Excavation, Grading and Drainage Systems

Proper excavation, grading and drainage systems work hand in hand to manage water flow from roofs, gutters, downspouts, parking lots, roads and surface water.

Light Excavation

The landscape construction division at Provost Companies can assist with light excavation projects such as backhoe, skid steer and dozer work for the clearing of overgrown areas, flattening or reshaping of your property in preparation of landscaping and or construction projects.

Grading & Regrading Properties

The grade on your property refers to the rise and fall of soil levels on and around your property. Having a properly graded property helps to direct the flow of water away from your home or business. The success of landscape and construction projects starts with correct grading by experienced landscape contractors and equipment operators. The proper grading or regrading or your property is a crucial step in keeping your property dry and free from standing water.

Drainage Systems

If your property suffers from wet basements, spongey soil areas, puddling, excessive mosquitos, or areas where grass and plants keep dying off, you may have a drainage problem. There are several types of drainage systems a professional landscape construction team can implement to alleviate these issues such as French drains, surface drains, trench trains, catch basins and more.

The Importance of Proper Excavation, Grading and Drainage Systems

Simply stated, the success of a landscape or construction project is based on the correct grading, experienced excavation work, and properly installed drainage systems from the very beginning. Being high and dry is exactly what you need to keep water away from where it’s not needed or wanted.
