Your backyard has more potential than you might think. A patch of concrete and a few scraggly shrubs can become a resort-style oasis with the right team behind it. One with pools, spas, outdoor kitchens, fire features, lush landscaping, and spaces designed for every moment of the day and evening. That’s exactly what Arizona Rainfall has been delivering to West Valley homeowners for decades.
Known for creating Outdoor Environments and Residential Resorts where memories are made; Arizona Rainfall approaches each project as a unique opportunity. The opportunity is to transform how a family lives, relaxes, and entertains outdoors. This isn’t just construction—it’s a thoughtful design built around your lifestyle. Here’s a closer look at what sets Arizona Rainfall apart, and what you can expect when you choose to work with us.
It All Starts with the Design Discovery Meeting
Before a single shovel hits the ground, Arizona Rainfall invests time in truly understanding what you want. Every project begins with a design discovery meeting. A meeting where a member of the design team sits down with the homeowner to learn about their ideas, dreams, and the way they plan to use their yard.
This conversation matters. It’s not just about choosing a pool shape or a tile color. The team takes the time to understand how you and your family actually live. How often you entertain, whether you have kids or pets, how much time you spend outdoors in the evening. And what would make you genuinely excited to step outside every day.
From there, the design team identifies opportunities to create distinct “zones” within the yard. A single backyard can comfortably house a grilling and BBQ station, a pool and spa zone, lush green spaces, quiet retreats, walkways, and dedicated play areas for children—all flowing together seamlessly.
Designing for Day and Night
One of owner Gary Hines’ passions is designing spaces that perform beautifully at all hours. A stunning pool deck at noon should be equally impressive at 9 PM. Arizona Rainfall builds that consideration into every project from the beginning.
Thoughtful outdoor lighting transforms a backyard after sunset. Fire pots, fire pits, pathway lighting, and LED pool illumination don’t just add ambiance—they extend the time families spend outside and make every corner of the yard feel intentional and inviting. Past projects have featured dramatic 24″ columns topped with fire pots, 42″ round fire pits, outdoor fireplaces, and integrated landscape lighting that brings the whole space to life after dark.
The goal is simple: your yard should make you want to be outside, long after the sun goes down.
Real Projects, Real Results
Arizona Rainfall’s portfolio speaks for itself. Across communities like Sterling Grove, Trilogy at Vistancia, Pebble Creek, and Peoria’s Meadows at Camino, the team has completed projects that consistently exceed homeowner expectations.
Sterling Grove: A Complete Outdoor Living Space
One recent Sterling Grove project featured a 35’x14′ pool with a Baja shelf and brilliant blue pebble finish, four color-changing LED lights, and a 14’x6′ spa flush with the pool. The outdoor living space included 1,000 square feet of limestone decking, 780 square feet of artificial turf, a 16’x12′ pergola with a built-in media wall, and an outdoor kitchen complete with a grill, sink, fridge, and pizza oven. A ripple-down water feature split into two planters added a signature design touch that elevated the entire space. See the project gallery!
Trilogy at Vistancia: Sophisticated Outdoor Sophistication
The Moody Pool Project in Peoria’s Trilogy at Vistancia community showcased a 500-square-foot pool with 12,000 gallons of crystal-clear water alongside a 7×7 spa perfect for unwinding. The project included 1,600 square feet of Philadelphia Travertine flooring, a 22-foot outdoor kitchen with travertine countertops and a premium Bull Angus grill, a 22’x14′ Aluma Wood structure for year-round shade, and a 42″ round fire pit. Hand-selected Mediterranean Fan Palms, Swan Hill Olive Trees, and colorful shrubs completed a landscape that felt both lush and uniquely Arizonan.
Peoria: A Multi-Destination Backyard Transformation
For a Peoria family, Arizona Rainfall designed a true multi-destination backyard featuring a 26×15-foot pool with a 7×7 spa, three stainless steel Bobe Cannon Scuppers creating dramatic water arcs, 1,400 square feet of Arctic Silver travertine decking, a cantilevered patio cover, a standalone fire pit area, and a dedicated pet zone. Designer Tim Brown also incorporated a full resort-style landscape with Lady Banks Rose Vines, Pygmy Palms, and Arizona Pro Turf.
The homeowner’s response said it all: “What an amazing backyard I have!!!! Tim Brown and his crew are excellent! My backyard is beyond my expectations. So great!!” — Stephanie Gregg.
