What Port Moody yards need
Port Moody wraps around the end of Burrard Inlet, and much of it is steep. On Heritage Mountain, College Park and Glenayre, a sloped yard usually needs retaining walls to make flat space, timber steps to get up and down, and fences that follow the hill.
With the rain here, a covered pergola is one of the best ways to keep a patio or deck usable through the wet months.

Before you build in Port Moody
These are the City rules that most often decide how tall a fence or wall can be. Rules change, so check with the City for your lot, or ask us when you text.
- Retaining walls
- Walls over 1.2 m (4 ft) need a building permit.
- Where walls can go
- New retaining walls can’t be built right on a rear or interior side property line. Taller walls have to be set back from it.
- Trees
- Some trees need a permit to remove, and the permit usually means planting two trees for each one taken out.
- Fence height
- Set by the City’s Zoning Bylaw. Check the limit for your lot before a tall fence goes up.
From the City of Port Moody’s Good Neighbour Guidelines (December 2018). Rules can change, so confirm with the City for your lot.

Questions from Port Moody homeowners
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Port Moody?
Yes, once the wall is over 1.2 m (4 ft). New walls also can’t sit right on a back or side property line.
Can you build on a steep yard?
Yes. We build block and timber retaining walls, timber steps and fences that step down a slope. Send photos from the top and the bottom of the slope and we’ll tell you what it needs.
Do I need a permit to take out a tree in Port Moody?
Sometimes. Port Moody protects some trees, and removing one can need a permit that comes with replanting. Check with the City before anything is cut.
