Landscaper in Farmington, Utah
Farmington sits inside the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District — and in 2026, Weber Basin cut customer allocations 20% and pushed the start of sprinkler season back to May 15 for more than 700,000 Davis and Weber County households. Much of Farmington, Kaysville, and Fruit Heights also run on Benchland Water District's untreated secondary water — red-painted taps, filtration, and a fall shutdown that all have to be planned for. We've been designing and building landscapes around exactly these conditions for 15+ years.
Built around Benchland's secondary water
If your Farmington address is on Benchland Water District's pressurized irrigation system — common across much of Farmington, Kaysville, and Fruit Heights — your sprinklers run on untreated water from taps painted red, not culinary water. That supply carries sediment and algae that can clog valves, nozzles, and drip lines fast if a system isn't designed with the right filtration from the start. We build every irrigation layout here with that filtration built in, not bolted on afterward.
Benchland's mainlines typically drain around September 15, and the system has to be properly winterized after that to avoid frost damage — something we account for in install timing and after-care. On top of that, Weber Basin's 2026 allocation cut and May 15 sprinkler-season start affect how we schedule new plantings and design water budgets for the whole property.
From lake-flat clay to mountain bench
Farmington is a narrow strip squeezed between the Wasatch Mountains and the Great Salt Lake, sitting at about 4,246 ft elevation. Head east toward Fruit Heights and the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and the soil turns to coarser, better-draining sandy loam — but the grades get steep fast, which is where retaining walls, terracing, and erosion control come in. Head west toward I-15 and Farmington Bay and you're in finer clay loam that holds water differently and needs different bed prep and drainage.
We build for both ends of that range — bench-lot retaining walls and slope work near Fruit Heights and Kaysville, and full landscape installs on the valley-floor clay closer to Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area, Lagoon, Cherry Hill, and Station Park. If you're in Centerville just south of us, the same bench-to-valley split applies.
One Davis County team, every project
Utah's SB 152 (2022) means HOAs can't penalize you for swapping turf for water-wise or Localscapes-style planting — good news for Farmington's many HOA neighborhoods. And if you're ready to remove grass, Utah Water Savers offers up to $3 per sq ft for lawn-to-waterwise conversions, plus the Flip Your Strip program for park strips — but approval has to be in hand before any turf comes out. We handle that paperwork as part of the job.
From there, it's full-service: landscape design and installation, hardscaping, retaining walls, water features, and outdoor living spaces, plus custom home additions and pool builds — all from the same Farmington-based crew that's worked this ground for 15+ years.
In Farmington we build retaining walls on bench lots, residential landscaping built for secondary water, and full landscape design and build in Farmington.

Questions Farmington Homeowners Ask
Most do. Benchland Water District supplies untreated pressurized irrigation through red-painted taps — not culinary water. That supply carries sediment and algae that will clog valves, nozzles, and drip lines fast without the right filtration built into the system from the start. We design every Farmington irrigation layout with that filtration included, not bolted on after something fails.
Weber Basin cut customer allocations 20% in 2026 and pushed the sprinkler-season start back to May 15 across Davis and Weber counties. For a new install, that means we design the irrigation budget around the reduced allocation from day one — planting timing and zone sizing both account for the later start and lower volume, so nothing has to be retrofitted after the fact.
Yes. Utah Water Savers offers up to $3 per sq ft for lawn-to-waterwise conversions, plus the Flip Your Strip program for park strips. Written pre-approval has to be on file before any turf comes out — we handle that paperwork as part of every conversion job. Utah's SB 152 (2022) also means HOAs in Farmington legally can't penalize you for making the switch.
Yes. The bench east of I-15 has real grade, and lots toward Fruit Heights get steep fast — terracing, retaining walls, and erosion control are standard work on those properties. We also build full landscape installs on the valley-floor clay closer to Farmington Bay and Station Park, where drainage and bed prep are the main challenge.
Yes — all of Davis County rolls out of our Farmington office. Kaysville and Fruit Heights also run on Benchland secondary water, so the same filtration expertise applies. Centerville, Layton, and Bountiful each have their own terrain and water considerations we design around.
