FAQ

Golden Bay landscaping questions

How soon after handover should I landscape my Golden Bay new build?

Straight away if you can — most estate guidelines require front-yard landscaping within six to twelve months, and sand blowing around an unlandscaped block annoys everyone. We can usually start within a few weeks of accepting a quote.

What are the watering days in Golden Bay?

Two days a week set by the last digit of your street number — 1 or 8: Wed & Sat; 2 or 9: Sun & Thu; 3 or 0: Mon & Fri; 4: Tue & Sat; 5: Sun & Wed; 6: Mon & Thu; 7: Tue & Fri — before 9am or after 6pm, with sprinklers off 1 June to 31 August. Bores included. Use our watering-day finder to check.

Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Golden Bay?

Under the WA Building Regulations any wall retaining more than 500 mm needs a building permit from the City of Rockingham and an engineer's design. Walls under 500 mm are generally exempt. We handle the paperwork.
