I asked Rod for a quote for some landscaping/backyard work and he was quick to provide awesome ideas and recommendations I hadn't even considered, and an estimate that was within my budget. His company installed a beautiful, large awning across our back patio and replaced loose rock with a patio paver extension tied into an existing area of pavers. They provided incredible service, showed up early, communicated well, got the job done in the timeline expected, tidied up after themselves and went above and far beyond to take care of me and keep me informed since I wasn't on site for the project. I'm so impressed! Please don't hesitate to work with Rod and his crew at Xtreme Backyards!

40 years of turning yards into
something worth coming home to
Xtreme Backyards AZ is a family-owned and operated landscaping company with over 40 years of hands-on experience. Our owner started building outdoor spaces back in 1984, while still in high school in Michigan. That early start built a work ethic and a level of craft that has carried through every project since.
In 1996, we brought that experience to Arizona and never looked back. From Mesa to Gold Canyon, Queen Creek to Scottsdale, we have spent nearly three decades learning the desert climate, the soil, and what Arizona homeowners actually want from their outdoor spaces. This is not a side operation. It is the only thing we do, and we take it seriously.
We work exclusively on residential properties. That is a deliberate choice. Staying focused on homes means we stay in direct contact with you from the first consultation to the final walkthrough. No hand-offs to a project manager you have never met. No crews showing up without context. You work with us, start to finish.
Our services cover everything a homeowner needs to go from a bare yard to a finished outdoor living space. We handle landscape design and installation, hardscape, pavers and natural stone, synthetic turf and putting greens, Alumawood pergolas, masonry BBQ islands, fire pits, fireplaces, custom boulder water features, outdoor lighting packages, and sport courts including pickleball courts. Whether you are starting fresh on a new home or overhauling a yard that never felt right, we build it to fit your vision.
Every project starts with a free in-home consultation. We come to you, look at your space, listen to what you want, and give you honest feedback on what is possible. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just a real conversation about your yard.
We serve homeowners across Mesa, Gilbert, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, and Gold Canyon. If you are in the East Valley and ready to turn your yard into something you actually use and enjoy, we are ready to talk.
Call us at (480) 415-9469 or reach out by email at [email protected] to schedule your free consultation. We are available Monday through Friday, 7am to 4pm, and by appointment on weekends.
What you can count on
Family-Owned Since Day One
This business started with one person and a work ethic built in high school. That same hands-on ownership still drives every project today.
Residential Work Only
We work exclusively with homeowners, not commercial crews or developers. That focus means you get our full attention from the first visit to the final walkthrough.
Free In-Home Consultation
We come to your property to see the space before we say a word about solutions. No guesswork, no generic quotes from photos.
Start-to-Finish Communication
You work with the same team from design through installation. There are no handoffs to subcontractors who don't know your project.
Design Meets Function
From synthetic turf and pavers to masonry BBQ islands and boulder water features, every element is chosen to fit how you actually use your outdoor space.
Arizona-Proven Experience
Working in the Valley since 1996 means we know how desert heat, soil, and sun exposure affect materials and plant choices over time.
