Pool landscapes we've built
Boulders, lawn and planting that frame the pool instead of crowding it.
Grading, boulder placement and planting designed alongside the pool, not added around it afterward.
What goes into it
The landscape is designed with the pool, not fitted around it afterward.
Pool decks create their own grading and drainage challenges. We design the boulders, lawn and planting alongside the pool plan, so water moves away from the pool correctly and the whole yard reads as one project instead of a pool with landscaping added later.
Boulders & grading
Boulders placed for scale and drainage, softening the hard edge of the pool deck and framing the water.
Lawn & planting beds
Lawn shaped around the pool deck, sized for how you'll actually use the space around the water.
Privacy & screening
Trees and screening planting positioned for privacy around the pool without blocking sun or views.
What clients say
Designed well. Built on time and on budget.
How it works
The landscape is planned before the pool goes in, not after.
1
Site assessment
We look at your pool plan and the grading around it, so drainage and sightlines work from the start.
2
Landscape design
Boulders, planting beds, lawn and lighting are planned together with the pool and decking, on one plan.
3
Build
Grading, boulder placement, planting and lawn go in around the pool, finished as one project.
Why Millburn
One plan for the pool and everything around it.
Dozens of pool landscapes built
We've designed landscapes around dozens of pools across Utah, so drainage, grading and planting all work together.
Drainage done right
Grading and drainage planned correctly from the start, so water moves away from the pool deck as it should.
Designed with the pool, not after it
Your pool's landscape is designed alongside the pool itself, not treated as a separate add-on project.
Questions
Before you reach out
Can you work with a pool that's already being built?
Yes. We coordinate directly with your pool builder or design the whole project together, including the pool, so grading and layout work as one plan.
How much does landscaping around a pool cost?
It depends on the size of the area and the materials used. We'll give you an exact price during your consultation.
Can you landscape around a pool that's already installed?
Yes. We regularly design landscape upgrades around pools that were installed without a coordinated plan.
Can you landscape a pool on a sloped lot?
Yes. Boulder retaining walls and terracing are common solutions for pools on sloped lots, and we design them as part of the pool landscape.
Will the landscaping create extra pool maintenance?
We select plants and materials with pool maintenance in mind, minimizing debris and choosing hardscape that handles splash and chemicals well.
What areas do you serve?
We work across Salt Lake, Davis, Utah and Weber Counties, from Ogden to Provo.
