Landscape Finishing Elements

The finishing details are what bring a landscape to life. Our team installs artificial turf, smart irrigation systems, custom putting greens, decorative rock, planting areas, and landscape lighting to create outdoor spaces that are both beautiful and easy to maintain.

Outdoor Living Spaces Designed for Gilbert’s Climate

A successful Gilbert landscape needs to do more than look good on installation day. It must provide comfortable shade, manage water correctly, withstand intense sun, and remain practical through Arizona’s long summers. Platinum Outdoors plans each outdoor living space around the property’s sun exposure, drainage, architecture, lot layout, and the way the homeowner intends to use the yard.

Shade structures, covered seating areas, and custom pergolas can make patios and outdoor kitchens more comfortable during the hottest parts of the day. Pavers, concrete, turf, planting areas, and decorative rock are selected and positioned with heat, durability, water use, and long-term maintenance in mind.

Our landscape plans can also incorporate efficient irrigation, thoughtful grading, outdoor lighting, and drought-conscious planting to create a backyard that feels cohesive and performs well over time. The result is a custom outdoor living space designed for year-round entertaining, relaxing, and everyday use in Gilbert.

Our Landscape Design & Installation Process

Creating a custom outdoor living space should feel exciting—not overwhelming. Our design-build process keeps every stage organized, transparent, and focused on your goals, from the initial consultation through the final walkthrough.

Austin and his crew did a phenomenal job on our backyard. From day one he went over our design carefully, gave us a honest estimate, added excellent ideas and proceeded to start on the day he said he would. The crew was polite, knowledgeable, cleaned up their work space everyday and were masters at their
trade. Geo was the project lead, he was so attentive to detail. He laid out the pavers to perfection. Our Pergola swing turned out beautiful. Everything about our yard turned out spectacular. We are definitely going to use Austin and his talented crew for future projects this summer. Thank you Platinum Outdoors for a job well done!

Austin and his team at Platinum Outdoors were nothing short of perfection!
We moved into our new home over a month ago and had paint, flooring, bathroom reno, framing, you name it done to our home. Every single project we started quickly ran into serious issues and we were always provided crews that were messy and not qualified to be doing the work.
However Austin’s team lead by Leo were professional, organized, timely, respectful and most importantly true craftsman’s at their trade. For everything that has gone wrong for us during this move, Platinum Outdoors is the true bright spot and they earned a customer for life.

Landscape Design Across Gilbert Neighborhoods

Platinum Outdoors designs and builds custom landscapes throughout Gilbert, including established communities, newer master-planned neighborhoods, lake communities, and larger residential properties. Our team has experience planning outdoor spaces for homes in areas such as Power Ranch, Seville, Val Vista Lakes, Morrison Ranch, Agritopia, Layton Lakes, The Islands, and Adora Trails.

Every neighborhood presents different design considerations, from HOA requirements and lot layouts to sun exposure, drainage, architecture, and the amount of space available for outdoor living. We tailor each landscape plan to the property, helping homeowners create cohesive backyards with pavers, shade structures, outdoor kitchens, fire features, turf, planting, lighting, and other custom elements.

We also serve homeowners in nearby East Valley communities, including Chandler and Queen Creek, along with select projects throughout Phoenix, Ahwatukee, Paradise Valley, and Fountain Hills.

Check Out Our Backyard Renovation in Gilbert

We recently completed a backyard remodel in Gilbert. The upgrades after the initial tear out include:

– A brand new outdoor kitchen with a 4k cantilever pergola, marble countertops, porcelain tiles, and Kokomo appliances

– A putting green installation in the side yard

– An outdoor entertainment with custom seating and a firepit

Complete Front and Backyard Landscaping Project in Gilbert

This recent Gilbert project shows how a coordinated landscape design can transform both sides of a property. The front yard was rebuilt with clean walkways, low-maintenance planting areas, decorative rock, and artificial turf that adds color without creating a demanding maintenance schedule.

In the backyard, the homeowners gained an open turf area, a putting green, and a covered outdoor seating space. The modern shade structure includes integrated lighting, privacy slats, and room for comfortable furniture, creating a defined destination for relaxing and entertaining.

By approaching the front and backyard as one project, Platinum Outdoors was able to maintain a consistent style while giving each area a distinct purpose.

A Recent Gilbert Backyard Project Built for Everyday Enjoyment

A successful backyard remodel should improve both the appearance of the property and the way the space is used. At this Gilbert home, the project combines travertine, artificial turf, landscape lighting, the existing pool area, and a custom outdoor cooking feature.

