Yard grading and regrading involve precise assessment and shaping of the terrain to achieve optimal drainage and stability. The process typically includes initial site evaluation, removal of obstructions, and the use of heavy machinery to sculpt the yard's surface. After grading, the area may be compacted and stabilized to ensure long-term performance. The duration and complexity depend on the yard's size and existing conditions.
Properly graded yards help prevent water pooling, soil erosion, and foundation issues. The work often involves multiple steps, including planning, excavation, reshaping, and finishing touches. Equipment such as graders, bulldozers, and compactors are commonly used to achieve the desired slope and surface quality.
