Landscape Renovation in the Greater Sacramento Area
Landscape Renovation That Adds Value in Sacramento, El Dorado, and Placer County
Signs Your Yard Needs a Landscape Renovation
Is your yard showing signs of age? Overgrown plants, cracked pathways, and outdated designs can make even the nicest homes look tired. At South Canyon Construction, we transform old, neglected yards into beautiful outdoor spaces that work for your lifestyle. We serve homeowners throughout Sacramento, Placer, and El Dorado Counties who want to breathe new life into their property.
Not sure if your yard needs a complete renovation or just some basic maintenance? Here are clear signs it’s time for a landscape makeover:
Overgrown Plants
Plants that have outgrown their space, block windows, or crowd walkways make your yard look messy and can damage your home’s foundation.
Damaged Hardscaping
Cracked patios, crumbling retaining walls, and broken steps are not just eyesores, they’re safety hazards that need professional attention.
Outdated Design
If your yard looks like it belongs in a different decade, a landscape renovation can bring it up to date with current styles and materials.
Our Landscape Renovation Process

At South Canyon Construction, we’ve developed a straightforward process to transform your yard with minimal stress. Here’s how we turn your tired landscape into a beautiful outdoor space:
- Initial Consultation – We visit your property, listen to your needs, and discuss your vision and budget.
- Custom Design – Our designers create a plan that addresses your specific needs while respecting your property’s unique features.
- Detailed Proposal – You receive a clear, itemized estimate with no hidden costs or surprises.
- Demolition and Preparation – We carefully remove unwanted elements and prepare the site for new features.
- Installation – Our skilled team builds your new landscape according to the approved design.
- Final Walkthrough – We inspect the completed project with you to ensure everything meets your expectations.
Unlike some contractors who only handle parts of a project, we manage everything from tear-out to the final build. This comprehensive approach saves you time and ensures a cohesive result.
