What Willetton is like to work in

Willetton spreads east from the Bull Creek boundary out toward Parkwood, built around Southlands Boulevarde and Willetton Senior High School, with High Road and Pinetree Gully Road carrying the traffic through it. It is a large, established suburb of detached family houses on solid blocks.

Size is the first thing that matters. A suburb with this many houses of a similar vintage produces a steady stream of the same handful of faults, and the one we see most is the private service line — the run from the meter at the front boundary to the house.

On a Willetton block that run is long. It crosses a verge, a front garden and often a driveway before it gets anywhere near a tap, and every metre of it is the property owner's responsibility. It is also completely invisible. Perth sand takes the water away without producing a puddle, so the fault announces itself as a number on a bill rather than a mess on a lawn.

The call we get most in Willetton

A jump in usage of the kind that makes people ring the water authority first. The house looks normal, the garden looks normal, and the meter will not stop turning with everything off. That is a textbook buried service line fault, and it is found by isolating the property section by section rather than by walking around looking for damp. What a jump in the bill usually means

Pools, retic and the extra pipe nobody counts

Willetton blocks carry more buried pipe than people expect. Beyond the house there is usually reticulation, garden taps at both ends of the property, and on a fair number of them a pool with a top-up line.

A pool is worth mentioning on its own, because a slow loss from a pool or its plumbing looks exactly like a household leak on the meter and is often blamed on the house for months. Splitting the two apart is one of the first things we do rather than one of the last.
