Two-tier segmental block retaining wall with built-in block steps and new sod lawn, Burnaby
Two-tier block retaining wall with built-in steps and new sod. Burnaby.

Burnaby's ridges and ravines mean a lot of sloped lots, especially around Capitol Hill, Burnaby Mountain and the South Slope down toward the Fraser. Older homes in these areas often have original drain tile and timber walls that are due for replacement.

In Burnaby, a building permit is needed for any retaining wall over 1.2 m, for terraced walls where any one wall is over 1.2 m, and for terraced walls steeper than 1:1. The permit needs structural drawings sealed by a professional engineer. For trees on a lot that isn't being developed, conifers about 30 cm (12 in) and up and broadleaf trees about 46 cm (18 in) and up, measured at 1.3 m, are protected; on lots with a development application, the threshold drops to about 20 cm (8 in).
