Residential & Commercial Landscaping In Highland, UT
Highland is a community defined by its open spaces, large lots, and elevated standards. At MD Property Services, we understand that a Highland landscape has to do more than look good; it has to perform. Between the technicalities of pressurized secondary irrigation and the rocky, alpine soil, your property requires a team that knows the local terrain as well as the local city codes.

A 30-Year Legacy of Doing It Right
Our company started in 1992, far from the polished offices we inhabit today. It began with Mike Gray, age 15, and his younger brother Jared, age 10, working a single lawn with a mower and a pair of hand shears that belonged to their grandfather.
Those shears are still with us. They remind us that while we now manage expansive Highland estates and massive corporate campuses, the foundation of our business is still grit, personal ownership, and the “owner-operator” attention to detail that only a family business can provide.
We aren’t backed by private equity or out-of-state conglomerates. We are Utah-grown and Highland-focused.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you handle Highland’s pressurized irrigation (PI) system?
Highland’s PI system can be tough on standard sprinklers due to sediment and varying pressure. We install specialized filters and pressure regulators to protect your system and prevent the clogs that lead to brown spots.
Are you familiar with Highland City’s water-wise landscaping requirements?
Yes. We stay up-to-date on local ordinances, including requirements for park strips and drought-tolerant “Localscapes” that help you save on water bills while maintaining curb appeal.
Do you manage large-scale HOA contracts in Highland?
Absolutely. We are a preferred partner for several high-end HOAs in North Utah County, providing everything from common area mowing to winter snow removal and irrigation oversight.
What makes your fertilization program different?
Highland soil tends to be alkaline. We don’t use “big box” fertilizers; we use custom blends designed to unlock the nutrients already in your soil, resulting in a deeper, more resilient green.
