Landscaping in Lehi.
New construction, finished yards.

Lehi is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, and most homes here are delivered with dirt yards from the builder. Yardd is the team that finishes them — from the day-after-closing turf-and-fence package to multi-year backyard buildouts. We work the whole Lehi corridor, from Traverse Mountain down to Pioneer Crossing.

What we look for in Lehi

Knowing the ground matters here.

Lot context

Lehi is mostly newer construction. Typical lots run 0.15 to 0.30 acres in subdivisions, with some larger estate lots in Cold Springs Ranch and Traverse Mountain. Backyards often start as flat dirt — design opportunity from a blank canvas.

Soil + grade

Heavy clay across most of Utah Valley, with rockier inclusions toward the foothills. Drainage prep is non-negotiable — Lehi clay heaves dramatically with winter moisture, and shortcuts on base depth show up within a year.

HOA + design rules

Traverse Mountain and Holbrook Farms have HOAs with front-yard requirements (some prohibit artificial turf in front yards, others have specific plant lists). Verify CC&Rs first. We handle the approval process for design submissions.

Permits + city

Lehi requires fence permits over 7 feet and most retaining walls over 4 feet. Pioneer Crossing zoning has specific setback rules. We handle the city paperwork.

Frequently asked

Questions homeowners ask about Lehi.

I just closed on a Lehi home with a dirt yard. Where do I start?
The right first call depends on whether you're looking for the full backyard package or a phased approach. Most new-construction homeowners do turf + a basic fence + irrigation in year one, then a paver patio or fire feature in year two. We can quote the whole picture or just phase one.
Will Traverse Mountain HOA approve my landscape design?
Traverse Mountain has an active design review committee with specific plant and material preferences. Most front-yard plans need approval; backyards have fewer restrictions. We submit on your behalf with paver / turf / fence specs that match the community standard.
How much does it cost to finish a typical Lehi backyard?
A turnkey 1,500 sq ft Lehi backyard with turf, a paver patio, fence, and basic lighting typically runs $35K–$55K. A more elaborate plan with a fire feature, pergola, and full landscape lighting can land $65K–$90K. We quote the whole picture in writing.
Do Lehi lots really need extra drainage prep?
Yes — Lehi clay is among the most expansive in Utah Valley. Every paver patio and retaining wall we install in Lehi gets a 6-8" compacted aggregate base minimum, and sloped patios get a French drain on the uphill side. Don't accept a quote that skips this.
