Your project in the canton of Glarus
The canton of Glarus occupies a narrow alpine valley framed by peaks, where the Linth flows down towards Lake Walen. The main town, Glarus, was largely rebuilt in the nineteenth century and has a regular street plan with stone buildings. Näfels and Mollis, to the north, feature mansions and residential districts, while Schwanden and Linthal, further up, retain former textile workers' housing. The mountain climate, with snow and the föhn wind, influences the choice of materials and the timing of outdoor work. The canton is German-speaking, but a request in English is entirely possible. For an old building or a change visible from the street, contact your municipality. Add the village or town and postcode, distinguishing the valley road from narrower routes to your building.
- In the upper valley, say whether the access road is affected by snow or closures.
- For a former worker's house, describe the condition of the roof and exterior walls.
- If your house is exposed to the föhn, mention it for any work on the roof or shutters.
Landscaping work in the canton of Glarus
The canton of Glarus is a narrow mountain land where houses line the floor of the Linth valley, overlooked by steep slopes. In Glarus and Näfels, gardens are often modest in size and bordered by stone walls, with vegetable plots, fruit trees and paved corners. The landscape gardener works there to restore low walls, stabilise banks, create outdoor steps or replant hedges suited to the shade cast by the mountains. The föhn, cold winters and snow call for hardy plants and well-anchored plantings. The old village houses deserve discreet landscaping that suits their character. If the project involves a fence, a wall or a tree to be removed, contact the municipality beforehand.
- In a Glarus garden with little winter sun, place the most tender plants against a south-facing wall.
- During föhn storms, young trees can be uprooted, so have them firmly staked for the first year.

Frequently asked questions
What should I tell the landscaper about my garden in Glarus?
Describe the area, the type of soil and the exposure to sun and wind. Explain what you want, such as lawns, beds, paths, a terrace or a hedge, and how much maintenance you can manage. Photos and a rough sketch help the landscaper prepare a proposal.
How should ground conditions be included in a landscaping brief?
Describe slopes, wet areas, exposed positions and existing plants to retain. Photographs and available site plans help locate these constraints. Ask for assessment of soil, drainage and access before agreeing planting or hard landscaping that relies on the ground's condition.
What should I compare in landscaper quotes?
Compare soil preparation, drainage, planting and hard surfaces against the same plan. Specify plant sizes, retained features and removal of existing material. Ask which maintenance instructions or follow-up are included, especially where new plants or lawns require care after handover.
How should I prepare for the landscaper visit or work?
Mark the features you want to keep on a plan and explain access for materials or machinery. Gather information about known underground services without digging to locate them. Agree protection of existing trees, neighbouring property and occupied outdoor routes before work begins.
