Your project in the canton of Vaud
The canton of Vaud stretches from the shores of Lake Geneva to the Vaud Alps. Lausanne, built on steep slopes, has many older rental buildings, condominium flats and streets where parking is difficult. On the Riviera, Vevey and Montreux combine Belle Époque buildings with villas overlooking the lake, while the slopes of Lavaux are covered in terraced vineyards. Nyon and Morges combine old towns and residential districts. Yverdon-les-Bains, at the end of Lake Neuchâtel, and Payerne, in the Broye, open onto more rural surroundings. In the Chablais and the Alps, around Aigle, chalets and mountain houses contend with snow. For a façade, windows or an extension, approval may be required, so check with your municipality. State the municipality and postcode, the type of property and access to the rooms or outdoor areas concerned.
- In Lausanne, describe the slope of the street, the floor and parking options for a works vehicle.
- For a winegrower's house in Lavaux, describe access via the vineyard paths and the space available.
- For a chalet in the Vaud Alps, give the altitude and the period when the road is clear.
Landscaping work in the canton of Vaud
The canton of Vaud brings together the shores of Lake Geneva, the vineyards of Lavaux, the Swiss Plateau, the Jura and the Vaud Alps. In Nyon and along La Côte, villas and properties with lake views call for terraces, privacy hedges, lawns and sometimes swimming pools to be integrated into the garden. On the wine-growing slopes, stone vineyard walls and sloping ground steer the design towards terraced gardens. Around Yverdon-les-Bains, family homes and apartment buildings on the Plateau need convivial, low-maintenance green spaces. Chalets in the Vaud Alps need robust planting that copes with snow. Felling a tree, building a wall or putting up a fence should be clarified beforehand with the municipality.
- For a property on Lake Geneva, choose plants that withstand the wind off the lake and the glare reflected from terraces.
- In a sloping garden near the vineyards, a dry-stone wall holds back the soil while offering shelter to lizards.

Frequently asked questions
What should I tell the landscaper about my garden in Vaud?
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.
