Building in the foothills

In Gold Canyon, the desert is part of the yard.

Gold Canyon is an unincorporated community in Pinal County, spread across the foothills south of the Superstition Mountains. Many lots keep their natural saguaros, brittlebush and boulders, with the built yard fitted in around them.

That changes how a landscaping company approaches the work. The goal in Gold Canyon is usually a patio, fire pit or planting bed that blends into the native desert and keeps the mountain view open, rather than a lawn that fights it.

What Gold Canyon homeowners hire us for
What we do

Six services we bring to Gold Canyon homes.

Every service below has its own page. In Gold Canyon, hardscape and design work tend to come first.

Design leads on a foothills lot because the grade, the boulders and the view all shape where things can go. Once the plan is set, the landscaping services Gold Canyon yards need can be built as one project.

01

Patios, fire pits, seat walls and outdoor kitchens.

02

Plans drawn around slope, boulders and view lines.

03

Drip set up for native and desert plants.

04

Desert trees trimmed back from the house or planted new.

05

A small green area that takes no water.

06

Seasonal care for planted beds and trees.

Thinking about a patio with a view?

Tell us where you are in Gold Canyon and what you have in mind. We confirm scheduling, then come out to look.

Plan it first

Slopes and boulders get planned, not guessed at.

On a Gold Canyon lot, a patio that looks flat on paper may need steps, a low wall or extra base to sit level on the grade. We measure the slope and the drainage path before we draw anything.

We also note which boulders and native plants stay, and where monsoon runoff crosses the yard. A 3D rendering can then show the layout against your actual setting before any work starts.

The process

How a Gold Canyon project comes together.

Gold Canyon is one of the farther trips from our Chandler base, so we plan each step to make the most of every visit.

If your community has an HOA review, we build that into the timeline. We can give you the plan and material list to submit, and we wait for approval before building.

01

Check the date

We confirm your address fits our schedule.

02

Site visit

Slope, drainage, native plants and view lines.

03

Design

A layout, with a 3D rendering if you want one.

04

HOA review

You submit the plan if your community requires it.

05

Build

Hardscape first, then plants and drip.

Pricing

What goes into the cost of a Gold Canyon yard.

We quote Gold Canyon work after a site visit. Foothills lots vary too much for a price over the phone.

Materials, grade and scope drive most of the number. The distance from Chandler is also a factor, which is why we plan the job to limit trips.

Grade of the lot

Steps, walls or extra base to level a patio on a slope.

Materials chosen

Pavers, travertine, flagstone or concrete each price differently.

Features added

Fire pits, shade structures and lighting add to the scope.

Number of visits

Work grouped into fewer trips costs less in travel.

You get a written quote before any work starts.

Slick landscaping did a great job transforming our yard. Zach was professional and kept us updated throughout the process. Pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work. They completed everything quickly and efficiently. The final result looked clean and well done. Communication was excellent the whole time. I would definitely use them again.

Best landscapers I’ve ever had! I live in an HOA with very strict rules and they did an absolutely fabulous job. So thankful to have found them. Each of their employees are extremely hard working and even go above and beyond wiping off patio furniture and making every part of the front/backyard presentable. Can’t wait to see them again!

We’ve been working with CGL for nearly a year now, and they’ve been incredible. They helped us get our irrigation system back on track after our previous landscaper severely dropped the ball. Additionally, anytime we had an emergency leak, they were on-site within a few hours at most. Their responsiveness, professionalism, and quality of work have been outstanding. It's also nice to work with someone like Jose and can answer all of your questions and explain everything in such detail to ensure you understand the issue(s) at hand. Highly recommend!

I recently hired CGL Landscaping for sod installation at my home in Phoenix, and they did a fantastic job. From the initial consultation to the final touches, their professionalism and expertise were evident. They prepared the soil and installed high-quality, lush sod that transformed my yard. CGL Landscaping's attention to detail and customer service set them apart. They ensured proper irrigation, provided aftercare instructions, and even followed up to check on the sod's progress. The project was completed on time and within the estimated timeframes Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with CGL Landscaping. Their commitment to quality and outstanding customer service have earned my trust and future business. I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs in the Phoenix area.

