They helped us pick a turf that would better suit our needs and were done with the work in 2 days. Everything looks amazing and I will absolutely be using them for future projects.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were looking for a landscape design and construction service for the backyard of our new home in Phoenix.  My wife found Diamond Stone & Synthetic Grass online, with good reviews, so we decided to get a quote from them.  The project manager, DANIEL, responded and did the measurement for our backyard.  He explained to us the materials and the labors.  And the most importantly, the grading to direct water out of the backyard and away from the foundation of the house. In the same afternoon, he sent us the quote, the detail measurement, and the selections of materials.  The quote is much better than what we expected, so we decided to hire them for this project.

While the construction is ongoing, Daniel always kept us updated.  We asked a lot of questions during the process, to prevent mistakes caused by misunderstanding.  Daniel and his team always responded in a timely manner.  The whole team is knowledgeable, friendly, and patient.  They took care of the questions and issues we brought up, and the project ends up awesome.  When I saw the outcome, I have nothing else to say but WOW.  There was a tiny hiccough that the paver was too close to the gate, causing it hard to close.  Once we brought it to Daniel's attention, his team showed up in two days and fixed it.  How can we not appreciate a team taking care of problems so quickly?

We are very happy that we chose DSSG to do our backyard.

I met with so many different companies, but knew almost immediately I’d go with them because of how Daniel communicated and made me feel confident in their work. The crew was very quick and professional as well. We got new turf installed and it looks amazing! Even after it was done, they have been communicating with me all the way. Great service and reasonable prices.

Give the whole property a shared direction

When a backyard has grown through separate additions, its spaces can feel disconnected. Review how your terrace, lawn, paths, and gathering areas relate to each other. A renovation gives you the opportunity to simplify those relationships and make the landscape feel like a natural extension of your home.

Consider the property from every viewpoint

Preserve the features that give the yard character

Identify established planting, an existing pool, or a view you want the new layout to respect. Plan the work around those priorities, including how they will be protected and accessed during construction.

Make distant spaces easier to use

If parts of your property feel detached from the house, review their purpose and the route that connects them. A considered path, lighting, and a useful destination can give an overlooked area a clearer role.

Balance open space with gathering areas

You do not need to fill every part of the yard. Keep room for the outlook you enjoy and place new seating, shade, or lawn where it improves daily use. The plan should work from indoors as well as from the patio.

FINISHED DSSG PROJECTS

Real completed backyard work

These completed DSSG projects from our Phoenix Valley portfolio show different ways to connect stone patios, lawn, and outdoor gathering areas. Your renovation will respond to your own property and priorities.

Define what the renovation should protect and change

Walk through your Paradise Valley backyard from the rooms you use most. Note which views you want to preserve and where a new structure or feature could interrupt them. Discuss privacy needs, construction access, and any existing landscape areas that should remain undisturbed.

For a larger scope, establish the overall plan before separating the work into phases. Utility routes and preparation for future features may need attention earlier than their visible installation. Confirm applicable property restrictions and approvals for the proposed work during planning.

Prepare for your consultation.

Mark retained features and areas requiring protection
Identify the views and privacy priorities that shape the layout
Discuss access and preparation for each stage of work
Set a budget range and distinguish essentials from later additions

Ask about 3D landscape renderings when you want to discuss the proposed appearance before installation.

Coordinate the visible finishes and the work beneath them

A backyard renovation can combine hardscape, turf, pergolas, lighting, and an outdoor kitchen. The layout should account for the preparation and connections each feature needs. Ask for a proposal that defines the selected work, responsibilities, and exclusions, with design or 3D visualization services identified separately where applicable.

Backyard Renovation in Paradise Valley: your questions

Can a renovation retain mature landscaping?

Identify the planting you want to keep during the initial discussion. Its condition, irrigation needs, and relationship to construction access must be considered. Confirm protection measures and any required specialist assessment as part of planning the work.

