Southern California rebates & Programs
Southern California homeowners have access to some of the best water-saving rebate programs in the state, designed to make upgrading your landscape more affordable and rewarding.
Through regional programs like SoCal Water$mart, Be Water Wise, and local water district incentives, homeowners can earn rebates for removing water-intensive turf, upgrading irrigation systems, and installing drought-tolerant landscaping.
These residential programs are meant to reduce water use, lower monthly bills, and help homeowners transition to landscapes that actually make sense for our climate — while getting money back for doing it.

Turf Removal = The Biggest Savings
​The Turf Replacement Program is hands-down the
most popular rebate — and for good reason.
Most Southern California water districts currently offer rebates per square foot of grass removed, typically ranging from $2 to $3+ per square foot, depending on your water agency and available funding.
What that can look like:
-
500 sq ft of lawn → $1,000–$1,500 back
-
1,000 sq ft of lawn → $2,000–$3,000 back
-
Larger yards can qualify for even more
For many homeowners, rebates can cover a significant portion of the landscape cost, making turf removal far more affordable than expected.
