Why is proper grading important?

Proper grading prevents water from pooling near foundations, directs runoff away from buildings, prevents soil erosion, and creates stable surfaces for construction. Poor grading leads to foundation damage, flooding, and drainage problems.

What's the difference between rough and finish grading?

Rough grading establishes overall site elevations and major features. Finish grading achieves precise final elevations and smooth surfaces ready for construction, paving, or landscaping. Most projects require both.

Do you work with site engineers?

Yes, we work directly from engineering plans and collaborate with civil engineers, surveyors, and builders to achieve required grades and specifications. We can also provide simple grading plans for residential projects.

Can you fix existing drainage problems?

Absolutely. We evaluate existing grades, identify problem areas, and re-grade to correct drainage issues. This may involve creating swales, adjusting slopes, or regrading around foundations.
