Landscaping in Eagle Mountain
Eagle Mountain sits on the far side of the Lake Mountains from the rest of Utah County, out in Cedar Valley at about 4,885 feet. It gets roughly 13.5 inches of rain and snow a year, so almost every yard depends on a sprinkler system. Open ground to the west lets the wind run. And the city has grown so fast that most yards here started as bare builder dirt sometime in the last 20 years.
It is also two climates in one town. The Ranches, on the Utah Lake side, is milder. City Center, toward Fairfield, is cooler and drier, with a growing season near 95 days. There is no citywide secondary water, so lawns run on metered city water, and lawn watering is off-limits from 10 AM to 6 PM. New homes get one year to finish the front yard and two for the back.
We build for the side of town you live on, beat the deadline and keep the walls and the water on the right side of city code.
Eagle Mountain sits at about 4,885 feet at the western and northern base of the Lake Mountains, runs no citywide secondary irrigation, and city code 13.30.010 bars lawn watering from 10 AM to 6 PM.
What Eagle Mountain yards deal with
Cedar Valley wind has closed Eagle Mountain Blvd with blowing dust and filled yards with tumbleweeds. We stake trees, choose rock that stays put, anchor pergolas and fences, and place patios where the house blocks the gusts.
City code 17.60.100 gives new homes one year from occupancy to finish the front yard and two for the back, and the park strip is yours to landscape. We plan the whole lot and build the front first so nothing gets torn up later.
With no citywide secondary system, sprinklers here run on metered water with tiered rates, and newer building permits require a smart controller. We zone lawn apart from drip beds and set the controller to stay inside the city's watering hours.
Wall, yard deadline and watering rules come from the Eagle Mountain Municipal Code (17.60 landscaping, 13.30.010 watering hours) and the city's retaining wall handout. Rear yard and artificial turf rules have been under review, so we confirm current requirements with the city on every job.
Planting that lasts here
The USDA map puts Eagle Mountain in zone 6a to 7a, but USU says cold air pooling can make some sites act like zone 4b to 5b. The last spring freeze lands around May 15 near the Ranches and as late as June 7 at the Fairfield station by City Center. We pick plants for your spot and hold tender ones until the frost risk passes.
The soil is alkaline and well-drained, and it runs saltier toward City Center. On new lots the builder usually strips or buries the topsoil and packs down what is left. We loosen it, add screened topsoil and lean on alkaline-tolerant, drought-tough plants on drip, the kind USU recommends for this city.
Neighborhoods we work
We work all across Eagle Mountain: the Ranches, including Freemont Springs and Mt. Airey, City Center and the Town Center area, SilverLake, Overland, Spring Run, White Hills, Cedar Pass Ranch and Lone Tree.
Many of these neighborhoods are still filling in, and some back right onto sagebrush or the mule deer corridor. Before we quote, we come out, walk your lot and give you a number in writing.
