Services Gravel

Gravel is one of the most practical ground covers you can use in a Phoenix yard — low-maintenance, good for drainage, and a natural fit for the desert environment. The right material installed the right way looks sharp and stays in place.

How gravel installation works: The area is excavated 2 to 3 inches, then compacted. A fabric weed barrier is laid and secured before any material goes down — this is the step most people skip, and it's why weeds push through cheap gravel jobs within a season. Gravel is spread to a consistent depth and raked level. Border edging is installed along any lawn, planter, or hardscape edge to keep material contained. Decomposed granite applications are often finished with a compaction roller for a firmer, cleaner surface.

Citiscapes installs gravel, decomposed granite, river rock, and crushed stone for residential properties across Phoenix and Scottsdale. We use gravel as a functional ground cover in planted beds, as a primary surface material for low-water front yards, and as a finishing element around hardscape features like walkways, patios, and retaining walls.

Gravel jobs look simple — and they are, when done correctly. The problem is that most shortcuts show up within the first monsoon season. Material migrates onto the street, weeds push through barrier gaps, and edges erode into adjacent lawn or concrete. We address all of that upfront with the right excavation depth, a quality barrier, and solid edge containment.

Decomposed granite is the most popular material we install in Phoenix. It's affordable, compacts well for a firm walking surface, and looks at home in the desert environment. For clients who want more texture, we also work with river rock, black lava rock, and crushed granite in a range of colors and sizes.

Gravel is often the final detail that ties a yard together — and it deserves to be installed with the same care as anything else on the project.

    Met with Kendal and liked him right away. So professional and knowledgeable. I told him that I didn't know what I wanted but showed him the area and he designed it perfectly for me. Great Job.

    I recently had Citiscapes work on my irrigation system and add some plants and landscape lighting. They did an excellent job and were a pleasure to work with!
