Backyard Privacy Ideas for 2023

We believe in being kind to our neighbors and sometimes that means creating separation between what’s visible from their space to yours. There is nothing wrong with wanting privacy in your backyard. It may seem as if your outdoor space will always be one that all neighbors can see into, but with the touch of Land Design by Armstrong, it is possible to consider backyard privacy ideas. There are some residential locations where privacy is very easy to come by, but in the Salt Lake Valley, that is few and far between. Below are backyard privacy ideas that Land Design by Armstrong can bring to life. 

Sunken Patios 

Achecheived through hardscaping techniques, there are versatile designs to create a sunken patio. A sunken patio provides a retrieve from open visibility for grilling, lounging, and spending time with friends and family that is more secluded. Our team of landscape designers can create the blueprint for a sunken patio that fits your needs of size and functionality. Including the design of an outdoor kitchen, a walkway to the patio, and the design surrounding the patio. As a Belgard-preferred installer Land Design by Armstrong is the expert at installing the “Number One hardscapes brand in North America.” This ensures customer satisfaction with both the service and material. Products and services include permeable pavers, concrete pavers, and retaining walls.

Belgard products “provide the highest level of craftsmanship, set the industry standard for quality, and guide industry trends.” Our use of Belgard permeable pavers, concrete pavers, and retaining walls is durable and stylish. Concrete pavers and permeable pavers are great for walkways, driveways, and patios. Retaining walls to create a unique outdoor living space design.

Panels and Pergolas 

With a similar concept to sunken patios, panels and pergolas will seclude a section of your outdoor space. This is the part of your backyard that may be used the most when you are looking for privacy. Not only can we create privacy, but we can also implement lighting features and suggest furnishing like outdoor curtains to make a secluded oasis within the Salt Lake and Park City area. Additionally, there are outdoor plants that can be hung or vines that can be potted to elevate the seclusion and privacy. 

Stacked trees and plants 

Mix evergreen trees, shrubs, and large bushes like lavender or sage to create a natural look that blocks visibility into your space. This can be done on the perimeter of your backyard or along patios, walkways, or outdoor spas and showers.

Hedges 

There is no question of the customizability for hedges. Whether you are creating a section in your backyard or would like to surround the perimeter, tall and lush hedges are a great addition to a Utah residential landscape. Hedges can also be planted next to windows to create more privacy in your home. This can especially be needed if your home window is facing your neighbor's windows. 

Water Features 

Create a wall of privacy in your backyard with a waterfall or water fountain. This can add a relaxing white noise that creates a barrier of conversation from your backyard to your neighbors. We have even created outdoor water features that are dog friendly! This may seem like a larger project than adding hedges or stacked trees and plants, which we go over below. But our landscape contractors will ensure that you are in great hands from start to finish.
