Absolutely thrilled with the paver patio PGC installed at my home in Port Coquitlam! The quality of work was excellent, the team was professional, and the finished result looks fantastic. They did a great job from start to finish, and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend PGC!

I cannot recommend Premier Grounds Contracting Ltd enough! From start to finish, the entire team was professional, reliable, and incredibly skilled. They transformed my backyard into a stunning modern oasis with new grass, a beautiful patio, and a retaining wall with built in planters that exceeded my expectations. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident every step of the way.
Tristan H., Google review
They transformed my backyard with new artificial grass, a retaining wall, and modern landscaping that turned out even better than I expected! Gareth and the crew showed up on time every day, communicated clearly throughout the project, and left the site clean and tidy at the end of each day. Highly recommend them if you're looking for quality landscape construction done right.

How a project runs

  1. Site visit

    We walk the property, check slope, access and where water goes, and confirm what permits apply.

  2. Written estimate

    A written price for the agreed scope. Engineering and permits are listed up front when they're needed.

  3. Build

    Our crew runs the build. We keep you updated and the site tidy every day.

  4. Walkthrough

    We go over the finished work with you and leave the site clean.

Built to the local rules

Each Tri-Cities municipality sets its own limits for walls and trees. We check them at the first site visit so permits don’t catch you off guard.

Coquitlam

Retaining walls over 1.2 m need a building permit and an engineered design. No wall may exceed 2.4 m. Trees 20 cm and up (measured at 1.4 m) are protected; two removals a year are allowed without a permit on most lots.

Port Coquitlam

Every tree removal needs a replacement tree, and a significant tree needs two. The permit application has to include an approved replacement plan.

Port Moody

Tree permits apply to most trees 30 cm and up, and 10 cm and up in sensitive or riparian areas. Removals from March 1 to August 31 may need a nesting survey.

What goes behind a wall that lasts. Most failures start with missing drainage.

Book a site visit before spring fills up

Fall and winter are the best time to plan walls, drainage and decks. You see exactly where the water goes, and you're first on the schedule when the dry weather arrives.
