Fix Uneven Yards with Reliable Grading
Professional Lawn Grading Services
Our lawn grading service helps create a smooth, properly sloped yard that improves both the appearance and drainage of your landscape. Over time, lawns can develop uneven areas, low spots, and improper slopes that allow water to collect in certain sections of the yard. These issues can lead to standing water, lawn damage, soil erosion, and potential drainage problems near your home.
Our team carefully reshapes and levels the soil to improve the overall grade of your lawn while directing water away from structures, landscape beds, and other problem areas. Proper grading helps maintain a stable surface and supports healthier lawn growth.
When Lawn Grading Is Needed
Lawn grading may be recommended if your yard experiences:
- Low spots where water collects after rain
- Uneven lawn surfaces or bumps in the yard
- Drainage problems near the home or landscape beds
- Soil erosion or poor water runoff
- Areas where grass struggles to grow evenly
Correcting these issues can help improve both the functionality and appearance of your outdoor space.
Our Lawn Grading Process
Our team evaluates the current condition of the lawn and adjusts the soil to create a more even and properly sloped surface. The grading process may include:
- Removing uneven soil or excess buildup
2. Filling low areas to eliminate water pooling
3. Smoothing and leveling the lawn surface
4. Adjusting the slope to improve water drainage
5. Preparing the ground for new lawn or landscaping installations
Proper grading creates a stable foundation for your lawn and helps prevent future drainage problems

Probably will get the same response as I've seen to other 1 star reviews that I'm not in their system but they called me from the quote request I... read more submitted, made an appointment for 2 days later. Never showed up or called until like noon the following day. Asked if I wanted to schedule another one which I agreed to and she gave me a date of like 10-12 days later. I said that was too late and she asked if tomorrow would work. Again I said sure and she was going to call Gabriel and get back to me. Never a return phone call. Very unprofessional and if you were able to agree to a job, good luck getting them to show up and complete the work. Shame, trying to support local business!

Gabriel and Co. replaced 2 concrete sidewalks with pavers, installed retaining walls, and covered a concrete stoop with quarried stone. They were fantastic to deal with and the job looks... read more great. Owner Gabriel, Katia in the office, and the crew were all wonderful to deal with. We will be asking them to do a larger job next year. UPDATE 6/19/22 - Mendez Landscaping did a much larger job for us this spring. They built a multi-level paver patio with retaining walls and 9 steps, and also built a separate fire pit in the back of our yard. This was a difficult job (it seemed to us) because our yard slopes front to back and side to side. Gabriel showed us a design on his laptop which helped us to visualize everything. They began the job when promised, told us it would take 9-10 days but finished in 6 days! As with the previous job last fall, workmanship was amazing and it looks wonderful. Logistically, this job was a little difficult (again, it seemed to us) because it required multiple deliveries of materials over the 6 days, but these were done "just in time" so that the workers were never waiting on materials. Every day the job site was cleaned up. When their machines needed to travel on the lawn, they put down plywood to protect the grass. Where the grass was damaged (unavoidable as part of construction), they put down grass seed and matting. BOTTOM LINE - we love our new patio and fire pit, and are grateful that Mendez Landscaping was able to do this job for us. They are true professionals and wonderful craftsmen. Thank you Gabriel, Katia (office manager), and crew!
