Hardscaping Contractor in Mission

Mission sits on the north side of the Fraser River where the valley floor meets the foothills of the Coast Mountains. From the compact urban core near the heritage downtown to the hillside communities of Silverdale and Hatzic, the city combines small-town character with terrain that demands serious hardscaping. The slopes here are real — and they reward builders who know how to work with them.

The lot types in Mission range widely. Urban compact zones (UC300, UC372) in the core have small footprints with 55% lot coverage and 60% impervious surface limits. Suburban properties in Cedar Valley and Ferndale offer larger lots but tighter impervious caps at 50%. Rural acreages out toward Stave Falls and Dewdney push lot sizes into the hectares with just 25% impervious surface allowed. Every zone in Mission has an explicit impervious surface cap — there is no guessing.

Mission shares its 0.6m retaining wall permit threshold with Maple Ridge — the strictest in our coverage area. Every wall over two feet needs a permit and full P.Eng. engineering. Wood is banned for structural walls over 0.6m, and blank concrete block is prohibited on residential lots. We specialize in the poured concrete, precast, and architectural masonry that Mission's bylaws require.
