Proper landscape grading is necessary on Long Island given our climate and proximity to the ocean, and Wonderland Tree Care + Landscapes is experienced with grading and drainage projects for North Shore homeowners.

Landscape grading is the art of shaping the land around your home to correct or prevent drainage problems. You might also choose to grade your yard to create flat spaces for pools and water features or distinct levels with retaining walls for aesthetic purposes.

Many factors must be considered before determining the final grade of a property, though none more important than allowing for proper drainage. Steep slopes will direct water where you want it, but could result in excessive pooling in other places and make your landscape difficult to enjoy.

If one of these scenarios applies to you and you’re interested in a lightning protection system for a tree or trees on your property, Contact us to set up a consultation with one of our landscape technicians to explore the grading and drainage needs for your property.
