Tell us about your property

Noosh Stump Removal provides landscape grading services in Salem, OR, Keizer and nearby Mid-Willamette Valley communities. We examine existing slopes and low areas before determining where soil needs adjustment. Our team plans the grade around your property’s drainage needs and intended use.

What Are the Benefits of Landscape Grading?

Landscape grading changes the height and slope of your ground to address drainage and surface problems. The right adjustments can improve how your yard handles rainfall and support future landscaping.

Reduce standing water: Low spots can hold rainwater long after a storm has passed. Drainage grading helps move surface runoff toward a suitable outlet instead of allowing it to collect in your lawn.
Protect nearby structures: Ground that slopes toward your house can direct runoff toward the foundation. Regrading can redirect surface water away from vulnerable areas when your property has a suitable drainage route.
Improve yard access: Uneven ground can make mowing difficult and leave awkward dips across your lawn. Yard leveling can smooth these areas while maintaining the slope needed for drainage.
Limit soil erosion: Rainwater moving quickly down exposed slopes can carry loose soil into lower areas. Adjusting the grade can help manage runoff, although steep slopes may need additional erosion control.
Prepare new landscaping: New lawns and garden beds need suitable ground conditions before installation. Grading establishes the surface elevations so future planting areas fit the surrounding landscape.

What Types of Landscape Grading Services Are Available?

Different grading projects require different changes to your property’s surface. The existing slope, soil conditions and intended use determine how much earth needs to move.

Yard Leveling and Surface Grading: We assess the existing surface before adjusting elevations, while preserving a suitable slope for water movement. For areas that need new grass after grading, our lawn installation services can help prepare the space for seed or sod.
Drainage Grading and Slope Correction: We examine where runoff enters your property, where it collects and which drainage routes are available. Some properties may also benefit from French drain installation when water continues to collect in saturated soil.
Landscape Regrading: Landscape regrading changes an existing slope that no longer suits your property’s use or drainage needs. This may involve moving soil from raised sections into lower areas or changing the direction of surface runoff.
Site Preparation for Landscaping: Grading can prepare your property for lawn replacement, planting beds or a larger landscape project. Our landscape renovation services can address additional changes when your project extends beyond surface grading.

I had Noosh remove 3 mature Rhododendron’s and rose bush. Gary quickly came out to assess the job and booked it for the next day.
The two team crew was timely, very friendly, efficient, and left the area looking great.
I would definitely recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It's always nice to get what you pay for, but it's amazing to find a company that goes above and beyond. I would give 10 stars if I could. Gary and his crew did an incredible job clearing underbrush and scrub trees to make a pasture area, and even seeding when the ground was prepped. His price was fair, and the job was completed in a timely manner.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AMAZING!! we had a couple of trees removed that were dangerously close to structures and cannot recommend Noosh enough. They were so incredibly careful lowering limbs to the ground piecemeal so that no fences, plants, or structures would be damaged during removal of a 30yr old cedar tree. Victor & Javier are aces!

FAQs About Landscape Grading

Landscape grading projects vary according to your property’s slope, soil conditions and drainage problems. These answers cover common questions homeowners ask before planning the service.

Can landscape grading fix standing water in my yard?

Landscape grading can reduce standing water when poor surface slope causes rainwater to collect. If your property has limited drainage outlets or saturated soil, additional drainage measures may be needed.

How much does landscape grading cost?

Landscape grading costs depend on the area being worked, the amount of soil movement and access for equipment. Projects that require imported soil, material removal or drainage installation can involve additional costs. An on-site assessment helps establish the required scope.

What is the difference between landscape grading and yard leveling?

Landscape grading changes the slope and elevation of your ground to manage runoff or prepare an area for landscaping. Yard leveling focuses on making an uneven surface smoother, although a slight slope may still be necessary for drainage.

How long does landscape grading take?

The timeline depends on your property's size, slope and soil conditions. Smaller surface adjustments require less work than extensive regrading involving large amounts of soil. Wet ground and restricted equipment access can also affect scheduling.
