Salt Lake City experiences hot, dry summers tempered by breezes off the Great Salt Lake and cold, snowy winters moderated by the surrounding Rocky Mountains. Winters rarely fall below zero and average 26 days at or below freezing, while summer highs often exceed 90 °F with low humidity. Spring brings most of the area’s precipitation, and short monsoon storms can sweep through in late summer. Our Construction offerings are engineered for these extremes: we use hardscape materials and construction methods that withstand freeze‑thaw cycles and seismic soils, incorporate efficient irrigation and rain‑capture systems to thrive in dry months, and design shade structures and wind screens for comfort during heat and canyon gusts. The result is an outdoor space that performs beautifully year‑round in Salt Lake City’s challenging climate.

Our general contracting scope reaches across every phase of a major project. On the construction side: basement and kitchen remodels, garage builds, shade structures and pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and full structural site work. On the landscape side: engineered retaining walls, concrete flatwork, pavers, irrigation systems, planting, and site grading. We pull permits, manage inspections, and subcontract licensed trade work — electrical, plumbing, pool installation — when required. If your property needs it, we handle it.

Utah requires a licensed general contractor for most structural work above certain thresholds — because unlicensed construction creates liability, failed inspections, and work that cannot be insured or sold. A licensed GC like Pitt Landscape & Construction manages subcontractor vetting, lien waivers, permit submittals, and final inspection sign-offs on your behalf. When your project involves a deck, a retaining wall over four feet, a basement conversion, or any permitted outdoor structure, the GC license is not optional — it is what protects your investment.
