How much does it cost to regrade a yard?

Do you bring in fill dirt or topsoil?

Yes. We deliver fill dirt or topsoil with our dump truck and grade it in during the same visit.

Will grading fix my standing water problem?

Most yard standing-water issues are grading or drainage problems. We assess and either regrade, install a French drain, or both.

Can you finish-grade for sod or seed?

Yes. We can grade to a rake-ready finish for sod, hydroseed, or traditional seeding.

Do you grade gravel driveways?

Yes — re-crowning, filling ruts, and reshaping for drainage are core skid-steer work for us.

Dirt Grading & Leveling Services — Central Indiana

Mann Hauling grades and levels yards, lots, driveways, and pads across Central Indiana with a skid steer — fast, accurate, and graded for drainage, not just appearance.

Grading isn't just pushing dirt around. Bad grading sends water at the foundation, kills grass, and washes out gravel. We grade with slope-to-drain on every job so the work actually solves the problem.

Typical scope: regrade a yard with low spots, level a backyard for new sod, finish-grade a building pad, smooth out a torn-up jobsite, or shape a gravel driveway after washouts.
