Grading on Kauaʻi is rarely flat-dirt work. We deal with red volcanic clay that holds water, North Shore slopes that channel storm flow, and South Shore parcels with shallow rock. Every grading job we run starts with reading the site for water and finishes with a pad that drains correctly long after the dozer leaves. We handle rough grading, finish grading, building-pad prep, swale cutting, driveway crowns, and pre-pour leveling for foundations and slabs.

What's included

Rough and finish grading to engineered spec
Building pad prep with compaction testing coordination
Drainage swales, berms, and positive-flow correction
Driveway grading with proper crown and shoulder
Slope stabilization on East Side and North Shore parcels
