What do leveling services include?
Yard leveling 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 start on garden improvement projects. 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 leveling 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.
Bobcat machinery
When your Tasker uses a versatile piece of machinery like Bobcat, 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.Â
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. You can request a site visit to help the professional assess any potential obstacles. 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.

Labourer needed to level garden area with hardcore
£200
Bletchingley, Surrey
5th Mar 2025
I need a labourer to prepare a 4m x 5m garden area by leveling it with MOT Type 1 hardcore. Currently half of the area is the correct height and the other half is uneven in parts but correct in others, I need the whole space to be the same height. The work involves: Spreading and compacting hardcore only in the lower half (approx 2m x 5m) to bring it level with the higher section. Ensuring the entire area is flat and compacted, ready for the next stage (sand and slab laying). Bringing your own compactor plate (wacker plate) or advising me if I need to hire one, and levelling tools. Working carefully to avoid adding hardcore where the height is already correct. No need to lay sand or slabs - just getting the base ready. Would like the work done before March 14th. If you would like to come and have a look to confirm the job required that’s fine.

Basically I’ve levelled two tiers with a digger but it was so wet some of it is in clumps. I need someone to turn over the soil and move it by hand / wheelbarrow to get it broadly level. Then I need a heavy duty rotovator to chop it all up and probably a compactor to level it out.
