Municipal bylaws
Gutters: what the bylaw says in Notre-Dame-de-Pontmain
We haven't verified the official text for Notre-Dame-de-Pontmain yet. Here are the rules found in the vast majority of municipalities in the Laurentians and Lanaudière:
- Never connect a downspout to the foundation drain (weeping tile) or to the sewer: it is prohibited in most municipalities in Quebec.
- Release the water on the surface, onto a permeable area (lawn, flower bed), away from the foundation. Required distances generally range from 1 m to 2 m, and 1.5 m is the most common.
- Don't direct water toward the street, the driveway, the sidewalk or the neighbouring lot (Civil Code of Québec, art. 983).
Before any work, confirm the rule with the Notre-Dame-de-Pontmain urban planning department. During our inspection, we flag any downspout connected to the drain or emptying too close to the foundation.
