Lower Mainland — Vancouver, BC
From Kitsilano heritage homes to East Van townhouses and Olympic Village condos, Vancouver properties demand outdoor work that matches the neighborhood's character. The city's west coast climate means constant moisture, aggressive moss growth, and soil conditions that shift from sandy near the beaches to heavy clay inland. Whether you're building a retaining wall on a sloped Point Grey lot or pressure washing a Marpole driveway buried under a year of algae, RainCity delivers results that hold up to Vancouver's rain and look sharp in the summer sun.

Common questions from Vancouver homeowners about landscaping and hardscaping.
Landscaping costs in Vancouver depend on scope: basic lawn and garden work starts around $2,000-$5,000, while hardscaping projects like retaining walls and patios range from $8,000 to $25,000+. Vancouver's sloped lots and clay soil can add 10-20% in excavation and drainage costs compared to flat-terrain cities. We provide free on-site estimates with detailed material and labour breakdowns.
In Vancouver, retaining walls over 1.2 metres (4 feet) in height generally require a building permit from the City of Vancouver. Walls closer than 1.5 metres to a property line may also need permits regardless of height. We handle the permit process and can advise during the free consultation whether your project will trigger permit requirements.
The ideal window for hardscaping in Vancouver is March through October, when the ground is workable and rain is less persistent. That said, we work year-round — pressure washing and fence installations proceed through winter without issue. Booking early spring (February-March) locks in your spot before the summer rush.
