Many homeowners in the Greater Sacramento Area struggle with erosion, weed growth, and sun-scorched patches where grass won’t grow.
Traditional turf doesn’t always work in every part of your yard. Sloped areas, shaded corners, and pathways can suffer from erosion, compaction, or weed invasions.
Without the right ground cover, your landscape can look unfinished and require constant upkeep.
✅ Expertly installed ground cover for lasting performance

✅ Low-maintenance and climate-adapted options
✅ Boosts your curb appeal and landscape health

We add edging, bender board, or river rock borders to contain your ground cover and prevent shifting or runoff.
