Folsom backyards tend to be bigger projects: a full patio with a fire pit or outdoor kitchen, seat walls, and retaining walls to make a sloped lot usable. Newer neighborhoods like Empire Ranch and Broadstone often come with a bare or builder-grade backyard and a lot of grade to work with.
Ground here is different from the valley floor. Many lots have rock and decomposed granite close to the surface, which means planning for rock breakout during excavation and building walls and steps that work with the slope instead of against it.
The City of Folsom reviews taller retaining walls and covered structures, protects native oaks, and many neighborhoods have an HOA that wants plans for backyard work. We flag what applies at your address before giving a price.

From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, the communication was excellent. Every question was answered clearly and the finished patio exceeded our expectations.
