Low-water rock and boulder landscaping for the Wasatch Back: decorative rock beds, boulder placement, dry creek beds and gravel paths that cut irrigation and hold up under snow. Serving Park City, Heber City and Midway. Call 435-565-0986.
Rock landscaping done well looks like the mountain, not a parking lot. Royalty Landworks places boulders the way they sit naturally, builds rock and gravel beds with the right fabric and depth so weeds stay out, runs dry creek beds where water actually flows, and plants native and adapted grasses, shrubs and perennials between the stone so it reads as a landscape. It uses a fraction of the water a lawn does and needs a fraction of the upkeep.
Where water goes, where you want less lawn, and the look you are after.
Rock type, boulder count and planting plan, priced by line.
Remove lawn where needed, grade, fabric, set boulders, spread rock, plant.
Edging, irrigation adjustment for the new beds, and cleanup.
Utah's Localscapes program and Park City's own water conservation efforts push toward less lawn, and rock landscaping is the main tool. At 7,000 feet the goal is mountain, not desert: boulders, gravel, native grasses and evergreens, not cactus. It pairs well with drainage work and artificial turf.
Less than bare soil, if the fabric, edging and rock depth are right. We build them that way and recommend a light spring pass to keep them clean.
Yes. Park strips, side yards and slopes are the usual candidates. We remove the sod, regrade, and adjust irrigation for what remains.
Local crushed rock, river cobble and boulders sourced in Utah. We match color to the home and existing stone.
