“LADWP's turf replacement rebate program pays $3–4.50/sqft to remove lawn. On a 1,000 sqft front lawn, that's $3,000–4,500 in rebates. Combined with the long-term water savings, drought-tolerant landscaping pays for itself in 3–5 years in the Valley. The rebate application needs to be submitted before removing the lawn, not after. We handle this paperwork for clients.”
DWP turf replacement rebates require pre-approval before removing lawn. Apply at ladwp.com, receive approval, then remove the turf and document the square footage for your rebate claim.
