Turf Removal & the Albuquerque Xeriscape Rebate
Grass is expensive to keep alive in the high desert, and a lot of Albuquerque homeowners are trading it for low-water landscaping. We remove old turf and convert the space to a desert-friendly design with rock, native plants, and drip irrigation. We also plan the work with the Albuquerque water authority (ABCWUA) turf-removal and xeriscape rebate in mind so you can pursue it if you qualify.
How turf removal works
We strip out the existing grass and roots, grade and prep the soil, and lay the groundwork for whatever comes next, whether that is a gravel and native-plant design, planting beds, or a hardscaped sitting area. Proper removal matters because leftover roots and runners can come back, so we do not just skim the surface and cover it.
Planning around the ABCWUA rebate
The Albuquerque water authority offers a rebate for replacing turf with qualifying xeriscape. The program has its own square-footage rules, plant and coverage requirements, and an application process, and those terms change over time. We design with common requirements in mind and keep the documentation you would typically need, but the rebate is issued by ABCWUA, not by us, so always confirm current terms with them.
