Landscaping in Maricopa County
Maricopa County is the heart of the Valley of the Sun and where the large majority of our work happens. It spans Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Queen Creek, and dozens of communities in between — 1950s ranch homes with mature trees, luxury estates on hillside lots, and brand-new subdivisions handed over as bare dirt. We build outdoor living across all of it.
Throughout the county our core work is ramadas and shade structures, outdoor kitchens and fire features, paver and travertine hardscape, artificial turf, retaining and seat walls, water features, and low-water desert landscaping. The county's extreme summer heat, low-angle afternoon sun, and monsoon runoff shape every design decision — where shade actually falls at 5pm, which surfaces stay comfortable underfoot, and where a large volume of water is going to go during a storm.
Whether you're in central Phoenix, North Scottsdale, or the far East Valley, AZ Outdoor Concepts is a licensed, family-owned outdoor living contractor with over 18 years in this market. We handle permitting across the county's many municipalities and coordinate every trade ourselves.
Reviews
What Our Clients Say
“I will start by saying I was not asked to leave a review and did not know of this company before hiring them for our pool remodel. We could not have had a better experience with Az Pool Concepts. Our pool looks amazing and the whole process was so easy and seamless. Shawn was in constant communication about what and when things were happening, he was here every day overseeing the work being done and was always available by text with any questions we had. He exceeded our expectations and I truly cannot recommend them enough.”

“I hired Shawn and AZ Pool Concepts to demo and remove a permanent grill and fire pit to create more space, replace travertine that had been eroded by my salt pool with pearlescent limestone. Shawn and his team did an excellent job. His communication, integrity and customer service are all top notch, along with customer satisfaction in the project When I was looking to hire someone these are the attributes I was looking for. I highly recommend AZ Pool Concepts.”

“What a great experience... from the time we first contacted him to the finished product! Communication was quick and clear, the timeframe to start the job was excellent and the finished product looks amazing. We interviewed 6 companies and Shawn was the best candidate by far. We will use them again.”

“Shawn responded to my email inquiry the next morning, and came out that day to bid on our Travertine Patio and walkway job. His pricing was very fair, and actually got the whole job done in three days!! We went on vacation the day the crew started, and came home to a perfect install, clean-up, and could not be happier!”

Custom Design & Estimate
You get a full backyard design and a clear, itemized written estimate covering layout, hardscape materials, structures, plants, and timeline — and we handle the permitting with your city.
