Improper drainage can be a property owner’s worst nightmare, leading to water flow issues that cause significant damage. Proper water control depends on effective grading and the implementation of a well-designed drainage plan. Libs Paving specializes in excavation and grading services that address drainage needs for asphalt projects and existing properties alike.

Drainage Plans & Site Preparation

Before construction begins, site preparation is crucial. This involves clearing the area of obstructions such as trees, shrubs, and large boulders—a process known as excavation. Once the site is clear, grading ensures the land is properly leveled and compacted, which is essential for managing water flow and preventing issues like pooling or soil erosion.
Effective grading combined with a tailored drainage plan helps protect your property by directing water away from vulnerable areas. At Libs Paving Company, we have the expertise to deliver these critical services, ensuring your project is built on a solid foundation for long-term success.

Proper Drainage

As a property is being graded, the experts at Libs Paving will also often create a drainage plan in preparation of runoff and soil erosion. Drainage can often be controlled with pipes, culverts, french drains, ditches, trench drains and also through retaining walls and fill dirt. If drainage issues are not properly addressed in the beginning stages of construction, it can lead to significant damage and costly repairs later. Often these issues do not appear until later and are difficult to repair.
