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 Landscape Design 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 landscape architecture scope covers the full technical and aesthetic design of an outdoor environment: site grading and drainage analysis, hardscape layout (concrete, pavers, retaining walls, steps), irrigation system schematics, planting plans, outdoor structure placement (decks, pergolas, outdoor kitchens), and lighting design. When the site requires it, we produce engineered drawings for permit submission. Because we hold a Utah general contractor license, we can take a design from architectural drawings to permitted construction without transferring the project to a third party.

Our most impactful projects involve landscape architecture as the organizing layer for a multi-scope build: concrete flatwork, engineered retaining wall systems, pavers, full irrigation, tree and softscape installation, and outdoor living structures all designed as a single environment and built under one contract. These are the projects that transform a property — not individual line items, but a coordinated outdoor build where the architecture is evident in how everything relates. Our top completed projects in this category average well into six figures.
