Grading

Most people are unaware of the concept of grading. Most property owners don't address this subtle aspect of landscape design. Grading is like the hidden foundation of your house that serves an important role. It not only gives your landscape shape and structure, but it also assures that it is highly durable and healthy.

At C&C Lawn and Landscapes Management, LLC, we recommend that our clients grade their landscapes before planting their yards or gardens. We've seen numerous of our Virginia Beach, VA, clients employ grading as an efficient method for creating healthy and attractive outdoor spaces. By investing in site grading now, you can reduce future costs and ensure that your landscape lasts a long time.

What Exactly is Grading

As mentioned, not many people understand the concept of grading a site. Even if you're not aware of it, the procedure is constantly in place on your landscapes, and the method adds a mild slope to your land. We plan these slopes carefully to prevent erosion and promote adequate water drainage.

When you look at your landscapes and gardens, you might see that the ground has been delicately shaped to guide water flow. If done incorrectly, you might notice areas of standing water or significant erosion. Both things can harm your plants' health, causing various issues.

Why Should You Hire Grading Professionals?

Some do-it-yourselfers seek to grade their landscapes themselves. While some achieve satisfying outcomes, a few do more damage than good. It's a better idea to employ a professional who will inspect your property, thoroughly plan your lawn grading approach, and have the necessary equipment to carry it out. We have the expertise and experience required to handle landscape grading quickly and safely.

Our Landscape Grading Process

Here's a quick rundown of the grading procedure, which shows why it is preferable to engage a professional rather than trying to do the process on your own:

• The first step involves measuring and planning your landscape design. Grading is about more than simply efficient drainage; it's also about increasing the aesthetic of your environment. Measuring and planning enable our experts to create a plan.
• We will then remove the topsoil and store it in a separate area and will add it to the landscape later.
• Some projects may need excavation to contour the terrain or make room for installations such as swimming pools.
• We then use rough grading to correctly sculpt the terrain, which generally entails shifting a large volume of earth
• Once we complete the grading work, the site is ready for hardscape and softscape installations. The appropriate grading helps prevent water from pooling on your property, damaging the masonry elements, plantings, or even the structure that stands on your property.
