Expert Land Grading in The Quad Cities, IA
Western Landscapes delivers land grading services built for the specific conditions found across the Quad Cities, including Davenport, Bettendorf, Moline, and Rock Island. Our work covers rough grading, finish grading, slope correction, and drainage grading for yards, building sites, and driveways. Many Quad Cities properties sit on compacted, low-organic Iowa and Illinois soils that shed water instead of absorbing it. Poor slope or low spots push water toward foundations, creating wet basements and soft, eroded ground. We assess your lot from property line to property line, identify problem grades, and reshape the land so water moves away from your home and toward proper outlets. Soil is cut from high spots and moved to fill low areas, reducing the need to haul material off-site. The finished surface is smooth, stable, and ready for seeding, sod, hardscaping, or construction. If your yard holds standing water after rain or your soil washes toward the house, call Western Landscapes for a site assessment.
