A yard built for Utah’s water reality — lower bills, less upkeep, and a landscape that still looks alive.
Call (801) 571-7336Xeriscaping has a bad reputation because people picture bare gravel and three sad shrubs. Done properly it’s the opposite — layered planting, real texture, and colour that changes through the season, using a fraction of the water a lawn needs.
We design around Utah as it actually is: alkaline soil, hot dry summers, and a short spring. Plants are chosen to thrive here rather than just survive here, and the irrigation is built to match what’s planted.
A water-wise conversion usually includes:

Xeriscape and low-water landscapes we’ve designed and built along the Wasatch Front.
Take the whole yard water-wise or start with the park strip. Every piece below is designed and installed by the same team.
We look at your exposure, soil, slope and what you’re currently watering before drawing anything.
Scaled plans built around hydrozoning, so plants with similar needs are grouped and watered together.
Old lawn removed and hauled away, with the soil underneath prepped rather than just covered over.
Native and adapted trees, shrubs, grasses and perennials chosen for Utah’s climate.
Rock, cobble and gravel that hold moisture, suppress weeds and give the yard its texture.
Organic mulch where the planting needs it, keeping roots cool and cutting evaporation.
Drip lines and emitters that put water at the root instead of into the air.
Weather-based controllers that adjust through the season rather than running a fixed schedule.
Flip your strip — the hardest patch to keep green becomes the easiest to look after.
Channels and grading that move runoff where you want it and hold it where plants can use it.
Natural stone that holds grade and turns a slope into usable, plantable space.
Well-placed trees cut evaporation and make the whole yard usable in July.
Verified reviews from homeowners across the Wasatch Front, gathered from every platform where our clients have shared their experience.
Converting a yard is less disruptive than most people expect. Here’s how it runs.
We walk the property, see which areas actually get used, and work out where lawn is earning its water and where it isn’t.
Scaled drawings, the plant list, the rock and material choices, and a clear number — reviewed with you before anything is torn out.
Old turf comes out, the soil underneath gets prepped, irrigation is re-zoned for drip, then planting and rock go in. Most front yards take a week or two.
We walk the finished yard together and set the controller, so the watering is right from the first day rather than months later.
A landscape is a big investment. Here’s what you can count on from the first visit to long after the last stone is set.
Complete liability coverage and documented work, so your property and your investment are protected.
Design, hardscape, planting and irrigation are all handled in-house by our own crews — never subcontracted out.
If something isn’t right, we make it right. And we’re still a phone call away long after the project is done.
Tell us a little about your project. We’ll reach out to learn more and schedule a time to visit your property.
Every landscape begins with a conversation. Tell us about your property and how you want to live outside — we’ll take it from there.
