Final Grading & Landscaping in Edmonton
New builds across Edmonton's outer neighbourhoods need a positive slope away from the foundation before the lot grading certificate clears. We rough grade, place screened topsoil and finish with sod or seed.

Why Edmonton homeowners call us
A1 Landscaping Decking and Fencing Ltd works across Edmonton, from mature inner-city lots to new builds on the outskirts. Deck and fence builds, paver patios, retaining walls, final grading, weekly mowing, spring cleanups and winter snow contracts — all handled by one crew.
Edmonton yards run the full range — narrow mature lots in Glenora and Ritchie with alley access and old clay soil, and wide new-build lots in Windermere and Laurel that still need final grade sign-off.
We're Edmonton-based, so most quotes inside the Henday are booked within a day or two and crews start early to beat afternoon heat.
Permits: handled through the City of Edmonton where your project needs one.

Edmonton questions, answered
- Do you pull City of Edmonton permits for me?
- Yes. Where a development or building permit is required we prepare the site plan and drawings and submit them through the City of Edmonton, then coordinate the inspection.
- Which parts of Edmonton do you cover?
- All of Edmonton — south to Ellerslie and Heritage Valley, west to Lewis Estates, north to Griesbach and Castle Downs, and east through Mill Woods and Clareview.
- What is a final grade certificate?
- It's the municipal sign-off confirming your lot drains correctly. New builds need it, and many builders hold back a deposit until it passes. We grade the yard to meet it and coordinate the survey.
- Why is water pooling near my foundation?
- Usually settled backfill or a yard that slopes the wrong way. Re-grading with proper fall away from the house, sometimes with a swale, fixes it.
