About Elite Landscapes

Utah's high end outdoor living crew. Family owned. Hand built.

We build the kind of outdoor spaces you don't just look at. You live in them. Paver patios laid on properly prepped base. Retaining walls engineered for the slope. Xeriscape that still looks rich in August. Everything we touch is built to outlast Utah's freeze thaw and the next round of neighbors who'll try to copy it.

We specialize in ambitious, high end projects where craftsmanship, materials, and design actually matter. If you want it done right, you're in the right place.

The Crew

Owner led jobsites. Every time.

You get the same hands on your project you see in the photo. No subcontracting to the lowest bidder, no mystery crew. That's the difference.

Our Process

How a Project Comes Together

Straightforward, transparent, and built around your schedule, not ours.

01

Consultation

We walk the property, understand the goal, talk budget honestly, and figure out if we're the right fit.

02

Design & Plan

Concept, layout, materials, and a real number. You see what you're getting before a shovel moves.

03

Build

Our crew installs, led by the owners on site. Clean job site. Daily progress. Zero surprises.

04

Final Walk

Walkthrough, punch list, warranty handoff, and a yard that's ready for the first fire in the fire pit.

Client Stories

What Clients Say

Homeowners, not stock quotes. Real words from real Wasatch Front clients.

It looks so good. I can't believe how much better you guys are than anybody else out there.
Cody and Amy Fowers Syracuse, UT
We were so happy with our front yard last year, but seeing everything come back into bloom this second year has made us appreciate it even more. The design you created and installed truly feels like a resort right in front of our home. We receive compliments from neighbors and even strangers on a regular basis. Thank you for transforming our yard into something so beautiful that we will enjoy for years to come.
Tom & Mjika Conine Clearfield, UT
We love our yard! It's a delight to our eyes. We entrusted Nate and his sons with creating beauty from what looked like a moonscape. We have paths to wander from front yard to backyard with happy flowering perennials on every side, and with drip irrigation they each have the water they need to grow and flourish. When we moved from Bountiful (after 40 years) to a brand new home in Syracuse, we knew we had the perfect opportunity to reduce and simplify our lives. We're in our 70s and not getting younger. A huge aspect of that was making smart choices about our landscape. With water being a precious resource we chose no lawn — a hard decision. Our two daughters had an excellent experience with Nate, so we reached out to him while our home was under construction. We knew we could trust Nate. He came to the site a couple times and we walked around the moonscape talking concepts and plants. I sent him ideas via text and he was always timely in responding. If you're looking for an exceptional result, a landscape that makes you feel happy and is easy to care for, Nate will deliver. All of our neighbors love our yard. People walking by comment that they've never seen anything like it. We're glad our yard is a place of beauty for us and all the passers by.
