ground so it can then be covered by lawn. Invisible!
We can also drill in a driveway and cover.
Important to keep a record of where the water bore is located just in case it needs repair in the future.

Most commonly Perth water bores are connected to the clients existing reticulation. We are able to install a manual tap if requested. The bore tap is usually high pressure and can be used for hand watering and numbers of other things.
People need to realise its only irrigation quality water, not “tap” drinking quality water from the scheme.
Handy bore tap
Can I have a tap from my bore? Sure you can.
We have installed 2 bore taps this week.
Above, Tom installed a brass tap and pressure release valve to this new 22 metre deep submersible bore we just drilled in Morley.
Tom also installed another one to this new 29 metre submersible bore we just completed in Quinns Rocks(above). We install a larger than normal tap to fit a bigger 20mm hose to accommodate the extra flow from a bore.
We look after this old style well in the Southern Perth suburb of Applecross hidden in the large back yard of a quarter acre block.
Applecross old style well
The old well was dug in the 1950’s and has 4 concrete well liners with a three horsepower pump at the bottom of the well.
It has a hydro indexing valve which is very usual to see in a Perth reticulation system. Even the curious magpie has stopped to have a look.
Fimco Hydro Indexing Valve seen at front of picture
The system uses 2 zones one at the front and one at the rear. Instead of solenoid valves it uses the hydro indexing valves to change from one zone to another each time the system is turned on.
These larger blocks in older suburbs provide a place for children to play and a safe haven for birds and wild-life.
We have had twenty years experience repairing old wells in Applecross and the surrounding Perth suburbs of Ardross and Mount Pleasant. Call us on 9246 0111 or check out our website HERE
Abundant supply of water in Applecross garden

Replace Water Bore Pump Perth
Submersible pumps are very reliable and normally don’t require any pre-emptive maintenance or repair. However, on occasion, they may be susceptible to lighting induction or fusion. It is best to get a specialist bore pump technician or electrician to repair or replace your submersible pump. It will save time and money when you do the job properly. We can also advise on whether any bore pump motor damage may be covered in your household insurance if you have fusion coverage.
Replace Water Bore Pump Carramar
Here we are replacing a 1.1 kW single phase submersible pump in the Perth suburb of Carramar. We also replaced 28 metres of downhole electrical cable with special rubberized bore cable and stainless steel draw wire in this 34 metre deep Carramar garden water bore.
Our specialist bore electrician will then return to install a junction box and test. Once the pump is up and running we will connect back to the reticulation and make sure all is OK.

“That’s the good part of it…that’s your bore water”
Virgin Bore’s most experienced driller, George, is always pleased to see the first rush of bore water after drilling a water bore. Virgin Bores is always happy to deliver a plentiful supply of crystal clear water for their Perth customers.
Immediately after drilling a garden bore to the required depth, the bore is air developed as seen here. Even before the submersible pump is installed. Most garden bores drilled in Perth are drilled by the rotary mud method.
To clean out the drilling muds and “fines” we pump compressed air down inside the bore casing. At this stage air alone forces the groundwater up to the surface.

A .75 kW submersible motor was used for the Brabham water bore.
In the next few days after the drilling the electrician and reticulation team connect the new water bore to existing reticulation and bore box.

As pictured, we also supplied and installed a tap and pressure release valve.
