Landscape Design in Citrus Heights, CA
A Real Plan for a Yard That Never Had OneMost Citrus Heights homes near Old Town and Birdcage Walk got a builder-grade yard decades ago and nothing since. We design the yard that should have come with the house.
About 3.7 miles from our Orangevale shop. Same crew, every project.
Why Citrus Heights Yards Need a Real Plan
Citrus Heights grew fast through the 60s, 70s, and 80s, and most homes near the Old Town district on Greenback Lane and the Birdcage Walk area got the same thing when they were built: a strip of sod, a few foundation shrubs, and sprinklers on a single zone. That was never a plan. It was whatever the builder could finish fastest.
Decades later those yards show it. Shrubs have outgrown their spot against the house. Trees planted too close to the foundation now crowd windows and walkways. There is no real separation between the space where you park, the space where you sit outside, and the space that is just grass. A real design fixes all of that at once instead of patching pieces one year at a time.
How We Design Citrus Heights Yards
We start with a full site visit, not a guess from the street. We map your sun, your soil, your slope, and how your family actually uses the yard, then draw a complete plan for the whole property. That plan accounts for city setback rules so nothing gets built too close to a property line or has to be moved later.
The City of Citrus Heights publishes its setback and site development standards, which is worth a look if you want to understand what your lot allows before we sit down. Once the design is set, the same crew that draws the plan builds it. If you want to see the full range of what we handle in the city, start with our page as a landscaper in Citrus Heights, CA.

Questions About Landscape Design in Citrus Heights, CA
Does McGuire Earth Works design yards in Citrus Heights?+
Yes. Citrus Heights sits about 3.7 miles from our shop, and we design full yards for homes throughout the city, including the Old Town and Birdcage areas where a lot of the original landscaping has never been updated. We map your sun, soil, and slope on a site visit, then draw a complete plan for the property. One crew builds what we design, so the plan on paper matches what actually goes into the ground.
Can you fix a yard that never had a real design?+
Yes, that is one of the most common calls we get in Citrus Heights. Many homes got a basic builder layout decades ago and nothing since. We start over with a full plan that separates parking, seating, and lawn areas, fixes plants crowding the house, and gives the yard actual structure. You get to see the design before anything is built.
How long does landscape design take before construction starts?+
It depends on the size of the project, but most Citrus Heights designs take a few weeks from the first site visit to an approved plan. We walk the property, talk through your goals and budget, then bring back a design for your review. Once you approve it, the same crew moves into construction so there is no gap where the project sits waiting on a different company.
