Need a lawn care recommendation....

And it's not a typical request.

Our backyard is rather slopey in some areas with lots of hills, whether something was buried there, or was just that way when the house was built, we don't know, but we've had numerous issues with water flowing into the basement because of the slopes.

So, DH would like to hire a company or someone to come in and completely flatten and level out our back yard.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks, I'll try a search with that term and see what I find.Chat Icon

ETA: I did a search and didn't find anything under lawn regrading or regrading, only under bobcat services.

My friend had this done, she was putting in a pool and her backyard wasn't level. I'll see if I can find out who she used.
I know it wasn't cheap...

Re: Need a lawn care recommendation....

any GOOD landscaping company should be able to regrade your back yard.

We had part of our backyard regraded when we had out patio put in but it was done by the masionary company.

I would check your local papers, or Craigslist, even your local nursery maybe able to give you a name or steer you in the right direction.
