Expert Property Grading in Metro Atlanta, GA
Property grading shapes and levels your land so water drains away from structures, not toward them. Ace/Kimble Services performs grading work on residential and commercial properties throughout Georgia, from the red clay hills of the north to the low-lying coastal plain in the south. Georgia's red clay soil expands when wet and shrinks when dry. That movement puts stress on foundations when grading is off. Georgia Residential Code Section R401.3 requires the ground to slope away from foundation walls at least 6 inches within the first 10 feet. Our crews assess each site's contours, soil type, and drainage path before moving a single load of earth. We shape the land to direct runoff away from your building, reduce pooling, and stabilize the surface for whatever comes next, whether that is new construction, a driveway, a lawn, or an addition. If your yard holds water after rain, shows erosion channels, or has soil settling near the foundation, contact Ace/Kimble Services for a site evaluation.

Property Grading FAQ
Common questions about property grading in Metro Atlanta, GA.
Standing water near your foundation, soil erosion channels in the yard, or soggy ground that stays wet days after rain are the clearest signs. A site evaluation by a grading contractor in Georgia will confirm whether the slope needs correction.
Yes, grading is designed specifically to manage how red clay behaves across Georgia. Because red clay drains slowly and shifts with moisture, the grade must direct water away from structures with a consistent, measured slope.
Yes, Ace/Kimble Services is certified to work across the entire state of Georgia. Whether your property is in the Atlanta metro, coastal Georgia, or anywhere in between, our crews can assess and grade your site.
Rough grading moves and shapes the bulk of the earth to establish the correct slope and drainage path. Finish grading smooths the surface to prepare it for sod, landscaping, a driveway, or a building pad.
Correcting the slope around your foundation is the most direct fix for water pooling against a home in Georgia. On steeper or larger lots, grading may be paired with swales or drainage channels to fully redirect runoff.
Yes, we grade both residential lots and commercial sites throughout Georgia. Each project starts with a site assessment to determine the right approach for the property's size, soil, and drainage needs.
