A yard that holds water is a yard you cannot use — and it is the leading cause of wet crawl spaces and foundation problems in this part of Tennessee. BLC Construction & Home Repair regrades lots, fills low spots, cuts swales and gets water moving away from your home.
We serve Fairview, Dickson, Waverly, Charlotte and Bon Aqua, TN and the surrounding communities.
What's included
Grading & leveling
Low spots filled, ruts cut out and positive slope established away from the foundation.
Drainage
Swales, French drains, downspout extensions and culvert work.
Driveways
Gravel drives, culverts, potholes and washout repair.
Land clearing
Brush, small trees and debris removed to open up usable land.
Pads & bases
Building pads for sheds, shops, slabs and patios.
Topsoil & seeding
Topsoil placement, straw and seed so the yard comes back green.
Water is the most expensive thing in your yard
Ground should fall roughly six inches over the first ten feet away from your foundation. Most older homes in the area have lost that grade over decades of settling and landscaping. Restoring it is far cheaper than repairing a crawl space, a rotted band board or a shifting footing later.
We look at the whole water path — roof, gutters, driveway, neighboring lots — instead of just filling the puddle you can see.
