Uneven ground
Humps, holes, old ruts, settled trenches, and random grades make land hard to mow, risky to drive, and impossible to build on without correction. Regrading returns ground to a surface that drains correctly and works the way you use it.
What it looks like
- Mowing that beats up equipment and operator alike
- Low spots that hold water; high spots that scalp
- Old utility trenches or stump holes telegraphing through the surface
The work that fixes it
Before you reach out
- Mark the trouble spots you know — some only show from the seat of a mower
- Decide the finish: seeded rough pasture grade or finish-graded lawn
Common questions
Can you fix uneven ground without stripping it bare?
Spot-grading handles isolated problems. Ground that's failed broadly does better with one honest regrade and reseed than years of patching.
