What do levelling services include?

Yard levelling involves creating a smooth surface on your piece of land. It almost means the same as grading services, which refers to the sloping of a yard away from the foundation of a home. Both are important when you want to have a beautifully maintained lawn, and avoid soil erosion and other drainage problems in your garden space! 

There are different methods to level or grade your yard depending on its natural grading, soil makeup, vegetation, and general needs. Here are the most common ways that you can expect from yard levelling and grading services near you:

Soil mixture installation

For this method, you may need to have your grass mowed first and detach your lawn as needed. When it’s ready, your Tasker can dig up the grass in the sunken area of the lawn. They can mix topsoil, sand, and compost and then use this soil mixture to fill the sunken areas and holes. Once done with filling out the holes and divots, your Tasker can cover your entire lawn with about 1/4 to 1/2 inches of the mix to even out the land. Keeping this layer thin is important because putting too much can choke your grass. Then, you can run your sprinklers and water your lawn to help the soil mixture settle in, filling air pockets and revitalising your property. Taskers can use a soil compactor and make sure the underlying remains compact and keep your new lawn flat. 

Taskers can also offer sod installation to stimulate regrowth and make your lawn or yard look pristine again. You can use regular grass seed or topsoil for the aftercare, but it's better to ask if laying sods can be done, as well.

Bobcat machinery

When your Tasker uses a versatile piece of machinery like Bobcat for a garden levelling project, it allows them to scoop and move dirt easily. If you book yard grading near you, you may be required to put up barriers around the perimeter of your operation. When your space is ready, your Tasker can start using the Bobcat to shave off parts of your unlevel yard, starting at an area that is as level as possible. As your Tasker levels your yard, they can create benchmarks and check out its grading. If needed, they can adjust low spots with low soil, while the excess soil will be sent to the spoils pile. The Bobcat can still be used to tamp down the ground. Once done, your Tasker can call a dump truck to have the excess dirt removed. 

Excavation

Booking yard grading services near you may not just involve filling holes into level the land, especially if you’re planning to build a structure on it. Your Tasker can first clear out vegetation and tree roots. Then, they can start digging holes to create low-lying areas using a bulldozer or backhoe to be involved. The dirt removed while your Tasker is digging can be used to back-fill around the new structure. Afterwards, the richer topsoil that was also removed can be used to overlay the fill dirt, so that grass and shrubbery can grow well on your newly-graded yard. Take advantage of this method to remove unwanted or contaminated soil if needed.

Prepare and Level this area to grow grass

$200

Fawkner VIC 3060, Australia

6th Sep 2025

I want this area cleaned, leveled and prepared to eventually lay turf or possibly even sprinkle seeds for grass to grow. The bricks in the centre can be removed and soil filled into it. Can be done with either small 1-1.5tonne excavator or by hand, I don't care which. I just want it done. Ps. Please, if it's someone who's going to do it with hand I don't want to hear throughout the job "oh, I'm very tired, it's a big job, only for you I do this price" etcetc Also ps. I CAN have this job done in less than $400 by easily renting a small excavator for $300 but don't have the time. With excavator it shouldn't take more than 2-3hrs.

Minor leveling for event marquee set up

$1,500

Sunbury VIC, Australia

20th Jul 2025

I’m reaching out regarding a wedding we’re planning at a private estate in Sunbury, VIC. We are setting up a 10m x 30m marquee on an open piece of land adjacent to the main property, and we require site levelling and preparation prior to installation. The ground is mostly flat, but there are some uneven patches and bumps that will need to be levelled, compacted, and prepped for either turf or a temporary timber flooring system. The access is suitable for machinery, and we’d like to ensure the surface is safe, smooth, and well-drained for guest use. Would you be available to inspect the site and provide a quote for Minor levelling and grading. The wedding is scheduled for 6th December 2025, and we’re looking to have this work completed in advance to allow for marquee setup and styling. Please let me know your availability and pricing, and feel free to contact me if you require more details or an inspection.
