Expert Lawn & Turf Installation for Mandurah & Peel Region Homes

Stop Dreaming, Start Stepping: Your Perfect Lawn Starts Here

From Bare Earth to Lush Lawn: Our Seamless lawn Installation Process 

Transforming your outdoor space shouldn’t be a chore—it should be exciting! At Family Tree Landscaping, we manage the entire process, ensuring a stress-free transition from bare earth to a vibrant, functional lawn.

We begin with crucial site preparation, including clearing and precise levelling to establish the perfect foundation for healthy turf growth. The next critical step is choosing the right turf; we guide you through selecting the ideal variety—whether it’s natural grass suited to the local climate and use, or high-quality, low-maintenance artificial turf—that perfectly matches your lifestyle and aesthetic.

Finally, our professional installation team lays the turf with meticulous care and simultaneously integrates a reliable reticulation (irrigation) system. This ensures your new lawn receives the exact amount of water it needs, guaranteeing long-term health and vitality. By handling the entire project, including the essential watering infrastructure, we deliver not just a new lawn, but a sustainable outdoor space you can enjoy for years to come.

    We can help you choose the right turf

    The Perth and Peel region’s climate—with its hot, dry summers and often sandy soil—means that choosing the wrong turf variety is an expensive mistake. At Family Tree Landscaping, we don’t just lay grass; we match the perfect species to your environment and lifestyle. We assess critical factors like sun exposure, shade cover, soil type, and the amount of foot traffic (kids and pets!) your lawn will endure. Whether you prioritise a soft, shade-tolerant Buffalo or a tough, drought-resistant Couch, we provide tailored advice to ensure your new lawn isn’t just beautiful on installation day, but thrives for years to come

    Buffalo Grass

    Known for its broad, soft leaf. It’s one of the best choices for areas that receive partial shade from trees or buildings. Excellent drought resistance and durability.

    Zoysia Grass

    A slower-growing grass, meaning less mowing. It has excellent drought tolerance and good shade tolerance. It’s often praised for its beautiful colour and soft feel.

    Couch Grass

    A fine-leaf grass that is very fast-growing and incredibly resilient. It tolerates full sun and heat exceptionally well. Generally more economical.

    Kikuyu Grass

    Extremely vigorous and fast-growing, making it one of the toughest and most cost-effective options. It recovers quickly from damage and thrives in full sun and poor soils (like sandy Mandurah soil).

    Keep Your New Lawn Green and Healthy

    When you invest in a new lawn installation, the last thing you want is for it to dry out and fail during our harsh Western Australian summers. That’s why, at Family Tree Landscaping, professional reticulation is not an option—it is an essential part of the process.

    Your newly laid turf has a very shallow root system and is extremely vulnerable to dehydration. We eliminate this risk by integrating an automatic water-wise irrigation system tailored to your property before a single roll of grass is laid.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    We offer a range of turf varieties suitable for the Perth and Peel climate, including Buffalo, Zoysia, Couch, and Kikuyu grasses. Each type is selected based on factors such as sun exposure, shade cover, soil type, and how much traffic your lawn will get. Our team helps you choose the perfect turf for durability, appearance, and low maintenance.

    From site preparation to final installation, a typical turf project can take a few days to a week depending on the size and complexity of your yard. This includes clearing, leveling, laying turf, and integrating the irrigation system to ensure your new lawn is healthy and ready to grow.

    Yes. Newly laid turf has a shallow root system and is highly vulnerable to dehydration, especially in Western Australia’s hot summers. We install a professional, water-wise reticulation system before laying the turf to ensure consistent watering and long-term health of your lawn.

    Buffalo and Zoysia grasses are excellent for shaded areas. Buffalo has broad, soft leaves that thrive in partial shade, while Zoysia is slower-growing, soft underfoot, and tolerant of some shade. We assess your property’s light conditions to recommend the ideal variety.

    Proper maintenance starts with regular watering, mowing, and occasional fertilisation. With our professional reticulation system, your lawn receives consistent irrigation, making maintenance simple and helping the grass establish strong roots for long-lasting health.

    Absolutely. The Perth and Peel region often has sandy or poor soils, which can challenge lawn growth. Our team prepares the site carefully, levels the soil, and selects a turf type suited to these conditions. Combined with proper irrigation, your lawn will thrive even in challenging soil.
