Spring is a good time to install a new lawn.

How to get a Watering Exemption – What you need to do?

If you are establishing a new lawn or garden, you may apply for a temporary exemption from the sprinkler roster that applies to your area. New lawn can refer to roll-on lawn, runners, shredded lawn and/or seed.
If you are granted an exemption in Perth between the dates of 1 October to 31 March, you will be allowed to water your new lawn/garden three times a day for up to 42 days from the day of planting.  A 35 day exemption applies for application exemptions granted between 1 April to 30 September.
