Landscaper on Hazel Avenue, Orangevale CA
From Close-In Lots to Horse Property, Built RightHazel Avenue runs through the middle of Orangevale, and no two stretches need the same yard plan. We build for both ends of it.
Based on Greenback Ln, just off Hazel Avenue. Same crew, every project.
What Yards Along Hazel Avenue Are Working With
Hazel Avenue runs straight through the middle of Orangevale, and the yards along it change character as you go. Near Central Ave and Elm Ave, lots sit closer together on established quarter and half acre parcels. Head north past Oak Ave, Pershing Ave, and Greenback Ln, and parcels start to open up. By the stretch near Woodbridge Ranch, close to the Placer County line, an acre or more is common, and horses are part of daily life on more than a few properties. The average lot on Hazel Ave in Orangevale runs a little over an acre once you count the whole corridor, though the number hides just how different one end is from the other.
One thing does not change along the way. The clay loam soil under all of Orangevale runs the same under Hazel Avenue, from the tightest lot to the largest. Winter rain sits in low spots and summer heat bakes the ground hard by July, no matter how much land you have.
What We Build Along Hazel Avenue
We match the plan to the property. Closer to town, that means grading, drainage, irrigation, and planting designed for a standard suburban lot, the same work we do across Orangevale every week. Toward the county line, it means bigger jobs: durable fencing, mud control near gates and paddocks, and drainage systems sized for a lot of ground instead of a small yard. Both ends of Hazel Avenue get the same crew and the same standard, just scaled to the property.
Horse property owners looking for guidance on pasture and land management can find useful research through UC Cooperative Extension's horse management page. To see the rest of what we build, start with our Orangevale landscaper page.

Questions About Landscaping in Hazel Avenue
Does McGuire Earth Works work all along Hazel Avenue?+
Yes. Hazel Avenue runs through the heart of Orangevale, and our shop on Greenback Ln sits just off it. We build yards from the tighter lots near Central Ave and Elm Ave up through the larger properties toward the Placer County line. One crew handles every project from the first site visit to the final walkthrough. No subcontractors and no handoffs, so the plan you approve is the yard you get, no matter which stretch of Hazel Avenue you call home.
Do you build on the larger lots near the county line?+
Yes. The stretch of Hazel Avenue near Woodbridge Ranch, close to the Placer County line, holds some of the largest lots we work on, many over an acre and several with horses. That kind of property needs a different plan than a quarter acre lot in town. We handle mud control near gates and paddocks, durable fencing lines, and drainage sized for a much bigger piece of ground. Every plan starts with how you actually use the property, not a one size fits all design.
What is the biggest yard problem near Central Ave and Elm Ave?+
Standing water and thin lawns, most years. That stretch of Hazel Avenue sits on the same dense clay loam soil found across Orangevale, so winter rain pools in low spots and summer heat bakes the ground hard by July. Many of these lots also carry original 1970s and 1980s irrigation that no longer covers the yard evenly. We fix the grading and drainage first, then rebuild irrigation and planting beds so the yard holds up through both seasons instead of fighting them every year.
