Take care to prepare your site correctly. This is very important because it would be very difficult (and in some instances, impossible) to correct problems at a later time.
Think about the cost to you in time, hassles and money to correct these problems. More detailed information can be obtained by requesting our very informative Turf Preparation brochure.
With water restrictions with us, it is very important to do all that you can to better use the water reserves you have. The main factor is the soil - establish turf in deep soil to allow the turf roots to penetrate deeply. Water deeply to force the root system down. Turf roots will be able to fossick for water for a longer period of time at a greater depth. Do not mow your turf too low especially in hot, dry, windy conditions, Apply water saving devices - Hydrocell, even though expensive, lasts for 8 -10 years. It needs to be incorporated into the soil during preparation. Many other water saving devices only last for several months so, even though less expensive, could be the most expensive in the long run. Do not allow your lawn to be attacked by lawn grubs as it will be difficult to bring it back to top class condition if you are limited with water usage or if the cooler months are coming on.
