As a grading contractor we excel in landscape grading and site grading. We work diligently to help you make better use of your lot, doing landscaping prep that will give you the level spaces you need to better utilize your property. We can help you make better use of your site, and we also specialize in grading for retaining walls. Using our compact excavator allows us to do work in smaller, tighter places which is perfect when working close to homes or in those areas usually requiring hand shovel work. Our use of a full sized four axle dump truck with a demo box that can hold 17 tons means we can move bigger quantities faster than landscapers, saving you time and money. Our skills and equipment allow us to consistently exceed our customers’ expectations.

What is Landscape Grading?
Landscape grading is reshaping the land; typically this is done by scraping the earth with our compact excavator moving around the dirt to produce a level area. Earth First Excavation Grading is usually a combination of cutting and filling. Grading can include removal of unwanted materials, soil and rock.

We are a full service demo contractor, concrete and blacktop removal as well as whole buildings. We have the proper equipment to quickly demolish and dispose of all debris in addition to completing the site grading timely.
Landscape grading is usually done with heavy machinery such as bulldozers and excavators. The area is first cleared of unwanted materials which is disposed of, then finished to a smooth, level area that can be more effectively utilized in many ways. The usual grading of property in the Snohomish area requires creating retaining walls. We specialize in grading for retaining walls including terraced retaining walls.
Grading is done for placement of small buildings, foundations, footings, sidewalks, and slope terracing that directs surface runoff drainage. Site grading is also used for site stabilizing and aesthetic contouring. Grade, slope and pitch are all important factors when grading land for aesthetic and practical use. Landscape grading is becoming more critical due to stormwater runoff and is now being monitored closely by government agencies. Consequences for poorly graded land can be severe, including fines and damage to your property.
