Timeline
3–5 days
  • Grading so water drains away from the house
  • Soil prep to loosen Utah's heavy clay

04 · Water-wise

Water-wise landscaping

Yards that look full and colorful while using far less water. Native and drought-tolerant plants, drip irrigation, and rock or bark mulch, designed to look intentional, not like a gravel lot.

Typical backyard beds
$4,000–$10,000
Timeline
2–5 days
  • Plants that thrive here, like Russian sage, penstemon, yarrow, and ornamental grasses
  • Drip lines that water roots, not sidewalks
  • Weed barrier, plus rock or bark mulch
  • Lawn-to-garden conversions for existing yards

Some Utah cities offer rebates for replacing lawn with water-wise landscaping. We'll help you check whether yours does before you start.

Timeline
1–3 days
  • Shade trees placed for afternoon shade
  • Shrubs and perennials for color through the seasons

Questions

Good questions, straight answers.

Can we really build in phases?

Yes, and most of our families do. We design the whole yard first, then build the essentials, like grading, sprinklers, and sod. The patio, trees, and beds can come next season or the one after. Because it all follows one plan, nothing has to be torn out later.

When should we start?

We build from March through November and design year-round. Winter is the best time to design, because spring build dates fill up fast.

How long does a full backyard take?

Most backyards take two to four weeks to build once the design is done. Weather and material deliveries can shift that a little, and we'll keep you posted along the way.

Do you help with HOA approval?

Many newer Lehi and Saratoga Springs neighborhoods require it. We'll give you the plan drawings and plant list most HOAs ask for, so you can submit them before we start.

Is the design fee refundable?

The $750 design fee is credited toward your build if you build with us. If you don't, the plan is still yours to keep and use.

Do you winterize sprinklers?

Yes. We offer fall sprinkler blowouts for systems we install, so your lines don't freeze and crack over the winter.

Do you do front yards too?

We do. Most new homes come with a builder-installed front yard, and we can refresh it to match your new backyard.

Ready to plan your yard?

It starts with a free, no-pressure visit to your yard. We'll bring ideas, and you bring the kids' wish list.