How do you plan around a view or an open area?

Start by identifying the sightlines that matter from your house and existing seating. Review the height and location of proposed structures, planting, and features against those views. A layout or visualization can help you compare choices before committing.

Does a larger yard need a larger renovation?

Your priorities can be concentrated in one useful part of the property. A focused patio, shade, or circulation improvement may address the main issue. Review the broader layout first so a smaller project can connect sensibly to future work.

Can you coordinate new areas with an existing pool landscape?

The surrounding landscape can be planned around a pool you want to retain. Discuss existing decking, access, drainage, and the condition of adjoining surfaces. Clarify any pool-related construction or repair responsibilities separately in the proposed scope.

What information helps with a Paradise Valley renovation estimate?

Provide your address, current photos, and a list of the features to retain or replace. Share any available site plan, property requirements, and your budget range. Explain how you use the yard now and what you want the renovation to change.

My husband and I are so happy with the work that was done on my yard. In the backyard I had pavers put in around my porch. In the front yard I had turf, driveway extension and paver boarder installed. They show up on time and did a beautiful job, my yard looks like a work of art. I had what I wanted pictured in my head, Mike and his team brought it to life. They also did an excellent job cleaning up afterwards since the demo made a big mess. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for quality work, great communication every step of the way and friendly knowledgeable service. They also helped with my nightmare of an HOA which took a lot of stress off of me! I would give 10 stars if I could.

We got a few different quotes and went with them because they were confident in a variety of different projects we needed done in our backyard. We added Turf, retaining wall, and pavers. They ended up adding some much needed drainage as well. Everything was done quickly and we’re very happy with all their work, will be using them again for the front yard

🌿 🙌 This company truly stands out for their professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care for the community. I was so impressed with how accommodating their hours are—when I called on a Saturday, I was immediately connected with Mike, a very friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous professional in the landscaping industry. Mike took the time for an immediate phone consultation and advice to clearly explain their process and service offerings. He not only provided details on procedures, pricing, and even shared a link to the supplier of the cleaning products they use. 😊🌍 If you’re looking for a landscaping company that combines professionalism with genuine concern for the people they serve, I highly recommend them! 🙌 🌿

Diamond Stone did an exceptional job on our backyard. We had quotes from a few companies and this company gave us the most competitive price and spent the most time talking about different options with the yard. Communication was consistent throughout the whole process, and Daniel was an awesome project manager. The crew working on the yard were top notch as well. There was one hiccup with the wrong sized rocks being sent, but Daniel handled it and quickly resolved the issue. I would definitely recommend Diamond Stone.

We are beyond thrilled with the transformation of our Arcadia backyard by Diamond Stone & Synthetic Grass! We recently had them install a combination of synthetic grass, rock, and pavers, and the results are absolutely stunning. My husband handled the initial arrangements, and from the very first call, the experience was seamless. The team was incredibly responsive and genuinely cared about the vision we had for our project. During the entire project they were attentive to every detail, which gave us a lot of confidence moving forward. The installation crew was equally impressive. It was clear they were experienced and used to working together—they were efficient, careful, and knocked out the project quickly without sacrificing quality. We’ve got some work to do to fill the planters with Desert Steel cacti but check out the photos! The best part? Seeing our grandsons finally able to run around and play. Before this, they weren't even allowed in the backyard because it was just dirt. Now, it’s a beautiful, functional space where we’ve spent the last few weeks entertaining and enjoying our family in a whole new way. Thank you, Diamond, for giving us a backyard we truly love!

Mike and his team did an excellent job landscaping our backyard. The scheduling, consultation, work, final walkthrough, and payment process was seamless. We had artificial turf, paverstone walkway, paverstone outdoor living area, and gravel installed. Everything is clean, symmetrical, level, and eye catching. Mike and his crew also left a clean worksite when the job was done. Highly recommend Diamond Stone and Synthetic Grass.
