How much does yard grading cost in Mooresville?

Simple regrading starts around $1,000–$2,500. Larger jobs with imported fill, French drains, and foundation drainage typically run $3,500–$8,000+.

Will regrading fix a wet basement?

In most cases, regrading the first 10 feet around the foundation to slope away from the house solves the majority of wet basement problems — especially when combined with extended downspouts.

How long does French drain installation take?

Most residential French drain projects take 1–2 days with our excavator and skid steer.

Do you provide the topsoil?

Yes. We deliver and place topsoil with our own dump truck and skid steer.

Do you reseed after grading?

We grade smooth and ready for seed. Final seeding or sod is typically handled by a landscaping contractor.

Yard Grading & Drainage in Mooresville, Indiana

Mann Hauling provides yard grading and drainage solutions in Mooresville, Indiana — regrading lawns, fixing standing water, installing French drains and swales, and correcting low spots that hold runoff against your foundation.

Mooresville's rolling terrain and clay subsoils create drainage problems that compound year after year. Water that sits against a foundation or in a crawl space turns into mold, settling, and thousands in repairs. Proper grading and surface drainage is the cheapest insurance you can buy for your home.

We use an excavator, skid steer, and dump truck to cut new grade, place fill, install drainage pipe and stone, and finish with topsoil ready for seed or sod.
