New Lawn Installation in Perth
New turf preparation and installation for strata, commercial, and residential properties that need a clean, durable lawn reset.
A new lawn is only as good as the preparation under it. In Perth, that means dealing with sandy soils, compacted traffic areas, failed reticulation, and the turf variety that actually suits the way the property is used.
Swan Gardens Evolution installs new lawns for strata common areas, commercial frontages, and residential properties where the existing turf has failed or the site needs a clean reset. We prepare the base, lay the turf, and build the establishment care into the maintenance schedule so the lawn is not abandoned after installation day.
If the lawn has stopped recovering between visits, replacement may be the smarter long-term fix.

What affects cost
Quoted on the property, not a price list.
New lawn installation is quoted after a site walk because the preparation matters as much as the turf. A clean, level, well-conditioned base installs faster and establishes better than turf laid over compacted or uneven ground. We quote the preparation, turf supply, installation, and establishment care separately so you can see what the lawn needs before it goes down. For strata and commercial properties, the establishment period is usually built into the regular maintenance schedule so the new lawn is watched closely while it settles in.

FAQ
Common questions about new lawn installation.
Do you prepare the soil before laying new turf?
Yes — preparation is the job. We remove failed turf where needed, level the area, improve the soil, and apply starter products before the new lawn goes down. Turf laid over poor soil rarely performs well for long.
What turf type should we use in Perth?
It depends on the site's sun, shade, traffic, reticulation, and budget. Couch and kikuyu suit many high-use Perth lawns, while softer or more shade-tolerant options may suit residential and protected areas. We'll recommend the variety after walking the site.
Can you replace failed strata common lawns?
Yes — strata lawn resets are a good fit for us because we can install the new turf and then maintain it through the establishment period. That continuity matters in the first few weeks.
How long before the new lawn can be used?
Most new turf needs a few weeks of careful watering and light use before it can handle normal foot traffic. We'll give you a practical establishment plan based on the turf and the season.
Do you handle reticulation issues?
We'll flag reticulation problems during the site walk and can coordinate repairs or adjustments before the turf goes down. New lawn without reliable watering is a false economy in Perth.
