Fountain Hills is a town in Maricopa County, set on hills between the McDowell Mountains and the Verde River. Many homes are built on graded pads cut into a slope, with natural washes carrying runoff past the yard.
That makes erosion the main problem for a landscaper here. A monsoon storm can wash rock off a bank, undercut a walkway or bury a drip line, so the yard has to be built to hold its ground.

Here are the six service groups we offer in Fountain Hills, each linked to its own page. Hardscape and design usually lead on a sloped lot.
A retaining wall, a set of steps or a new planting bed all depend on how water moves across the property. We plan the landscaping services Fountain Hills homes need around that first.
Call with your Fountain Hills address. We confirm scheduling and then come look at how water moves across it.
By day we check the grade, the washes and which native plants stay. We also note the views toward Four Peaks or the McDowell Mountains, so new trees and walls do not end up blocking them.
Then we plan for night. Fountain Hills is a recognized dark sky community, so any lighting we add sits low, points down and covers only what the paths, steps and plants need.
Fountain Hills is a longer trip north from Chandler. We start by confirming your address fits our schedule, and then the work follows a set order.
Structure goes in before plants. Walls, steps and drainage come first, so the planting and drip lines are not disturbed by heavy work later.
We check the trip against our calendar.

Walls, beds, drip and lighting with a price.

Slopes, runoff, lighting, views and distance come up again and again. Here is where we stand on each.
Yes. Fountain Hills is a longer drive for us, so call with your address and we will confirm whether we can schedule it.
We keep the work inside the area you want landscaped and leave the native desert you want kept. If your HOA marks areas that must stay natural, we plan around them.
We use fixtures aimed down and shielded so the light lands on paths and plants, not the sky. Check your HOA guidelines before you pick fixtures.
Runoff follows the washes and the lowest path across the lot. We use walls, rock channels and grading so the water passes through without taking the yard with it.
Native shrubs and groundcovers with spreading roots do well and help hold the soil. We choose them for your sun exposure and the steepness of the bank.
Yes. We place trees and taller plants with your views in mind and can suggest smaller desert trees where a big canopy would get in the way.
Fountain Hills sits northeast of Scottsdale, with the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation to the east and the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community to the south. Our crew drives up from Chandler for projects here.
The town is known for the fountain in Fountain Park and for views of Four Peaks. Yards here share the Sonoran Desert climate of the rest of Maricopa County, with more slope and more runoff than most.
These four link to their own service pages. Together they cover most of what a sloped desert lot needs.
Retaining walls and walkways deal with the grade. Drip irrigation and shielded lighting finish the yard in a way that suits how Fountain Hills is built.
