Why Nevada City Homeowners & Businesses Choose Modern Era Construction

Nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills at about 2,500 feet elevation, Nevada City (population ≈ 3,200 permanent residents, swelling significantly with tourists and second-home owners) is known for its historic Victorian charm, vibrant arts scene, and year-round outdoor lifestyle. With four distinct seasons, heavy winter snow, hot summers, and the ever-present risk of wildfire, local properties demand hardscapes built to handle freeze-thaw cycles, steep slopes, drainage challenges, and extreme temperature swings — exactly what Modern Era Construction specializes in.

Whether you’re on a historic lot off Broad Street, a modern home in the Cascade Shores subdivision, or a commercial property along Highway 49, we design and install hardscape features that are beautiful, functional, and built to last decades in our unique mountain climate.

What Our Nevada City Customers Are Saying

★★★★★ “Modern Era Construction completely transformed our backyard into the outdoor living space we always dreamed of. The new paver patio, built-in fire pit, and seat walls, and outdoor kitchen are stunning. They handled the permitting with the City of Nevada City flawlessly and finished on time. Highly recommend!” — Sarah & Mark T., Nevada City, CA 95959

★★★★★ “We needed a large retaining wall rebuilt after storm damage on our Deer Creek property. The crew was professional, showed up when they said they would (rare these days!), and the new boulder wall looks like it’s always been there. Couldn’t be happier.” — Tom R., Nevada City

★★★★★ “Best hardscape contractor in Nevada County, hands down. They installed a beautiful flagstone walkway and new front entry patio that dramatically increased our home’s curb appeal before we listed it. Sold in 4 days!” — Jennifer L., Grass Valley (serving 95945 & 95949)

★★★★★ “As a local restaurant owner on Commercial Street, we hired Modern Era to redesign our outdoor dining courtyard. The new pavers, fire tables, and planters brought in way more evening customers. Worth every penny.” — Mike D., Downtown Nevada City
