Spring Valley is one of the older parts of the west-central valley, and a lot of its yards were built in an era that assumed cheap water and wall-to-wall grass. Las Vegas Landscape Pros spends most of its time here on conversions: taking tired lawns and failing sprinkler systems and rebuilding them into something that fits the desert and the current cost of water.
Lawn conversions done properly
A conversion is more than killing grass and dumping rock on it. We remove the turf and its thatch layer, correct the grade the old lawn was hiding, install new irrigation, and then build the desert design on a clean base.
The replacement is real desert landscaping: structure from boulders and grade, plant layers of Texas ranger, red yucca, and desert marigold, and decomposed granite sized and edged so it stays put.
Old sprinkler systems on their last season
Twenty-year-old spray systems in Spring Valley usually have broken heads, mismatched nozzles, and a controller nobody has adjusted in years. We replace them with zoned drip irrigation that delivers water at the root instead of into the air, and set seasonal schedules so summer and winter are not treated the same.
Mature trees worth keeping
The upside of an older neighborhood is canopy. We keep established ash, mesquite, and pine structurally sound with tree trimming that removes deadwood and reduces end-weight before summer wind finds the weak limb.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to remove my whole lawn?
Not necessarily. Many homeowners convert the front yard and keep a smaller functional green area in back, either as grass or as artificial turf.
Can you reuse my existing sprinkler system for drip?
Sometimes the valves and mainline are reusable. The spray heads and laterals almost never are. We assess what is serviceable and quote the conversion honestly.
Will removing the lawn hurt my mature trees?
Not if the irrigation is planned for it. Established trees need their own deep, infrequent zone at the dripline, which we install as part of the conversion.
