What do levelling services include?
Yard levelling involves creating a smooth surface on your piece of land. It almost means the same as grading services, which refers to the sloping of a yard away from the foundation of a home. Both are important when you want to have a beautifully maintained lawn, and avoid soil erosion and other drainage problems in your garden space!Â
There are different methods to level or grade your yard depending on its natural grading, soil makeup, vegetation, and general needs. Here are the most common ways that you can expect from yard levelling and grading services near you:
Soil mixture installation
For this method, you may need to have your grass mowed first and detach your lawn as needed. When it’s ready, your Tasker can dig up the grass in the sunken area of the lawn. They can mix topsoil, sand, and compost and then use this soil mixture to fill the sunken areas and holes. Once done with filling out the holes and divots, your Tasker can cover your entire lawn with about 1/4 to 1/2 inches of the mix to even out the land. Keeping this layer thin is important because putting too much can choke your grass. Then, you can run your sprinklers and water your lawn to help the soil mixture settle in, filling air pockets and revitalising your property. Taskers can use a soil compactor and make sure the underlying remains compact and keep your new lawn flat.Â
Taskers can also offer sod installation to stimulate regrowth and make your lawn or yard look pristine again. You can use regular grass seed or topsoil for the aftercare, but it's better to ask if laying sods can be done, as well.
Bobcat machinery
When your Tasker uses a versatile piece of machinery like Bobcat for a garden levelling project, it allows them to scoop and move dirt easily. If you book yard grading near you, you may be required to put up barriers around the perimeter of your operation. When your space is ready, your Tasker can start using the Bobcat to shave off parts of your unlevel yard, starting at an area that is as level as possible. As your Tasker levels your yard, they can create benchmarks and check out its grading. If needed, they can adjust low spots with low soil, while the excess soil will be sent to the spoils pile. The Bobcat can still be used to tamp down the ground. Once done, your Tasker can call a dump truck to have the excess dirt removed.Â
Excavation
Booking yard grading services near you may not just involve filling holes into level the land, especially if you’re planning to build a structure on it. Your Tasker can first clear out vegetation and tree roots. Then, they can start digging holes to create low-lying areas using a bulldozer or backhoe to be involved. The dirt removed while your Tasker is digging can be used to back-fill around the new structure. Afterwards, the richer topsoil that was also removed can be used to overlay the fill dirt, so that grass and shrubbery can grow well on your newly-graded yard. Take advantage of this method to remove unwanted or contaminated soil if needed.

Level 5 qualified arborist for root investigation and project oversee
$300
Box Hill North VIC, Australia
20th Nov 2024
My front fence planning permit requires the following tasks done by an arborist: 1. A non-invasive root investigation is to be undertaken (supervised by an AQF Level 5 Arborist in accordance with Australian Standard 4970-2009 Protection of trees on development sites), to identify the size and number of roots in the location of, and to the depth of, the planned works. Once works are completed, an Arboricultural report must be submitted to Council providing the results of the investigation. The report must illustrate the location and size of all roots encountered, and form recommendations which demonstrate how the tree would remain viable. The recommendations must include statements on the footings/foundations and any changes which the author considers necessary to protect the Eucalyptus leucoxylon. 2. A suitably qualified Project Arborist (minimum AQF level 5) must be engaged to oversee the excavation for the fence posts within the TPZ of the street tree. The presence of roots in the post hole locations must be assessed and reported on by the Project Arborist to the satisfaction of the Responsible Authority before plans are endorsed to ensure no major roots are impacted. Any significant roots found are to be retained: i. No woody roots ≥30 mm diameter are to be severed. ii. Any tree roots <30mm are to be pruned with sharp sterile tools by the Project Arborist only.
