Landscape Installation
Desert Landscaping & Xeriscaping in Las Vegas
Xeriscape conversions that cut water use while still looking designed, built from rock, drought-tolerant planting, and hardscape working together rather than a gravel lot.
What’s included
- ✓Xeriscape design and turf-to-xeriscape conversion
- ✓Water-smart plant palettes
- ✓Zone-based design separating high and low water areas
- ✓Rock and mulch groundcover
- ✓Coordination on water-district turf conversion rebates where available
Why this matters
A lot of xeriscape conversions end up looking like a yard someone gave up on: rock dumped flat with no structure. Done well, desert landscaping uses grading, plant layering, and hardscape the way a traditional lawn uses grass, with intention, not by default. That starts with zoning the yard: high-visibility areas near the entry and windows get more design attention and plant density, while side yards and background space can run leaner, so the water and the budget go where they're actually seen.
Our process
- 01
Site walk & design conversation
We look at your yard, sun exposure, drainage, and existing plantings, and talk through what will hold up in Las Vegas conditions.
- 02
Written scope & estimate
Materials, base prep, and scope are spelled out in writing before installation begins.
- 03
Proper base & prep work
Pavers, turf, and rock installations live or die on base prep. We grade, compact, and layer correctly the first time.
- 04
Installation & final walkthrough
We install to spec and walk the finished space with you before calling the job complete.
