At Wintergreen Site Management, we provide expert residential grading services in West Bend, WI, Washington County, and the surrounding areas to ensure your yard, foundation, and future landscaping projects are built on solid ground.

Yard & Lawn Grading

A smooth, properly sloped lawn doesn't just look better — it functions better, too. Our yard and lawn grading services focus on:

Re-sloping for Proper Drainage: We redirect water flow away from your home and landscaping to prevent pooling, erosion, and property damage.

Eliminating Low Spots & Standing Water: We fill and regrade depressions that can lead to soggy lawns, mosquito breeding, and plant root damage.

Smoothing Uneven Terrain: We even out rough patches, holes, and bumps, creating a clean slate for healthy grass growth.

Soil Preparation for Sod or Seeding: We ensure the soil is properly graded, loosened, and conditioned for successful new lawn installations.

If your yard is lumpy, soggy, or showing signs of poor drainage, it's time to talk to the grading experts at Wintergreen Site Management.

Foundation & Driveway Grading

Improper grading near foundations and driveways can cause major headaches, including water damage, cracks, and costly repairs. Our services include:

Preventing Water Damage Near Foundations: We establish a positive slope away from your home's foundation to keep basements dry and protect your structural integrity.

Grading for New Driveways & Walkways: Before any concrete, asphalt, or pavers are installed, proper grading ensures a stable, long-lasting surface.

Regrading After Foundation Repairs: After foundation work, we carefully regrade and compact soil to maintain proper drainage.

Stabilizing Gravel or Dirt Surfaces: For gravel driveways or temporary pathways, we grade and stabilize surfaces to minimize washouts and ruts.
