Grading & Site Prep
Grading Contractor
Level, shape, and compact ground for buildings, shops, barns, and pads with the slope and drainage dialed in right.
What this looks like on your land
A good build starts with good ground. We cut, fill, level, and compact your site so it sheds water, holds weight, and meets grade, whether you are setting a home, shop, barn, garage, or pole building. When you need a grading contractor in Rome or anywhere in Northwest Georgia who gets the pad right the first time, this is the work we built the company on.
What's included
- Building and pad site preparation
- Cut and fill to establish proper grade
- Final grading and soil compaction
- Slope shaping for positive drainage away from structures
- Rough grading for yards, lots, and future landscaping
Every job starts with a free, honest on-site estimate. Call (706) 936-4615 and tell us about your property.

For a permitted structure your builder or county may require one. For driveways, pads, and yard work we can usually work from your stakes or property markers. We will tell you up front what your project needs.
Yes. Re-grading to establish positive slope away from the house is one of the most common drainage fixes we do. See our drainage and water control service.
We grade in lifts and compact as we go so the pad will not settle unevenly after you build on it.
