Landscaper in Murray, Utah

Murray has been around since 1902 — making it one of the oldest incorporated cities in the Salt Lake Valley. That history shows in the lots: some Murray properties predate World War II, with trees that have been growing for 70-80 years, concrete that's shifted over decades, and irrigation systems layered on top of older infrastructure. The Jordan River runs through the western edge of the city, Cottonwood Creek cuts through the middle, and Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District provides the culinary irrigation supply for the rest. Murray's mix of original 1900s-era neighborhoods, mid-century development, and newer infill construction means we're doing everything here from heritage-lot renovation to full new installs.

Murray's Long History

Established since 1902

Murray's oldest neighborhoods — the streets near Historic Downtown Murray — have lots built before 1920, with trees and infrastructure that reflect a century of growth. Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District supplies treated irrigation water throughout the city, and Utah Water Savers rebates (up to $3/sq ft) apply for turf conversions. Pre-approval has to be filed before any turf removal; we handle that as part of the project.

Mid-century Murray (1950s-70s) has the typical post-war lot profile: shade trees in their 50s, hardscape that's heaved and cracked, irrigation that's been repaired in pieces over the years. Most of that work is renovation and rethink rather than fresh builds, and we design around what's worth keeping.

Jordan River & Creek Corridors

Two waterways, two drainage realities

The Jordan River runs along Murray's western edge, and Cottonwood Creek cuts through the city heading toward the lake. Properties near either corridor have drainage and sometimes flood-plain considerations that factor into how we design beds, hardscape, and irrigation. We pull each property's flood-zone and drainage context before we finalize any design.

Central and east Murray — away from the river corridors — is standard flat valley-floor work: clay-loam soil, established lots, and the typical renovation mix. Utah's SB 152 (2022) applies to Murray's HOA neighborhoods, meaning homeowners can swap turf for water-wise planting without HOA penalty.

FAQ

Questions Murray Homeowners Ask

01 How old are the oldest Murray lots?
+

Some Murray properties near Historic Downtown were built before 1920 — trees that are 70-80 years old, foundations and hardscape from a different era. We assess each lot individually and work with what's structurally sound rather than tearing out what doesn't need to go.

02 Do you work on lots near the Jordan River or Cottonwood Creek?
+

Yes. Properties near both corridors can have flood-plain considerations and drainage factors that affect site design. We account for those before finalizing any hardscape or irrigation plan.

03 What water district serves Murray?
+

Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District supplies treated irrigation water throughout Murray. We design every system to work within JVWCD's conservation guidelines.

04 Can Murray HOA neighborhoods convert turf to water-wise landscaping?
+

Yes. Utah's SB 152 (2022) prohibits HOAs statewide from penalizing water-wise turf conversion — Murray HOAs included.
