Grading + drainage
Start with how water moves through the site.
Residential grading, drainage, excavation and landscape preparation coordinated for Toronto and GTA exterior projects.

The purpose
The most important landscape work is often hidden after completion. Greenova evaluates grade, runoff, access and the relationship between new surfaces so the visible design begins with a more considered foundation.
What a coherent scope creates
A better result begins with better relationships.
- 01
A clearer understanding of existing grade and runoff conditions
- 02
New surfaces and beds planned around intentional water movement
- 03
Site preparation coordinated with the landscape built above it
Documentary sequence
Foundation-edge conditions and backfill stages, shown as photographed.
The sequence documents standing water and the subsequent soil/backfill stages only. It does not claim completed waterproofing, a permanent drainage cure or finished landscaping.

Potential scope
The work may bring together:
- 01Site review and problem-area identification
- 02Grading and surface-drainage adjustments
- 03Excavation, removal and base preparation
- 04Coordination with patios, walkways, walls and planting beds
- 05Restoration and finishing after foundational work
