Why Grading Matters

Proper grading is the foundation of every stable structure, driveway, and landscape. Without it, water collects where it shouldn’t, surfaces wash out, and future projects fail. Our grading and site prep services give you a level, compacted base that supports whatever you’re building next—whether it’s a home, garage, barn, shop pad, or family compound.

What We Grade & Prepare

  • Building Pads: Level, compacted bases for homes, garages, shops, and barns.

  • Driveway Crowns & Access Roads: Re-crown existing driveways, cut new access, or widen paths.

  • Drainage Corrections: Adjust grades to shed water away from foundations, yards, or problem areas.

  • Trails & Parking Pads: Create usable access trails or small gravel/soil pads for parking and equipment.

We tailor every grading plan to your soil type, slope, and water flow so the work holds up for years.

FAQs

  • We always compact to ensure the pad or driveway crown doesn’t shift. Skipping compaction is the main reason DIY or cheap jobs fail.

  • Yes, we source quality fill or gravel as needed. Delivery cost depends on distance and material type.

  • We use compact but powerful tracked machines designed for residential access, so we can work efficiently without tearing up your yard.

  • Often, yes. By reshaping grades, we can move water away from structures and into proper swales or ditches. In some cases, we’ll combine grading with a French drain or culvert.

  • If the pad is compacted and dry, you can typically build right away. On wet soils, we may recommend letting it settle or adding stone.

  • For most small grading projects, no. If your property is in a subdivision with an HOA, or near streams/wetlands, you may need approval. We’ll point out any concerns during the site walk.
