Rimouski: curb work costs 25% more in winter
In Rimouski, redoing a house driveway takes no permit as long as the parking area is under 300 m², and compacted gravel is still allowed for 1–3 dwelling homes. Touching the curb is another matter: only the City may cut it, at the owner’s cost, after a $45 certificate. The 2026 rates: $100 per metre of sawing and $195 per metre to build an entrance, but from November 1 to May 1, the entrance rises to $243.75 per metre and sawing is billed at actual cost. We schedule a widening so the City cuts before November, and we design the driveway to stay under 50% of the front yard.
