Land Grading for Drainage

Water always finds a way—make sure it finds the right one.

Improper grading is one of the top causes of drainage issues in the Huntsville area. Whether your yard holds water near your foundation, or your driveway turns into a mini river during storms, we can reshape the land to redirect water where it belongs. Our grading services correct slopes, reshape terrain, and prevent future water damage before it starts.

We use precise equipment to create subtle grade changes that promote proper runoff and protect structures, driveways, and landscaping. It’s the quiet fix that keeps water in its place and off your property.

Drainage Ditch Installation & Repair

Out here, a good ditch still solves a lot of problems.

Sometimes, the old-school solutions are the best ones. Our team installs and reshapes drainage ditches that efficiently move water off your land and away from problem areas. Whether you need new ditches cut or existing ones regraded and cleaned out, we’ve got the tools and experience to do it fast and right.


A well-planned ditch prevents standing water, erosion, and storm-related flooding. We evaluate your layout, soil, and slope, then create the right drainage pattern to keep your yard or build site stable and dry.

Runoff & Erosion Control

Don’t let a little water cause big damage.

Heavy rains in North Alabama can quickly erode unprotected slopes, especially near driveways, buildings, or undeveloped lots. Our drainage solutions include strategic water redirection and erosion control methods like grading, berm building, and controlled runoff paths. We focus on managing water flow without disrupting the rest of your land.
