Harley Rake Regrade / Soil Preparation
If you want a new lawn and have good quality soil already, that needs to be regraded, we can help with soil preparation. For soil preparation, we harley-rake the entire lawn and regrade to the correct grade. This process pulverizes your existing lawn and fluffs soil perfectly to the correct grade. You can then install regular grass seed or have us hydroseed for a new lawn. Check out our harley-rake below in action.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is lot grading?
Lot grading refers to the shaping and leveling of the land on a property to ensure proper drainage. It involves manipulating the slope and elevation to direct surface water away from buildings and towards appropriate drainage systems.
How does the grading process go?
The grading process starts with an initial consultation, site assessment, and pricing. Once everything checks out, we start the process of regrading the lawn with new soil or use the existing soil if possible. We always top coat the final grade with high quality nutrient dense soil to ensure a healthy lawn grow.
How do you ensure the correct grade?
We use precise technology that measures the grade, ensuring correct slopes to run that water away from your house.
How long does the process take?
Smaller sites can be done in one day, while larger ones may take two days.
What are common signs of improper lot grading?
Signs of improper lot grading include water pooling around the foundation, basement flooding, soil erosion, and uneven settling of structures. If you notice these issues, it’s important to address them promptly to prevent further damage.
