Dear Home Building Enthusiast,

Water. It’s the stuff of life – for humans and for nature.

And while we humans will be ok for the coming summer months, our gardens might suffer a bit as the temperatures pick up and the almost inevitable drought conditions hit.

So how do you keep your relaxing haven in as good a shape as you possibly can? And just what are the water conservation regulations that you need to know about?

It’s thirsty work keeping the garden green for summer.

Hopefully, you’ll find some handy tips and information in this week’s newsletter.

Happy reading!

Don't be a drip with water usage

As the temperatures continue to rise, Australians need to be mindful of water regulations that may affect them over the coming months.

Bring nature home in a greenwall

In recent times, there has been a serious push by people to reconnect with nature; whether it’s by getting out of the city more often or by spending some extra time in the garden, we are all thirsty for more greenery in our lives.

Grey water systems

Grey water is water that's already been used for another purpose in your home, collected for reuse for other purposes (most commonly to water plants, but also to flush toilets or do laundry).

Gardening in a dry climate

The lush, evergreen garden styles that were bought over from Europe are no longer seen as sustainable – and new styles are cherishing the beauty (and resilience) of our fantastic Australian native plants.

Rainwater collection and storage

After Antarctica, Australia is the driest continent on Earth, receiving less rainfall per year than any other inhabited continent.
