Site Prep & Grade Work

Grading and site prep required by code to pass inspection and get power to your home.

We offer grading services, which are required by code in order to pass inspection. This is absolutely required to be able to get power installed to your home.

Every state has different rules, but they all require positive drainage — water must run away from the home and not sit under it. You also want your site reasonably level, usually no more than a 2-foot slope from any end of the home to another.

We have a knowledgeable, experienced team, so you don't have to hire another contractor and hope they don't mess it up. Most sites require a french drain and possibly extra fill dirt — and fill dirt must always be compacted.

All homes require either dirt or concrete footers. Basic footers can be dug to frostline and set without concrete if allowed; concrete is sometimes required or requested but costs extra. Tennessee also requires that all tree limbs over the top of the home be removed.
