When I assess a property, one of the first things I look at is how water moves across the land. Drainage issues often build up slowly and quietly—until one day there’s standing water, soil erosion, or even damage to a structure. My goal is always the same: guide the water away from where it can cause problems, using solutions like French drains, redirection grading, and downspout extensions tailored to the land.
Grading goes hand-in-hand with drainage. A site that’s level in the wrong places can hold water instead of moving it. I shape the terrain intentionally, using careful cuts and fills to ensure water flows naturally and safely. Whether it’s a small slope correction or a larger regrading job, I believe a well-drained property is a stable one.
A strong retaining wall starts below the surface. I focus on the footing—the part most people never see—because that’s what gives the wall its strength. Without a solid, level, and compacted base, walls can shift or fail over time. I take my time with the prep, making sure everything is stable before the first block goes down.
When working on hillsides or steep properties, slope stabilization becomes just as important. I shape embankments with care, using grading and drainage to hold the soil in place and prevent washouts. It’s not just about stopping erosion—it’s about building something that looks clean and stays in place for years.