CGL Landscaping has been great to work with. We reached out to Jose to get an estimate for a one time clean up and monthly service. Jose and Alan showed up the next day to provide an estimate for both services. We elected to move forward with CGL and the clean up crew was out the following day to complete services. Two weeks later, the monthly maintenance crew showed up to complete our first monthly service. Invoicing and payment is easy through an online portal. Jose and Alan were both responsive throughout the process and were accessible via text, email or phone call. So far we are very pleased with our services through CGL and would recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping services.

CGL landscaping made the process super easy from start to finish. Jose came out quickly to give me a proposal and I got it the same day. Scheduling was also very easy, and my project was done on time. Would recommend CGL to anyone if you’re looking for great work and great customer service.

I used to use another landscaping company and they never did the job right, along with that the communication was not there, never got returned calls and it was impossible to reach someone. Then I found CGL Landscaping. They were quick to come out for a free estimate and communication was always and still there. One of the office workers, Alan, is always there to answer and if he doesn't, he is quick to respond. Thank you CGL for 3 great years and many more to come!

SUPER TOP NOTCH COMPANY Best experience, Jose was kind and understanding of my situation. I had LNR landscaping put in synthetic turf in my front yard, did a horrible job. After months of trying to get them to come back, after they’ve been paid in full to fix it. They stopped returning phone calls , never kept set appointments to come and fix it. I called Jose and they blew me away, they came right away, crew was all friendly and got the job done quickly. They went above and beyond I was just thinking they to fix what was there but the job was so bad they removed it all and replaced the whole area. Definitely will recommend to everyone I know. Thanks Jose and team that came today you made my nightmare a beauty that I can now enjoy when I walk out my door.

I worked with Jose and his team and found them to be professional, courteous and trustworthy. My yard looks amazing. Jose was patient with me as I made a few changes from my original design. The trees they planted are looking healthy as well as the flower bed, Jose offered to provided care to my front yard and it turned out awesome. He also offered to made a nice area for my dog it turned out great. My plan is to continue with CGL Landscaping for maintenance. Thank you Jose for a job well done. Linda Coolidge, AZ

I rarely, if ever, write reviews let alone give someone a 5-star rating unless they REALLY deserve it. We interviewed 4 landscaping companies before we selected Creative Green Landscaping. We chose them because they were very knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable from our very first meeting. Jose (the owner) made it clear that our satisfaction was their number one goal. He definitely followed through and they did a beautiful job. They started the work immediately and throughout the project they showed up early and stayed late. They worked hard and provided quality work. When we decided last minute to make changes, they were flexible and helpful. We have had our fair share of negative contractor experiences, so we appreciate good and honest firms like Creative Green Landscaping. We highly recommend them for your project.
Questions

Questions about landscaping in Gold Canyon.

These are the questions that come up when Gold Canyon homeowners talk to us about a project. If yours is not here, ask when you call.

Most of them touch on distance, HOA review and building on a desert hillside. We would rather answer them up front than surprise you later.

We come from Chandler, which makes Gold Canyon one of our longer trips. Call with your address and we will confirm whether we can fit it in.

Yes. We plan around saguaros, boulders and native plants you want to keep and only clear what the design needs.

Yes, when the schedule allows. Communities around the golf courses often have their own landscape guidelines, and we build to them.

Usually, yes. Depending on the grade, it may need steps, a low retaining wall or extra base to sit level.

They can, especially young plants. We lean toward species javelina tend to leave alone and can suggest protection while new plantings settle in.

Yes. We offer 3D rendering so you can see the layout against your yard before any work begins.

Where we work

Landscaping in the foothills east of the Valley.

Gold Canyon sits along US 60 at the edge of the Tonto National Forest, with trailheads like Peralta close by. It is one of the farther drives for our Chandler crew.

Homes here range from golf course communities around Gold Canyon Golf Resort to custom houses on larger desert lots. The Sonoran Desert sets the terms for all of them: full sun, little rain and hard ground.

Projects to consider

Four ways to use a Gold Canyon backyard.

These four services link to their own pages. They are common choices for outdoor living on a foothills lot.

Evenings are when a lot of people use a Gold Canyon yard, once the heat of the day eases. Shade, a fire pit and a clear plan make the space work for those hours.
