Water-wise landscape · Turf conversion and the rebate

Landscape design and plan

A drawn plan on its own. You keep it, and you can build it with anybody.

One flat fee to find out what is wrong. You are told it on the phone before anyone is dispatched, and it comes off the job if you hire us. Read our Plain Terms

What the work is

A measured plan with plants at mature size, irrigation zoning, surfacing and levels. It exists as a document rather than as a step in our sales process.

Buy it, take it to three contractors, and get comparable quotes for the first time. That is the actual value of a plan and the reason we sell it separately.

What is included

  • A site visit with measurements
  • A drawn plan, plants at mature size
  • Irrigation zoning and a surfacing schedule
  • A plant schedule you can price anywhere
  • A copy formatted for an association design review submission

What is not

  • Construction
  • Approvals
  • Revisions beyond two rounds
  • Any requirement to build it with us

Take it to other people

A plan you cannot take elsewhere is not a plan, it is a proposal. Ours is drawn so any competent contractor can price it.

What to ask anyone quoting this, us included

  • Do I own this plan?
  • Are the plants drawn at mature size?
  • Can another contractor price from this?

What we can show you in writing

Every line traces to a document we read in full. The number after a sentence points to the research below.

  • WCWCD requires 50% living plant cover at maturity in the converted area, counting each tree as 350 sq ft and each shrub or perennial as 35 sq ft, and existing trees inside the conversion area count.1
  • There is no approved plant list for the rebate; the program does not dictate species, only mature coverage.1
