Proper yard sloping and grading are essential for effective water drainage and maintaining a healthy lawn. Resloping involves adjusting the slope of a yard to improve runoff and prevent pooling or erosion. This process often includes leveling uneven terrain and creating a gentle incline away from structures to protect foundations and landscaping.
