Improper grading is one of the most common causes of water intrusion — but it's also one of the most overlooked. Whether it’s rainwater collecting in your yard or runoff creeping into your crawl space, the slope of your land plays a major role in protecting your home. We offer smart grading and drainage solutions that prevent water damage before it starts.
Most properties are built without proper grading, and that can lead to major water issues. We assess the natural water flow of your lot, re-slope where needed, and design a custom grading plan that moves water away from your foundation — not toward it.
From swales to extended downspouts and underground drains, our team installs practical systems tailored to your home. No gimmicks. Just smart, effective solutions that keep your crawl space dry and your foundation stable.
If your yard holds water after rain or your crawl space smells damp, the slope around your home might be working against you. At Walsh Crawlspace and Structural Repair, we identify grading flaws and drainage gaps that lead to water damage — then fix them with custom-engineered solutions.
We begin with a full assessment of your property’s terrain, foundation exposure, and water flow. Based on our findings, we:
Every fix is customized, based on your specific property and the way water moves around it.
Improper grading doesn’t just cause puddles — it damages your foundation, fuels mold growth, and drives up long-term repair costs. Grading and drainage are your first line of defense against all of that. Don’t let poor slope design become a thousand-dollar problem.
Our team has helped hundreds of homeowners across the Carolinas solve water problems without tearing up their property. If you’ve noticed soft soil, standing water, or moisture in your crawl space, it’s time to act.
