A Better Yard Starts With the Right Plan
Maybe your patio feels disconnected from the rest of the yard. The lawn takes more effort than you want to give it, or there are areas you avoid because they stay muddy or never feel finished. You may already know what you dislike without knowing how to bring everything together.
At Caligreen, we start with how you want to use your space. We help you consider the layout, materials, planting, irrigation, and preparation your project needs before construction begins. Whether you are updating your front yard or planning a complete backyard renovation, the goal is the same: an outdoor space that feels like it belongs with your home and your everyday life.
Our Landscaping Services in Citrus Heights
Your project might center on a new patio, a more practical lawn area, or a complete change to the way your yard looks and functions. We bring the necessary improvements together so you can plan the finished space—not just one feature at a time.
Landscape Design & Backyard Renovations
Turn your ideas into a clear direction for your front or backyard. We help you work through layout choices, material options, planting areas, and the features that matter most to you. When the project calls for detailed drawings or 3D visuals, we coordinate with landscape designers and clarify that scope as part of planning.
Paver & Concrete Installation
Create room for outdoor dinners, a comfortable seating area, or a more welcoming approach to your home. We install paver and concrete patios, walkways, and other hardscape features, helping you consider how their shape, finish, and placement will connect with the surrounding landscape.
Retaining Walls, Drainage & Grading
Make better use of uneven ground and address water concerns as part of your landscape project. We evaluate the areas being renovated and plan appropriate grading, retaining walls, and drainage improvements. Where a French drain or another drainage system makes sense, we consider it within the overall layout rather than treating it as a one-size-fits-all fix.
Sod, Artificial Turf & Irrigation
Choose a lawn area that fits how you use your yard and how much upkeep you want. We install natural sod and artificial turf, along with new sprinkler systems and major irrigation replacements. The lawn layout and irrigation plan are considered together so the finished installation suits the space. Our irrigation work focuses on new systems and larger upgrades rather than small repair calls.
Water-Efficient Landscaping
A yard with less lawn does not have to feel empty. Bring together planting beds, appropriately selected plants, mulch, and usable outdoor areas in a layout designed around your watering and maintenance priorities. We help you consider where lawn is useful and where a different landscape feature may be a better fit.
Outdoor Kitchens, Pergolas & Outdoor Living
Give your backyard more ways to bring people together. Outdoor kitchens, pergolas, gazebos, patio covers, and fire-pit areas can create places to cook, gather, and relax. Ponds and water features can add another element to the space. We help you plan how these features fit with your patio, access routes, and surrounding landscape.
Landscaping for the Way You Live in Citrus Heights
Landscaping in Citrus Heights, CA, often involves updating older yards that were not designed with long-term performance in mind. Many properties struggle with compacted soil, inefficient irrigation, drainage issues, and outdoor spaces that no longer meet the homeowner’s needs. Without proper planning, these problems tend to repeat themselves.
From Park Oaks and Sunrise Ranch to Birdcage Heights and the Sylvan–Old Auburn Road area, we welcome landscaping inquiries from homeowners throughout Citrus Heights. Your neighborhood tells us where the project is; your property and priorities determine how we approach it.

How Your Landscaping Project Comes Together
Tell Us About Your Yard
Share your ideas, the problems you would like to address, and your approximate budget. Photos are helpful, but you do not need to arrive with a finished design to start the conversation.
Review the Plan & Proposal
We evaluate the project, discuss the proposed improvements, and define the work included. You can review the layout direction, material choices, and pricing before deciding how to move forward.
Build Your New Outdoor Space
Once the scope and schedule are agreed upon, our installation team gets to work. We keep you informed as the project progresses and finish with a walkthrough of the completed work.
What Does Landscaping Cost in Citrus Heights?
The right budget depends on what your yard needs and what you want to build. A project that combines demolition, drainage, a new patio, and planting will have a different scope than an installation focused on one area of the property. Access, materials, preparation, and the size of the work all factor into the proposal.
Caligreen’s minimum total project cost is $8,000. That minimum applies to the overall project, not the price of every individual feature included within it.
Sharing your budget early helps us have a useful conversation about priorities. We can discuss which improvements matter most and whether a different material, layout, or phased approach would better suit your plans.
Citrus Heights Landscaping FAQs
Do I need a permit for a patio cover or retaining wall in Citrus Heights?
Depending on the project, yes. The City of Citrus Heights lists patio covers and certain retaining walls among projects requiring building permits. Electrical and plumbing additions can also require permits. Some work is exempt, but an exemption from a building permit does not necessarily remove setback or other planning requirements. Before finalizing the layout, confirm the applicable requirements with the city’s Building & Safety and Planning divisions.
Can we install a patio or change the landscaping around an existing oak tree?
An existing oak can affect where and how new landscaping is installed. Citrus Heights’ tree-protection rules can apply to construction and grading within a protected tree’s protection zone—even when the tree is staying. Before planning excavation, a retaining wall, or a patio close to an oak, confirm whether the tree and property are covered by those rules and whether a tree permit or arborist report is needed. Tree species, size, and applicable property exemptions matter.
Are there water-saving programs available for Citrus Heights homeowners?
There may be, but eligibility depends on which water provider serves your address. The city lists Citrus Heights Water District, California American Water, and Sacramento Suburban Water District as water providers, so a Citrus Heights mailing address alone does not establish eligibility for a particular district’s program.
For eligible Citrus Heights Water District customers, the district currently advertises a free smart irrigation controller, including installation, after a required irrigation-efficiency review. The offer is limited to one controller per service connection and is available while supplies last. This is a district-run program, not a Caligreen promotion. Confirm eligibility and availability directly with your provider before including an incentive in your project budget.
Does landscaping work near the sidewalk or street require additional approval?
It can. Citrus Heights requires an encroachment permit when work takes place in, or affects, the public right-of-way, including streets and sidewalks. This can matter when a project includes frontage improvements or requires a dumpster or temporary obstruction in that area. The city distinguishes this from a container placed entirely on a private driveway without affecting the right-of-way. Confirm the work area and staging plan before construction begins.
