Common Questions

What is the difference between rough grading and finish grading?

Rough grading shapes the overall terrain and removes major high/low spots. Finish grading fine-tunes the surface for a specific use like a foundation pour or sod installation.

Can grading fix my drainage problem?

In many cases, yes. Reshaping the grade to direct water away from structures is one of the most common reasons property owners call for grading work.

Do I need grading before building?

Almost always. A level, properly sloped surface prevents foundation issues and drainage problems down the road.

How do you determine the right grade?

Jason evaluates the site, your intended use, and local drainage patterns. For projects requiring engineering specs, we work to the provided plans.
