Canepa Landscaping
Complete Outdoor Environments, Designed and Built by One Team
Canepa Landscaping is a Windsor-based design-build landscape contractor serving Sonoma County and the North Bay. We design and build complete outdoor environments: full front and back yard landscapes, backyard renovations, retaining walls, patios, outdoor kitchens, turf and full irrigation.
One licensed team manages planning, permits, grading and construction from concept to completion, so the people who design your project are accountable for how it is built. Chad and Shawn Canepa founded the company in 2014 and are longtime North Bay residents.
One Licensed Team, From First Sketch to Final Walkthrough
Your outdoor space deserves the same planning as the interior. Canepa Landscaping produces buildable plans, coordinates permits and builds the project itself, so scope, budget and schedule stay with one accountable team.
We take on large projects: full front and back yard designs, complete backyard renovations, retaining walls, patios, outdoor kitchens and full irrigation. Structural planning, grading and drainage are handled to spec inside the project, so the work is built correctly the first time.
Landscape Design
Residential and Commercial
Whether you have barely fleshed-out ideas or a clear vision for your residential or commercial property, Canepa Landscaping supports you with knowledgeable professionals who can help you come up with a plan. From hardscape recommendations to expertise when it comes to availability, we help to take the guesswork out of turning your ideas into a real set of buildable plans based on your must-haves and best practices as well as compliance with local regulations.
Landscape Construction
Residential and Commercial
Now that you have a plan, it’s important to find a landscape contractor that makes those plans a reality. At Canepa Landscaping, we are your single source for defining the vision with a plan and erecting those plans in accordance with applicable codes and local regulations. Not only do we make your outdoor spaces everything you want them to be, we work with you to develop a scope, budget and schedule that meets your requirements.
HARDSCAPE SERVICES
Hardscape Construction in Sonoma County
Hardscape is the permanent structure of your landscape. We design and build each element as part of a complete plan so grades, materials and utilities work together.
Patios & Pavers
Paver and concrete patios designed around how you use the yard, with proper base preparation, edging and surface grade so they stay level for years.
Walkways and Steps
Front walkways, garden paths and steps in pavers, natural stone, concrete or decomposed granite, laid out for width, grade and safe footing.
Landscape Lighting
Let there be light. Create moods, vibes and all-day functionality with a customized approach to lighting design that enhances the appearance of your property’s outdoor spaces.
Retaining Walls
Structural, permitted retaining walls that terrace sloped yards into usable space. We plan grading and drainage behind the wall so it is built to hold.
Outdoor Kitchens
Built-in grills, counters, bars and seating, with gas, electrical and permit requirements planned from the start. Pergolas and shade structures can be built into the layout.
Fire Features
Fire pits, fireplaces and fire tables built into your patio and seating design, with clearances and materials planned for safe, year-round use.
SOFTSCAPE SERVICES
Softscape Design and Installation in Sonoma County
Softscape is the living layer: plants, lawn areas and the irrigation that supports them. We design it with the hardscape so the finished landscape works as one plan.
Ornamental Planting Design
Planting plans with structure, seasonal color and layered texture, selected for Sonoma County soil, sun and water conditions
Trees, Shrubs and Groundcover
Layered plantings of trees, shrubs and groundcover placed for scale, privacy and year-round structure installed as part of a complete landscape.
Drought-Tolerant Planting
Water-efficient plant palettes, mulch and drip irrigation that cut water use while keeping the yard full and finished.
Sod and Natural Lawn Installation
New natural lawn areas installed over properly graded, prepared and irrigated soil, sized to the yard and designed into the overall plan.
Artificial Turf
Year-round green lawn areas installed over a graded, compacted and drained base, for yards where natural lawn struggles.
Full Irrigation Installation
Complete drip and spray systems designed with the planting plan, zoned by water need and installed with the landscape instead of added afterward.
