Construction Grading & Excavation in North County San Diego

Grading is a crucial step in building and land development that involves leveling and shaping the ground to prepare it for construction or landscaping projects. Custom grading and excavating from an experienced operator ensures that your site has the proper elevation and slope to facilitate drainage, prevent erosion, and create a stable foundation for structures. Our licensed grading contractor, Todd Freistat (License #1072197), has been grading for over 30 years in San Diego County. Call Todd today to learn more: (760) 809-5805.
