The process of grading or regrading a yard typically involves assessing the existing slope, removing any obstructions, and then shaping the soil with specialized equipment. The duration depends on the size and complexity of the project, but most residential resloping can be completed within a day or two. Heavy machinery such as skid steers, excavators, and grading blades are commonly used to achieve precise slopes and ensure proper drainage.

Proper equipment and expertise are crucial for effective yard grading. Professionals utilize laser-guided grading systems, compactors, and other tools to shape the terrain accurately. The goal is to create a gentle slope away from structures, preventing water accumulation and soil erosion while maintaining the landscape's aesthetic appeal.
