Professional grading that prevents water problems and costly fixes down the road.
When your property is graded correctly, water flows where it should – away from your foundation, not into your basement. Your driveway stays intact through spring thaws and heavy rains. Your building pad is level and stable, so construction goes smoothly.
You avoid the headaches that come with poor drainage. No more standing water after storms. No more erosion washing away your landscaping. No more failed inspections that delay your project and cost you money.
The right grading work upfront saves you from expensive problems later. It’s the difference between a property that works with the natural water flow and one that fights it – and loses.
We’ve been handling grading projects in Thurman and the surrounding Adirondack region for years. We understand how water moves through this terrain, especially during spring runoff and heavy rain seasons.
Every property here has its own drainage challenges. Rocky soil, clay pockets, seasonal water tables – we’ve seen it all. That local knowledge matters when you’re trying to get grading right the first time.
We work with homeowners, builders, and developers who need their sites prepared correctly. No shortcuts, no guesswork – just solid grading work that handles whatever weather throws at it.
First, we walk your property to understand the natural water flow and identify any problem areas. We look at where water comes from during storms and where it needs to go. This tells us exactly what grading work needs to happen.
Next, we bring in the right equipment for your specific job. Whether it’s fine-tuning drainage around a foundation or reshaping an entire building lot, we use machinery that can handle the precision work without overdoing it.
Then we grade according to proper slopes and drainage patterns. We’re not just moving dirt around – we’re creating a system that directs water away from structures and prevents erosion. After we’re done, your property works with the natural water flow instead of fighting it.

Our grading services cover everything from initial site preparation for new construction to fixing existing drainage problems. We handle foundation grading that prevents water issues, driveway grading that eliminates washouts, and lot preparation that meets building code requirements.
For new home construction, we create proper building pads and establish drainage patterns before any concrete gets poured. For existing properties, we can fix problem areas where water pools or erosion occurs. We also handle commercial site preparation where precise grading is critical for parking lots and building access.
Every project includes proper slope calculations to ensure water moves away from structures at the right grade. We also address any unique challenges your property presents, whether that’s dealing with ledge, managing seasonal runoff, or working around existing landscaping you want to preserve.
