GPS Site Grading

GPS grade guidance uses satellite positioning to track the bucket in real time. The operator sees the design surface on-screen and the system shows exactly how much cut or fill is needed at any point. No survey stakes to work around, no guessing between grade checks — the operator reads design grade in the cab, in real time.

This means tighter tolerances on the first pass. Building pads come out flat. Drainage slopes hold their grade across the full length. Foundation excavations hit depth without over-digging. The result is less material moved, less rework, and a finished surface that matches the engineered plan.

We handle the full grading scope: rough grade, fine grade, compaction, and drainage shaping. We grade to the elevation the engineer of record specifies, and we can work directly from digital site plans and grading designs.

GPS grading is especially valuable on sloped lots where cut-and-fill balance directly affects retaining wall costs and drainage performance. Getting the grade right the first time saves money on every trade that follows.
