Query scopes may help you to let your code more readable.

http://laravel.com/docs/eloquent#query-scopes

Updating this answer with some example:

In your model, create scopes methods like this:

public function scopeActive($query)
{
    return $query->where('active', '=', 1);
}

public function scopeThat($query)
{
    return $query->where('that', '=', 1);
}

Then, you can call this scopes while building your query:

$users = User::active()->that()->get();
