About Grading
Accurate Grading for Stable Outdoor Landscapes
Every successful landscape project starts with grading. At M&G Landscaping, it is the first thing we look at to control water run-off and provide level areas for usage and functionality. Our grading work is meant to last.
Grading does not mean to even out the soil, but rather to make land. When your home is graded properly, it offers protection to the home foundation, prevents soil erosion, removes standing water, and ensures that the lawns, garden beds, patios, and walkways work as they should.
Having a keen eye on accuracy and long-term performance, we design landscapes that appear clean, work well, and stand up to the constantly changing weather conditions.

What We Do
The Process of Professional Grading
Grading at M&G Landscaping is carefully planned, and professionally done using state of the art equipment.
Site Evaluation & Planning
We start with the current pitch, soil type, and flow of water. With that in mind and the ultimate goal we determine what the best course of action is.
Land Assessment
Earthmoving and Shape of the Surface
Soil is moved to eliminate or create pitch as needed. Additional soil, rock, or other material is added to help in the process.
Precision Leveling
Drainage Alignment
Grading is also done in connection to the drainage systems that are there or that are intended to be there, so that there is no water pooling and erosion.
Water Flow Control
Final Preparation and Compaction
The surface is flattened and cleared to form a stable base on which sod, seed, planting or hardscape can be laid.
Surface Readiness
Balanced. Functional. Long-Lasting.
Grading is the Foundation of all Outdoor Projects
Large or small, all outdoor projects from patios to lawn installation start with proper grading work. It is what your base is built on top of. Efficient grading enhances the efficiency of drainage, minimizes service problems, and eliminates inconvenient long-term damage by erosion or intrusion of water. Our group will clarify every step so that you can know how your land is being formed and why it is important.

I just had a great experience employing MG landscaping. I called them on Friday. They called me back on Saturday. They booked me for Labor Day on Monday! I had three trees removed at a great price and later they cleared up the lawn. Cut all the wood to fireplace length 18 inches then moved all the fire wood to where I wanted it to be and save me tons of work! Every employee was nice and friendly and they had new equipment very professional. I would hire them again in a New York minute!Posted on Dave DworakTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A very professional and courteous company.

M&G installed new plantings in my front yard that was overgrown and crowded. Simple design and thoughtful suggestions of new plants. One plant didn’t fare well and was replaced without any delay. From the grounds crew to office staff, project was seamless from start to finish and everyone was helpful and polite.
