Landscaping in Sandy.
From the Wasatch foothills, one yard at a time.

Sandy sits where the Wasatch Front meets the Salt Lake Valley — a mix of newer foothill subdivisions and established mid-valley neighborhoods, almost all of which we serve. Yardd designs, prices, and installs end-to-end across Sandy: turf, hardscape, fencing, decks, and permanent lighting.

What we look for in Sandy

Knowing the ground matters here.

Lot context

Sandy lots range from 0.18 to 0.45 acres, with foothill subdivisions like Granite and Pepperwood trending larger. Mid-valley neighborhoods (White City, Hidden Valley) cluster around 0.20 acres with mature plantings.

Soil + grade

Sandy clay over gravel through most of the lower valley. As you climb east toward Granite or Sandy Heights, the soil turns rockier with decomposed granite — base prep depth changes accordingly.

HOA + design rules

Most Sandy subdivisions have HOAs with landscape standards. Pepperwood and Dimple Dell are notably restrictive on front-yard artificial turf, fence height, and material color. We pre-clear designs with the HOA when needed and bring approved spec sheets to every quote.

Permits + city

Sandy requires permits for fences over 4 feet, retaining walls over 4 feet, and most attached deck structures. We handle the paperwork, inspections, and any city-specific drainage tie-in requirements.

Frequently asked

Questions homeowners ask about Sandy.

Will Sandy HOAs let me install artificial turf?
Most Sandy HOAs allow artificial turf in backyards, but front-yard rules vary widely. Pepperwood, Dimple Dell, and parts of Granite restrict or prohibit front-yard turf. We check your CC&Rs before we quote, and submit the spec sheet for approval where needed.
Do you handle drainage on Sandy hillside lots?
Yes — and on the foothills, drainage is the most important detail. Hillside lots collect uphill runoff, and a paver patio or wall built without a drainage plan moves within a year. We design French drains, swales, and base depth around the actual grade on every Sandy hillside install.
What's the typical timeline for a Sandy paver patio install?
7–10 working days for a 300–500 sq ft patio with no significant excavation. Add 2–3 days if HOA approval is needed before we mobilize, and another 2–3 if existing concrete or sod removal is in scope.
How does freeze-thaw affect Sandy installs?
Sandy gets ~30-40 freeze-thaw cycles per winter, which is hard on shallow concrete and undersized retaining walls. Every Yardd install in Sandy uses base depths and reinforcement specs that account for this — we don't shortcut prep here.
