Riverton Landscaping
Riverton sits between South Jordan and Herriman in the southwest valley — a city of newer subdivisions, strong schools, and families who spend real time outdoors. Lots here run mid-size, enough for a proper backyard design without the sprawl of some Herriman builds. The area has an established enough character that full turf lawns are the norm, which makes Riverton a prime market for smart water-wise conversions that keep the livable feel while cutting the water bill.
Riverton homeowners tend to know what they want — a usable, maintained-looking yard that doesn't require weekend irrigation chasing. We deliver exactly that: drip-based xeriscape that looks full and intentional, hardscape that creates outdoor living space, and irrigation systems calibrated to the actual water budget.
Riverton is within JVWCD service territory and participates in the district's turf replacement rebate program. The city has implemented voluntary water conservation schedules and encourages xeriscape through municipal outreach.

Riverton is served by the Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District (JVWCD), which offers a combined rebate of up to $3.00/sq ft for qualifying turf-to-xeriscape conversions. That means a 2,000 sqft front-yard conversion returns up to $6,000 back in your pocket — and we handle the application from pre-approval through the final inspection.
Eligibility requires a minimum of 200 sqft of turf removed, replacement with water-wise plants or hardscape, and conversion of irrigation to drip or bubbler emitters. Pre-approval from JVWCD is mandatory before any work begins — skipping that step disqualifies the rebate entirely. We walk every Riverton client through each milestone so nothing slips through the cracks.

Landscaping Questions in Riverton
What's the difference between xeriscape and just gravel?
Xeriscape means water-wise design with appropriate plants, soil prep, and efficient irrigation — gravel is just one element. A well-designed xeriscape has full plantings, layered texture, and looks like a garden, not a parking lot.
Can I keep some grass and just convert part of the yard?
Yes — partial conversions are common. Many Riverton homeowners convert the front to xeriscape for the rebate and curb appeal, while keeping a turf play area in the back for kids.
Does the JVWCD rebate cover my parkstrip?
Parkstrips qualify as long as they are at least 8 feet wide. Many Riverton strips from 2000s-era subdivisions meet this threshold — we measure on-site during the estimate to confirm before you apply.
