Grading is a process of reshaping the land around your home to ensure water flows away from the foundation and towards an appropriate drainage area. Proper grading is essential for protecting your home or building from water damage caused by flooding, soil erosion, and other water-related issues.
A level slope with a gentle slope away from the house will allow water to flow naturally and avoid pooling around the foundation. The soil should also be graded to allow water to filter down into the ground instead of running off the surface.
In addition to protecting your home, proper grading can also improve the overall aesthetics and functionality of your yard. By creating a gentle slope towards a designated drainage area, you can prevent soil erosion, improve the health of your plants, and reduce the risk of water damage to your property. So, if you want to ensure that water drains well from your yard and protect your home from water damage, consider grading your yard.Â
