Landscape Construction & Design in Lincoln, CA
Rated 4.9★ by Lincoln homeowners | Licensed - Bonded - Insured | Since 2008.
Lincoln runs on HOAs. Sun City Lincoln Hills alone is roughly 6,800 homes under one architectural review committee, and Catta Verdera, Lincoln Crossing, Twelve Bridges, and Verdera each have their own.
A landscape project in Lincoln isn’t really finished until the ARC signs off – and most stalls we see start with a submittal that wasn’t drawn to the community’s standards in the first place.
South Canyon Construction has been doing design-build landscaping in Lincoln since 2008. We draw to the ARC, build to the plan, and handle the back-and-forth so you don’t have to.
Our company is on Telegraph Ave in Orangevale. We run a regular schedule up Highway 65 to Lincoln, which lets us hold same-week site visits and full-day construction days on Lincoln jobs rather than half-day driveby work.
All of Our Lincoln Landscape Services
From an ARC-ready front-yard refresh in Sun City Lincoln Hills to a full backyard build with pavers, pergola, and outdoor kitchen in Catta Verdera, every trade on your project is handled in-house and under one contract.
Pick the service that fits what you have in mind – the scope, materials, and schedule we put on paper for any of them are the ones we actually build to.
Built for Sun City Lincoln Hills and Lincoln's Other HOAs
Each Lincoln HOA writes its own landscape rules, and a plan that passes one will get red-lined by another.
South Canyon Construction designs to the specific community standard before anything goes to submittal:
- Sun City Lincoln Hills (LHCA). Front-yard live-plant percentages, approved plant palette, hardscape coverage limits, no-artificial-turf-where-visible rules in some zones, wall and pillar height limits, and the LHCA ARC submittal package.
- Catta Verdera. Heavier scrutiny on hardscape materials, fence and gate detailing, and any structure visible from the golf course or street.
- Lincoln Crossing and Verdera. Master association front-yard standards, side-yard fencing rules, and the planting-coverage minimums newer homeowners often inherit without knowing.
- Twelve Bridges. Lot-specific setbacks and side-yard drainage requirements that change between the older and newer phases.
The submittal package we hand you is dimensioned, materials are specified, plant counts are shown against the approved palette, and the hardscape-to-softscape ratio is calculated. If the ARC comes back with a revision request, that revision is on us – not a change order on your invoice.
Low-Maintenance Design for Active-Adult Lincoln
A large share of our Lincoln projects are inside 55+ communities, and the design problem is different from a young-family backyard in Folsom or Roseville.
The goal isn’t more lawn to play on – it’s less yardwork, year-round curb appeal, and an outdoor living area you actually use without a maintenance crew on retainer.
What that looks like in practice:
- Less turf, more structured planting. Drought-tolerant shrubs and ornamental grasses on drip irrigation with a smart controller, planted in a layout that holds its shape as it matures.
- Walkable, slip-resistant hardscape. Wider paths, textured pavers, and flush transitions instead of step-downs where the lot allows.
- Shade and wind shelter. Pergolas and patio covers sited for late-afternoon sun and the westerly Delta wind that Lincoln catches harder than Roseville does.
- Mowing-free front yards. ARC-compliant plantings and turf alternatives that read like a designed yard, not a gravel pad.
- Outdoor living that gets used. Built-in seating, an outdoor fireplace or fire pit, and a covered cooking area that puts the backyard to work three seasons a year.
We’ve done this design conversation enough times in Lincoln Hills that we can show you what we mean on a sketch the first time we walk your lot.
