Frequently Asked Questions
How do I hold soil on a sloped lot?▾
With terraces, well-drained walls and plantings whose roots bind the soil. A single bare slope always ends up eroding in heavy rain.
Why does a retaining wall start leaning?▾
Almost always water trapped behind it. A drain and granular backfill behind the wall matter as much as the blocks themselves.
Where should runoff go?▾
Toward an absorption area or the system designed for it, never toward your foundation or the neighbour's lot. Redirecting water onto someone else can make you liable.
What season for the work?▾
Spring through fall. Request quotes as early as winter to get a date within the season.
Do I need a permit for a wall?▾
Depending on height and location, the city may require one. Check before ordering materials.
Landscaper in Sherbrooke: what to know
Sherbrooke is a city of slopes, and landscaping here almost always starts with a water question.
Runoff
On a sloped lot, rain and meltwater run fast and carry soil with them. A well-designed layout slows water and directs it: terraces, retaining walls, absorption areas, plantings that hold the soil. A poorly designed one sends water toward your basement or the neighbour's.
Retaining walls
Common here, and they work against soil pressure. Above a certain height their design is not improvised, and drainage behind the wall is essential to keep it from tipping.
Interlocking pavers
Base compacted in lifts and solid edge restraints, otherwise frost and slope will move everything within two or three winters.
Licence
For a retaining wall or exterior stairs, ask for the RBQ licence, liability insurance and a CNESST clearance.
