A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them.
At JMC Landservices, we take pride in laying the perfect foundation for your landscape or outdoor areas. We serve a bunch of places across Florida – Pine Island, Bookelia, Matlacha, St. James City, Cape Coral, and Fort Myers. When it comes to grading landscapes, we really know our stuff.
Preparing a site properly is key to a gorgeous outdoor space. First, we clear away any vegetation, debris, or stuff in the way. Grading the land is critical and requires us to fully understand the lay of the land and construction techniques.
When it comes to developing any piece of property – whether it’s your brand new residential plot or a commercial site like a parking lot or retail space – proper grading of the land itself is very important for stability.
In a nutshell, site grading means strategically moving dirt and land around to shape the literal lay of the land across the property. The goal is to achieve just the right elevations and slopes so that water effectively runs off areas where we want it to and don’t create any new puddles.
Proper site grading sets up a solid foundation across the entire property to then build upon. It directs water where we want it to go, prevents flooding and runoff issues, and allows us to establish very intentional “pads” of land upon which to build structures.
We need intentional grading on both residential builds (like homes, pools, landscaping areas) as well as commercial projects (think parking lots, sports fields, parks, office spaces). The terrain needs to be properly leveled out and sloped before laying down construction materials like concrete for driveways or foundations.
So in essence, site grading evens out and shapes the property’s basic terrain to allow for proper drainage and create a super solid base for years of use. It’s a must-do first step before breaking ground on stuff like homes, buildings, landscaping, parking lots – you name it! The goal is setting up that flawless functional blank canvas.
We start by studying the site in depth. We work with Sunshine.com to mark underground utility lines – safety first!
We spread and compact road rock using specialized machines, then professionally level the setting bed through precise screeding.
If the site grading is not done properly this can lead to water pooling and even foundation or landscape damage. By strictly following plans, our residential and commercial grading delivers not just systematic, safe work, but enhances your outdoor space. Whether you’re building something new or upgrading, JMC Landservices is your go-to for a sturdy, lasting base.
The bottom line – a solid foundation is critical for outdoor structures. Our work isn’t just about curb appeal – it’s about ensuring stability and value over time. Our extensive experience across Florida sets us apart when handling all types of projects.
