Landscaper in Sandy, Utah
Sandy sits between the Salt Lake Valley and the Wasatch foothills, with Little Cottonwood Canyon at its east edge and Dimple Dell Regional Park running through the south. Bell Canyon — a gated community in the foothills — runs on its own gravity-fed reservoir, separate from the Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District water that serves the rest of Sandy. Most of Sandy was built between the 1970s and 1990s: established lots with 30-40 year old trees, hardscape that's shifted and settled, and irrigation systems that have been patched rather than redesigned. From our Draper office, Sandy is a 10-minute drive — we run projects here every week.
Two water systems, one Sandy crew
Bell Canyon is a gated community within Sandy's city limits, served by its own gravity-fed reservoir rather than JVWCD culinary water. Properties within Bell Canyon have different water pressure and delivery characteristics that affect how we design the irrigation system. We identify the water source — and what it means for system design — before we finalize any irrigation plan.
The rest of Sandy runs on Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District, and Utah Water Savers rebates apply — up to $3 per sq ft for turf-to-waterwise conversion. Pre-approval has to be filed before any turf removal, and we handle that as part of every project. Sandy's established lots often have large turf areas installed in the 1970s-80s — the rebate potential on conversion projects here can be significant.
Mature yards, ready for renovation
Sandy's core was built out primarily in the 1970s-80s — lots with mature shade trees, settled concrete, and irrigation systems that have been band-aided for decades. Most of our Sandy work is renovation: pulling out what's failed, redesigning the irrigation to current conservation standards, and rebuilding hardscape that's heaved. The existing tree canopy is usually worth keeping — we design around it.
East Sandy near Little Cottonwood Canyon and Dimple Dell has hillside terrain and drainage from the canyon watershed. Properties on the east-side bench need retaining walls and proper drainage planning — the soil transitions from flat-valley clay loam to coarser bench composition as you move up toward the foothills.
In Sandy we build retaining walls near Little Cottonwood Canyon, residential landscaping in Sandy, and landscape design and build in Sandy.
