Landscaping Placerville CA | Call Angels Landscape

In our area, soil composition, freeze-thaw cycles, and gravity on slopes can cause rocks to shift. We fix this by excavating the area, installing a proper compacted base and landscape fabric, and strategically setting the rocks with locking techniques and soil amendments to create a stable, long-lasting feature that won't slide or settle unevenly.

Absolutely. Improper grading directs water toward your home's foundation, leading to potential flooding, erosion, and basement moisture issues. We correct this by carefully re-grading your lawn to create a gentle slope away from structures, ensuring proper surface drainage that protects your home's foundation—a critical service for many Placerville properties.

For lasting erosion control on slopes, we recommend a combined approach. This often includes re-grading to manage water flow, installing a French drain or dry creek bed for drainage, and using stabilizing elements like retaining walls, terracing, or deep-rooted native plants. We design a custom system that works with the land to prevent future soil loss and shifting.
