The SoCal Water$mart turf replacement program continues funding rebates for San Diego County homeowners converting live turf to artificial turf or drought-tolerant landscaping in 2026. Base rebate remains $3 per square foot with select water districts adding a $1 top-up.
Applications must be submitted before removing existing turf. Installations completed before pre-approval are not eligible. Pre-approval typically takes 2–4 weeks.
We help with the application paperwork on every install that qualifies. Funding levels reset with the water year (typically July 1), so apply early to avoid waitlists.
