Landscaping in Safety Bay: what we see

Safety Bay is one of Rockingham's original beach suburbs — older homes on big blocks facing Warnbro Sound and Penguin Island, now a hot spot for knock-down rebuilds and renovations.

Rebuilds want the full modern coastal package: limestone feature walls, exposed aggregate, artificial turf, architectural natives and lighting. Original homes usually need big lawns rescued or replaced and retic dragged into the smart-controller era.

Three things to know about Safety Bay yards

Westerly wind and salt: screening and tough planting on the front.
Big old blocks: staged landscapes work well.
Many original bores — we'll test before choosing a retic water source.
