If you are here are you already know that the orangey, brown stains on your walls, roofs and paving is coming from your bore.
You may have a new bore and are seeing light yellow stain accumulate quickly or you may have an old bore with existing deep, ingrained stain.
Your bore is compromised by iron and calcium.
This is guide is based on the average iron bore water treatment system in Perth.
Step 1: Site Consult & Water Samples
We carry out a site consult to collect information that impacts the design of your bore water treatment system with a focus on these factors:
- End water use
- Building & irrigation layout
- Plumbing & electrical access
- Bore pump flow rate & pressure
We take bore water samples for external laboratory analysis which provides the mineral profile as a basis of your bore water treatment system design.

Cost: $190 – Site Consult
+ $240 – External laboratory water analysis (not applicable if you already have your raw bore water data).
Step 2: Design & Approvals
It takes 4 business days to design a bore water treatment system that effectively reduces iron levels and is fits into the layout of your home.
Minor adjustments are made and the quote is approved during this time.

Step 4: Maintenance
Once a month the chlorine needs replenishment. This costs about $20 per month if you do it.
Your bore water treatment system needs an annual service to backflush and rinse accumulated iron from the sand filter. We do this every August, to prepare your system for summer. This costs approximately $275 given the chlorine has been replenished regularly.
We can replenish your chlorine or you can do it yourself.
