Precision Earthworks LLC did an amazing job clearing and regrading my backyard (about ½ acre). Matt and his crew were professional, hardworking, and communicated extremely well from scheduling through completion. They worked two full days—nearly 10 hours each day—and the results speak for themselves. I couldn’t be happier and highly recommend them. A picture is worth a thousand words—see below!

Expert Grading and Leveling in Sussex County, NJ
Precision Earthworks delivers grading and leveling services built for the varied terrain of Sussex County. Many properties here sit on sloped, rocky, or uneven ground. That mix creates drainage problems, soft spots, and unstable surfaces that cause real damage over time. Our crew reads each site before moving a single yard of soil. We cut high areas, fill low spots, and compact the subgrade so water moves away from your structure, not toward it. We handle rough grading for new builds, finish grading ahead of landscaping, and slope correction for existing yards that pool water after rain. Sussex County properties also face freeze-thaw cycles that shift soil each season. We account for that when setting final grades. Whether you are preparing a lot in Newton, correcting a slope in Sparta, or leveling a pad site in Vernon, we bring the right equipment and a clear plan.

Grading and Leveling FAQ
Common questions about grading and leveling in Sussex County, NJ.
Yes, we provide both rough grading and finish grading for new residential builds across Sussex County. Our crew works to elevation specs so your site is ready for foundation work or landscaping.
Grading can fix standing water by reshaping the slope so runoff moves away from low spots and your home's foundation. We assess the existing grade and adjust it to direct water toward a safe discharge point.
Rough grading sets the general elevation and slope of your site, usually before construction begins. Finish grading brings the surface to its final elevation, ready for seed, sod, or hardscape installation.
Yes, slope correction is a core part of our grading work in Sussex County. We recut the grade, compact the soil, and shape the surface so water tracks away from the driveway edge.
A survey is not always required for basic yard leveling, but larger grading projects tied to new construction in Sussex County typically benefit from one. We can review your site and advise you before work begins.
Properly compacted and graded soil handles freeze-thaw cycles better than loose or uneven ground. We set grades and compact subgrade with seasonal soil movement in mind for lasting results.
