About Our Expertise
Expert Landscape Design & Construction in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area
Dream Retreats is a family-run design and build company that has been creating outdoor spaces across the Phoenix metro for more than thirty years. We started small, doing the work by hand, and grew into a full team that designs and builds your whole backyard under one roof, so you never have to line up a paver crew, a block wall crew, and a pergola crew and hope they all show up.
You call us, we come out and talk about what you want, and we create a custom design paired with a clear estimate and options. With a licensed landscape architect on staff, we handle the full mix of landscape and hardscape, from patios and turf to pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and pool remodels. Then we show up on time, do what we said we would do, and leave you with a yard you love.

OUR CREDENTIALS
Licensed and Experienced Landscaping Contractors You Can Trust
People spend twenty, fifty, sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars on their yards, and they need to know the team they hired will deliver. After more than 30 years installing some of the most exciting landscapes in Arizona, we have, and we are still here. We are fully licensed (Arizona ROC 154755), bonded, and insured, and we hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
Communication is everything to us. Good news or bad, we tell you, and we guarantee a response by the next business day. Every project is backed by our workmanship and our reputation. We are priced for people who want real value and a contractor who will still be here in ten years, not the cheapest bid on the page.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the typical timeline for completing a landscape design project?
Project timelines vary based on scope and complexity. We typically complete residential design phases within 2–3 weeks, followed by 3–8 weeks for construction, depending on features like hardscaping, irrigation systems, and outdoor living elements. Phoenix’s climate allows year-round construction, though we adjust scheduling for extreme summer temperatures. We’ll provide your specific timeline during our initial consultation.
Do you offer maintenance services after project completion?
We are a design and build company, not a maintenance service, so we do not offer weekly yard care or ongoing upkeep. What we do is design durable, low-maintenance desert landscapes that are easy to live with, and back every project with workmanship warranties. If a question ever comes up about caring for your new space, just reach out and we will be glad to help.
How long does a typical project take?
Timelines depend on the scope and design of your project. We’ll give you a clear schedule up front and coordinate every phase, so you always know what to expect from concept to completion.
Can you work within specific budget constraints for my project?
Absolutely. Our licensed landscape architect designs projects that maximize your investment while maintaining quality standards. We provide transparent pricing and offer competitive rates on materials and labor. Through careful planning and phased construction, we create solutions that fit your budget without compromising design integrity.
