Yard Drainage & Grading in Central Minnesota

Water going where it shouldn't? We re-grade so it goes where it should.

Water always wins — unless the grade wins first. Standing water in the yard, a soggy spot that never dries, water creeping toward the foundation, a driveway that sheets ice every winter: all grading problems, and all fixable with the right equipment and an eye for how water actually moves across your property.

We re-grade yards, cut swales, correct slopes away from foundations, fix washouts, and prep proper drainage for patios, driveways, and new construction across Central Minnesota. It's some of the highest-value work we do — a day of grading can protect a foundation worth hundreds of thousands.

A shallow, graded channel that moves water across or around your property the way a gutter moves it off your roof. Done right, it's nearly invisible and completely changes how your yard handles rain.

Yes — regrading and recrowning a gravel driveway with our skid loader is quick, affordable work that we do all over Central Minnesota.
