We design and build outdoor spaces in Carson City — turf, pavers, block walls, lighting and water. Quiet work, clean edges, yards that hold up to high desert seasons.

Most yards out here start as dirt, gravel and a fence line. We treat that as a plan waiting to happen — grade it right, set the hardscape true, and let the planting do the softening.
Family-run, licensed and local. We work on ordinary Carson City lots and build them like they matter, because the back door is the one you actually use.
what we build
Artificial Turf
Pet-rated, UV-stable turf over a compacted base that drains. Charcoal paver borders keep the edge crisp and the seams invisible. No mowing, no brown patches in August.
Paver Patios & Walkways
Interlocking pavers set on screeded base with proper fall away from the house. Fire pit surrounds, dining patios, side-yard walkways — laid tight and edge-restrained so they stay flat.
Retaining Walls
Block walls that hold a slope and give you usable yard back. Engineered base, drain rock, geogrid where the height calls for it. Seat wall caps if you want somewhere to sit.
Landscape Lighting
Low-voltage path lights, uplights on trees, and wash on stone. Warm 2700K only. Timers and transformers sized so you can add a zone later without pulling everything up.
Water Features
Pondless boulder falls, spillway basins and bubbling urns. Sealed basins, quiet pumps, and lighting set into the stone so it reads at night as well as it does at noon.
Gravel & Xeriscape
Decomposed granite, cobble bands and boulder placement that looks like it was always there. Low water, low upkeep, and built to survive Nevada wind and winter.
Irrigation
Drip to beds, rotors where they earn their keep, and a controller you can actually program. Blow-out ready valves and clean manifolds for the freeze every October.
Planting Design
Plant palettes chosen for zone 6b — grasses, sage, rabbitbrush, maples for shade. Massed, not scattered, so the beds read whole from the patio.
how it goes
Three steps, no surprises.
Walk the yard
We come out, measure, look at drainage and sun, and talk about how you actually use the space. No pressure, no template pitch.
Draw the plan
You get a scaled layout with materials, phasing options and a line-item price. Change it as many times as you need before anything moves.
Build it clean
One crew, start to finish. Site kept tidy each evening, base compacted properly, and a walkthrough before we pull the trailer out.
