Cornerstone Grading provides professional grading services designed to prepare your land for safe, efficient, and lasting development. Serving both residential and commercial clients in Charlotte, High Point, Greensboro, Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Fayetteville, and surrounding areas, we use specialized equipment, including bulldozers, excavators, and motor graders, to reshape your terrain with accuracy and care. Our process involves cutting high points, filling low spots, and compacting soil to establish a smooth, even surface ideal for building foundations, parking lots, access roads, landscaping, and erosion control systems.
We also offer related services, such as minor excavation and demolition work, to clear the way before grading begins.

What is land grading, and why is it important?
Land grading is the process of leveling or sloping the ground to create a stable base for construction, prevent drainage issues, and improve usability. It’s a critical first step for residential and commercial building projects, driveways, landscaping, and erosion control.
How do I know if my property needs grading?
If your land has uneven terrain, poor drainage, standing water after rain, or you’re planning to build, install a driveway, or landscape, grading is likely necessary. We offer on-site evaluations across North Carolina to determine what your property needs.
Can you help with drainage or erosion issues during grading?
Yes. Our grading services include the creation of proper slopes and drainage paths to direct water away from structures and reduce erosion. We design grading plans that improve long-term water management for your land.
Do I need permits for grading in North Carolina?
Depending on the size and scope of your project and its location, a permit may be required. We can help guide you through the local permitting process or coordinate with your contractor to ensure compliance.
