One Utah crew. Twenty years of yards.
Since 2007, Simplified Landscaping has designed, built, and cared for outdoor spaces across northern Utah — with a single in-house team and a promise that what we quote is what you pay.
We believe in taking ownership of our work, protecting the standards that define excellence, earning trust through our actions every day, and investing in one another.
Four things we won't compromise on.
Own it completely
From first visit to final walkthrough, someone on our team owns every detail of your project. We treat residential yards and commercial properties with the same care, because your landscape is a reflection of you.
Protect the standard
We hold the same standard for a small home refresh and a large commercial install. No shortcuts on materials, craft, or safety—ever.
Earn trust daily
Trust is built one kept promise at a time. We listen, communicate clearly, and care for your property like it's our own—whether it's your home or your business.
Invest in each other
We invest in our crew with training, mentorship, and fair wages so they can bring real care and craft to every residential and commercial property we serve.
The leaders behind Simplified.
The people setting the direction — and still walking the projects.
Leif Handy
“I studied Landscape design and construction at Utah State, spent time learning the craft in Portland, and in 2007 my wife and I came home to Utah to start Simplified. It's been one of the best decisions we've ever made. Over the years I've come to love this work for reasons I didn't fully expect — not just the creativity and the challenge, but the people. The team we've built, the clients we've served, the relationships along the way. The landscapes outlast the projects, but the people make the journey worth it.”
Mathew Sutton
“I've been in the landscaping industry since I was 14 years old and have spent three decades working in every part of the business. Today, I'm a partner at Simplified Landscaping, where I help lead our team, serve our clients, and continue building a company we're proud of. What means the most to me is the people. I love watching our employees grow, create opportunities for their families, and take pride in the work they do. At the end of the day, success isn't just about beautiful landscapes—it's about making a positive difference in people's lives.
Kenton Cummins
“I came from healthcare. A master's in Health Administration, years teaching and building programs. But when the opportunity to join Simplified came along, something clicked. What started as a chance to improve operations became something much more meaningful. This team works hard, cares deeply, and shows up for each other in a way that's hard to find. Watching people grow here, gain confidence, develop skills, and build real careers is what motivates me every day. We're building something worth being proud of.”
Daniel Baum
“I got into landscaping after high school thinking it was temporary. It wasn't. I discovered I loved working outdoors, solving problems, and watching an idea transform into something real. That passion took me to Washington State for degrees in Landscape Architecture and eventually brought me to Utah and to Simplified. I see every project as a form of living art — the site is the canvas, the materials are the paint, and the result is something that only gets better with time. What keeps me here is the people and the craft.”
