About Us
Unsure Lot Grading Is Right For You?
What is lot grading and why is it important?
Lot grading involves levelling and shaping the surface of your lot to ensure proper drainage, stability, and durability. By creating a smooth, even surface, grading enhances the functionality and longevity of your lot, providing a safer and more aesthetically pleasing entrance to your property.
Can lot grading help with drainage issues?
Yes, proper lot grading is crucial for effective drainage. By creating a slight slope or crown in the lot, grading ensures that water flows away from the surface, preventing pooling and reducing the risk of erosion and damage. This helps maintain the integrity and longevity of the lot.
What is the process of lot grading?
The lot grading process typically involves the following steps:
- Assessment: Evaluating the current condition of the lot and identifying areas that need attention.
- Preparation: Clearing the lot of debris, loose materials, and any obstacles.
- Grading: Using specialized equipment to level and shape the surface, ensuring proper drainage and stability.
- Compaction: Compacting the graded surface to enhance its durability and longevity.
- Finishing Touches: Adding any necessary materials, such as gravel, to complete the grading process.
What are the signs that my driveway needs grading?
Common signs that your lot needs grading include:
- Potholes and Ruts: These indicate uneven surfaces and can worsen over time if not addressed.
- Water Pooling: Puddles forming on the lot suggest improper drainage.
- Erosion: Visible erosion on or around the lot indicates the need for regrading to restore proper drainage.
- Surface Cracks: Cracks can result from an uneven foundation and may require grading to prevent further damage.
