When your site is properly graded from the start, everything else falls into place. Your foundation contractor can start immediately instead of dealing with drainage issues or uneven surfaces. Water flows where it should, away from your building areas and toward proper drainage points.
You avoid the costly delays that come with poor site preparation. No callbacks to fix grading problems that should have been handled correctly the first time. No surprise costs from having to redo work that wasn’t done to specifications.
