What Options Are Available?

When it comes to replacing the natural grass, most areas require that a large portion of the area be drought resistant plants of some kind. Any paving or fill materials that are used must be permeable enough to allow for drainage. Ground cover materials include mulch, small rocks and sand. A combination of materials may be used as long as the list is approved by your local municipality.

One of the best ways to find out what materials are suitable to be used and for a particular geographic area is to call a local landscaping company. Whether you want to hire the work done or do it yourself, most will be more than happy to offer advice, especially if you will pass their name along to others or purchase part of the materials from their company. In some ways, the expense of hiring a landscaper will pay for itself when it comes to the construction and finished design.

 

Is Artificial Turf Acceptable?

Some cities in California have banned artificial grass because they are worried about the time needed for the ground to recover after artificial grass has been in place for several years. While others cities are turning to artificial grass to help make their area look great and save water. The concern about artificial grass started mostly within HOA’s but with persistent drought conditions across California, many HOA's have relaxed their rules. While cities and towns are slower to change, many are considering the benefits of artificial grass and the effect that the turf will have on their overall water usage.

 

Time and Money Basics

Each rebate is different depending on your local municipality. It’s important to call your local government directly and get the stipulations you must follow to apply for rebates.

You can also reduce some of your taxes if you sell your property in the future. If you make improvements which increase your home's market value and/or extend its useful life, you can add that to the cost basis of your home, which may reduce the capital gain when you sell your property.

Artificial grass rebates are designed to take the financial burden off of homeowners when it comes to remaining in compliance with new state laws and regulations pertaining to water usage. With the rebates in place, more and more residents are opting to remove their natural grass lawn and replace it with more drought friendly plants and materials. Homeowners and business owners do not have to install elaborate landscaping, they have several options available to them. Whether they choose artificial turf or a combination of plants and materials, the result is a beautiful lawn and a nice refund for staying in compliance.
