What to know before hiring a landscaper in Terrebonne

Lawn care and planting need no licence in Quebec. Retaining walls above a certain height, decks, fences on property lines and anything that changes drainage toward a neighbour can need a municipal permit in Terrebonne, and an underground locate is required by law before digging near services. Ask who calls for the locate.

Water restrictions and pesticide rules are municipal or provincial and change year to year; a local company will know the current stage. For irrigation, a backflow preventer is required by most water utilities and is tested annually.

Terrebonne is a fast-growing North Shore suburb with an old town on the Rivière des Mille Îles, which flooded in 2017 and 2019, and large post-2000 subdivisions in La Plaine and Lachenaie where builders installed heat pumps and electric heating as standard. Quebec’s RBQ licensing applies to every contractor.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Terrebonne?

Often yes above a threshold height set by the municipality, and always if it holds back a slope near a building. Check with the Terrebonne permit office; a landscaper who has built walls locally will know the number.

Can a landscaper change the grading around my house?

Yes, and it is one of the most useful things they can do for a wet basement, but grading that sends water toward a neighbour can be a bylaw problem. Ask for a plan that drains to the street or a drywell.

Are lawn pesticides allowed in Quebec?

Rules differ by province and municipality and change frequently; many Canadian cities restrict cosmetic pesticide use. A licensed applicator will know what is currently permitted in Terrebonne.

When should I book seasonal landscaping in Terrebonne?

Spring clean-ups and fall closings fill up weeks in advance; a company that also plows or removes snow may bundle the year. Book before the season, not during it.