Travertine provides a durable, refined surface around the outdoor living areas, while artificial turf adds usable green space without the upkeep required by natural grass. New lighting helps the homeowners enjoy the yard after sunset, and the custom outdoor feature creates a dedicated place for cooking and gathering.

The combination of practical surfaces, entertainment features, and low-maintenance landscaping turns the yard into an extension of the home rather than an area that is only viewed from inside.

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscape Design in Gilbert

Do you provide both landscape design and installation in Gilbert?

Yes. Platinum Outdoors manages the complete landscape design and installation process, from the initial property evaluation and custom layout to material selections, construction, and the final walkthrough. This gives homeowners one team to coordinate the entire project rather than hiring separate designers and installers.

Can you design a complete backyard for a new-build home?

Yes. We frequently help homeowners turn unfinished or builder-grade yards into complete outdoor living spaces. A new landscape installation may include grading, drainage planning, irrigation, pavers, artificial turf, planting areas, decorative rock, lighting, shade structures, outdoor kitchens, and fire features.

Can you remodel an existing Gilbert backyard?

Yes. Our backyard renovation services are designed for outdoor spaces that feel outdated, underused, or disconnected from the home. We can redesign the layout, replace worn materials, improve shade and seating, update hardscaping, add entertainment features, and bring the entire yard together through one cohesive plan.

What features can be included in a custom landscape design?

A custom landscape may include paver patios, walkways, decorative concrete, artificial turf, putting greens, outdoor kitchens, built-in grills, fire pits, outdoor fireplaces, pergolas, shade structures, irrigation, planting, decorative rock, water features, and outdoor lighting. The final combination depends on the property, available space, budget, and how you want to use the yard.

How do you design landscapes for Gilbert’s climate?

We consider sun exposure, heat, drainage, water use, material durability, and the long-term maintenance needs of each property. Our team recommends outdoor materials, plants, shade features, irrigation systems, and layout choices that are suited to Arizona conditions while still matching the homeowner’s preferred style.

Can you help with HOA requirements in Gilbert communities?

We can design the project with common HOA considerations in mind and provide plans or project details that may support the homeowner’s submission. HOA rules and approval requirements vary between communities, so homeowners remain responsible for confirming the specific process and securing approval before construction begins.

How long does a landscape design and installation project take?

The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project, material availability, permitting or HOA requirements, and the features being installed. A smaller landscape update may move more quickly, while a complete backyard renovation with hardscaping, shade structures, an outdoor kitchen, or multiple custom features will require additional planning and construction time. Your proposal will include a clearer projected schedule.

How much does a custom landscape project cost in Gilbert?

Pricing varies based on the size of the yard, the existing site conditions, the materials selected, and the number of features included. Pavers, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fire features, turf, irrigation, lighting, and drainage work can all affect the overall investment. Platinum Outdoors provides a detailed proposal after learning about the property and the homeowner’s goals.

Do you install outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and outdoor fireplaces?

Yes. We design and build custom outdoor kitchens, built-in grilling areas, fire pits, and outdoor fireplaces as part of larger landscape and outdoor living projects. These features are planned around seating, traffic flow, shade, available space, and the overall design of the backyard.

Do you install pergolas and other shade structures?

Yes. Custom pergolas and outdoor shade structures can be incorporated into the landscape to make patios, kitchens, seating areas, and gathering spaces more comfortable. We design each structure to fit the layout of the yard and complement the architecture of the home.

Can you improve drainage and irrigation during a backyard renovation?

Yes. Drainage and irrigation are important parts of the planning process, especially when changing elevations, expanding hardscaping, adding turf, or redesigning planting areas. Our team evaluates how water moves through the property and incorporates irrigation and drainage solutions into the overall landscape plan where needed.

Which Gilbert neighborhoods do you serve?

Platinum Outdoors serves homeowners throughout Gilbert, including Power Ranch, Seville, Val Vista Lakes, Morrison Ranch, Agritopia, Layton Lakes, The Islands, Adora Trails, and surrounding communities. We also complete select landscape design and outdoor living projects in nearby East Valley cities such as Chandler and Queen Creek.

How do I start a landscape design project with Platinum Outdoors?

Start by scheduling a design consultation. Our team will discuss your goals, visit the property, evaluate the existing space, and explain the next steps for developing a custom landscape plan and project proposal.
