Professional yard grading involves assessing the existing slope, removing excess soil or adding fill, and shaping the land to achieve the desired slope. Equipment such as excavators and grading blades are used to ensure precision and efficiency. The process typically takes a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the size and complexity of the project.
Resloping may be necessary when existing slopes no longer function effectively or have shifted over time. Regrading restores proper drainage and prevents water pooling, ensuring the yard remains stable and attractive.
