"When I called Mike for an estimate, he came the next day, looked over the area and gave me a quote while he was here. He also said that if I would get wheat straw and grass seed, they would go ahead and spread those for me after they finished grading. He said it would be a couple of weeks before he could get to my yard due to other jobs he had going on, which was fine. During that time, he stayed in contact with me and got to it when he said he would. I had a bad car accident several days prior to his coming to work on my yard. When he got here, I explained that I wasn't able to get the seed and straw because of the accident and the injuries sustained and I would have to take care of that myself at a later time. He got his guys started and left. A little while later he came back with the wheat straw and grass seed on his truck. He picked them up for me because of the accident so that I wouldn't have to worry about handling that later. He proved to me that there is some human kindness left in the world. They tilled up the problem areas, smoothed out the dirt, and then spread the grass seed and wheat straw. He and his guys got the job finished just like I wanted it and they were all very professional. It feels wonderful to be able to walk in my yard again without fear of either me or my dogs blowing knees due to stepping in holes. I will be calling on him again when I need work done and I will be referring him. Mike Steger is a great man and makes sure that the job is done right!"

Spring is the sweet spot for yard leveling. The soil has enough moisture to shape easily but is still firm enough to stay put once you finish grading. Tackle the project before summer downpours arrive, and you’ll improve drainage, reduce erosion, and give new grass time to take root. Leveling in early spring also helps pros schedule follow-up landscaping before the busy season hits.
For an average-size yard, it takes five to six days to level a yard. That window covers site prep, precision grading, and the final touch-ups that lock the soil in place. A tiny patch might wrap up in a single day, while a sprawling or steep property can stretch the schedule to a full week. Building in a little extra time keeps the project on track if weather or equipment delays pop up.
Keep the soil at least 4 inches below the top of the foundation and 4 inches beneath the bottom edge of the siding. That simple gap sends water away from the house, blocks moisture intrusion, and closes off entry points for pests. Maintaining the clearance is an easy way to protect the foundation, encourage proper drainage, and dodge costly repairs down the road.
Grading tilts the ground so water flows away from your foundation, while leveling smooths out bumps so you can mow, entertain, or add hardscaping with ease. Most projects need a mix of both—grade first for drainage, then fine‑tune the surface for a neat, user‑friendly lawn. Combining the two protects the house and boosts curb appeal in one pass.
Leveling your yard enhances both functionality and beauty by creating a uniformly flat and accessible space. This process eliminates uneven surfaces that hinder maintenance and outdoor activity while improving drainage and reducing water pooling. A leveled yard also serves as a robust foundation for additional features such as patios and playsets, ultimately increasing the overall appeal and value of your property.
