Design & build · Riverton & the Salt Lake Valley
A brand-new home usually comes with a yard of compacted dirt and a deadline from the city or HOA. We take it from there: grading, sprinklers, sod, rock, planting, patios and anything else in the plan, built in the right order by our own crew.
The best time to call is before the builder pours the driveway and walks. Sprinkler sleeves under concrete cost almost nothing before the pour and a lot after it.
New-build front yard, sod and beds — one of our own jobs.
Is this right for you?
How we do it
Builders leave the ground rough and compacted. We shape it so water runs away from the foundation and the lawn and beds sit at the right heights against walks and the driveway.
Lines go in before anything else, zoned so lawn and beds each get the water they need, with sleeves under any concrete still to come.
Patios, walls, curbing and steps go in before sod or rock, so nothing finished gets driven over.
Sod for an instant lawn, weed barrier and rock where you don't want grass, and trees and shrubs spaced for what they'll become.
New sod and plants need the right watering from day one. We set it up and show you how to adjust it.
Utah weather & soil
Newer subdivisions in Riverton, Herriman, South Jordan and Bluffdale tend to sit on open, windy ground with heavy clay soil that builders compact with equipment. Grading and soil prep matter more here than anywhere: skip them and the lawn stays shallow-rooted and thirsty, and water pools against the house.
Many of these neighborhoods also have secondary (pressurized irrigation) water, which runs roughly May through mid-October in Riverton. We plan the system for the water you actually have.
What it costs
We don’t give prices over the phone, because a number for a yard we haven’t seen is a guess. Jason walks it with you and you get a written estimate — free, with no obligation.

“They truly made my dreams a reality.”
I cannot say enough great things about MP Lawn! They truly made my dreams a reality. From start to finish, Jason was incredibly detail-oriented and consistently went the extra mile to ensure everything was done perfectly. He made sure I was happy with my yard every step of the way, which gave me so much confidence throughout the entire process.

“Our full front yard redo, sprinkler system overhaul, and backyard design came to life in one week only!”
Highly recommend this company! What started as a quote for a new sprinkler system soon became a whole plan for our yard to follow the Utah Water Savers programs, and we were so amazed to get it all done with Jason and his crew in a matter of days. They were so great to work with. He gave us a…
Questions
Before, if you can. We can get sprinkler sleeves under the driveway and walks before they're poured, which saves cutting or boring later. We're happy to look at a lot that's still dirt.
Yes. Many owners do the front first for the HOA or city deadline and the back later. We plan both so the back doesn't undo the front.
Most jobs take days to a few weeks depending on size and what's in the plan. You'll get a realistic timeline with the estimate.
We work across Riverton, Herriman, South Jordan, Draper, Bluffdale, West Jordan and the rest of the Salt Lake Valley. Something else on your mind? Call 801-608-7207.
