New Look Landscapes builds to Calgary’s specific climate requirements:
- 8-12 inches of compacted granular base required for Calgary’s freeze-thaw cycle — deeper than most Canadian cities due to Chinook conditions that repeatedly thaw and refreeze ground through winter.
- Alberta clay soil requires granular backfill, perforated drainage pipe, and geogrid reinforcement behind retaining walls to prevent lateral movement and failure. Walls over 1.2 metres require a City of Calgary development permit and engineer-stamped drawings.
- Materials sourced from local Calgary suppliers and include Barkman, Techo-Bloc, and Belgard — engineered for Alberta’s climate.
- Drought-resistant yard design integrates hardscape and xeriscaping to reduce water use by 50–70% compared to conventional Calgary lawns, supporting City of Calgary WaterSmart guidelines.
