Get up to $3,000 Back! Design Your Dream, WaterWise Yard with Terra Dura Landscapes

Water Scarcity Meets Smart Savings in Central Texas

Austin is known for its incredible growth, but we also know that managing our water resources is an urgent ecological and community issue. During the hot summer months, outdoor irrigation can account for approximately 50% of a home's water usage.

The solution isn't a barren, rock-filled yard (a common misconception about Xeriscaping). The real solution is WaterWise Landscaping, a beautiful, sustainable, and effective way to manage your outdoor space. And the best part? Austin Water will help pay for it.

Your Blueprint to Savings: The WaterWise Landscape Rebate

Austin Water offers a generous WaterWise Landscape Rebate of up to $3,000 for single-family residential customers who convert high-water-use turf grass into native and adapted plant beds.

This isn't just about saving water; it's about making a significant, long-term investment in your home that dramatically reduces your monthly water bill and maintenance costs.

How the Rebate Works (And Where We Come In):

  1. Pre-Approval is Key: The most crucial step is applying for pre-approval with Austin Water before removing any grass or purchasing materials. This locks in your spot and ensures your plan is eligible.

  2. Design and Build: This is where Terra Dura Landscapes steps in. We specialize in designing and building custom outdoor living spaces—from beautiful, low-water Xeriscapes to functional patios, fire features, and shade structures. We focus on using native and drought-tolerant Texas plants that meet the rebate requirements.

  3. Documentation & Reimbursement: Once the project is complete, you submit photos and your itemized, paid-in-full receipts/invoices (which we provide!) to Austin Water. You are then reimbursed up to the qualified amount.

Beyond the Grass: Designing a Lush, Low-Maintenance Utopia

The Xeriscape design philosophy is perfectly suited for Central Texas:

  • Aesthetics and Diversity: A WaterWise yard is anything but boring. By using native plants like Texas Sage, Agave, and Lantana, we create visually stunning and diverse landscapes that thrive in our local climate and support local wildlife.

  • Low Maintenance: Once established, a Xeriscape requires minimal upkeep compared to a traditional lawn. This means less time spent mowing and fertilizing, and more time relaxing in your custom outdoor space.

  • Hardscape Integration: We seamlessly integrate low-water plantings with custom hardscape elements (patios, walkways, and seating areas). This reduces the area of water-intensive turf while enhancing the usability and functionality of your yard.

Ready to Transform Your Yard and Your Budget?

Your outdoor space should be a haven, not a headache. Let our team of landscape architects and horticulturists design an ecologically sound, visually stunning, and water-efficient landscape that not only looks beautiful but also saves you money.
