If you've got water pooling in your yard, running toward your house, or flooding your driveway every time it rains — you have a grading problem. And the good news is, it's fixable.
What Is Grading?
Grading is the process of shaping the ground surface to a specific slope. Proper grading ensures water flows away from structures, doesn't pool in low spots, and doesn't erode slopes and hillsides.
Common Drainage Problems Grading Can Fix
- Water pooling in the yard or near the foundation
- Basement or crawl space moisture
- Driveway washing out
- Erosion on slopes
- Standing water in low spots
