The process of yard grading typically involves assessing the current slope, removing excess soil, and reshaping the terrain to achieve the desired grade. This work usually takes one to several days depending on the size and complexity of the yard. Equipment such as bulldozers, graders, and skid steers are commonly used to efficiently shape the landscape.
Resloping projects may involve regrading existing slopes to improve drainage or correct erosion issues. Proper planning and execution ensure water flows away from foundations and prevents pooling or flooding. The work is performed with precision to maintain the correct slope, often between 2% and 5%, depending on local requirements.
