Your project in the canton of Neuchâtel

The canton of Neuchâtel rises in tiers from the lake to the high plateaus of the Jura. On the lakeshore, the city of Neuchâtel is marked by the yellow stone of its old buildings and its sloping streets, while Boudry and Cortaillod are surrounded by vineyards and residential districts. In the mountains, La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle, watchmaking towns laid out on a grid plan, are lined with large old apartment buildings at an altitude where winter is long. The Val-de-Travers, around Fleurier, and the Val-de-Ruz offer a more rural setting of farmhouses and village houses. Building conditions vary greatly between lakeside and heights. For a façade in an old town or an extension, check with your municipality whether approval is needed. State the municipality, postcode and site access, especially if outdoor work is planned during winter.

  • For an old building in La Chaux-de-Fonds or Le Locle, give the floor and describe access via the stairwell.
  • On the lakeshore, for a house on a slope, describe the steps or paths leading to the entrance.
  • In the mountains, plan outdoor work outside the snow season and say so in your request.

Landscaping work in the canton of Neuchâtel

The canton of Neuchâtel stretches from the wine-growing lakeshore to the heights of the Neuchâtel mountains. On the lakeshore, around the cantonal capital, terraced gardens, often supported by vineyard walls, enjoy a mild climate and open views. Mediterranean-style spaces, pergolas and heat-tolerant beds are readily created there. In La Chaux-de-Fonds, at altitude, long winters and the wind limit the choice of plants, and the gardens of apartment buildings and workers' houses tend to become vegetable plots, flowering meadows and country hedges. The canton's limestone walls are restored with care. Walls, fences and trees to be removed may be subject to conditions, so ask your municipality.

  • In a terraced garden on the lakeshore, have the retaining walls checked before planting trees with vigorous roots.
  • In the Neuchâtel mountains, wait until the late frosts are over before planting beds of annual flowers.

Frequently asked questions

What should I tell the landscaper about my garden in Neuchâtel?

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.
