Existing garden audit

Add your audit photos
Every element you have given a verdict — plants, paved areas, structures, retic heads — plus the lifted pavers showing the base, and the existing controller program before you change it.
Every significant plant
Everything over knee height. Species or a photo reference, condition out of five, and the verdict. Most established Perth plants over 1.5 m are KEEP or REMOVE, not RELOCATE.
| Plant | Condition /5 | Years left | Cost to keep | Cost to replace | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Every paved and poured area
One row per area. Judge the base, not the surface — say which you are rating. "REPLACE the base, KEEP the pavers" is a legitimate verdict, so write it that way.
| Area | Condition | Years left | Cost to keep | Cost to replace | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Every structure and edge
Retaining walls, fences, patios, sheds, decks, pool barriers, garden edging, steps. Anything built rather than grown.
| Structure or edge | Condition | Years left | Cost to keep | Cost to replace | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
The retic system, station by station
Never write "retic works". One row per station, plus rows for the controller, the mainline and the bore or tap if you have one.
| Station | Condition and faults | Years left | Cost to keep | Cost to replace | Verdict | Reason |
