The ground around here

What the dirt does in this part of the county

Mehlville is established post-war suburb, and that is the defining fact for ground work here. The lots were laid out decades ago, the trees on them are mature, and the drainage was designed for a neighbourhood with a good deal less hard surface than it has now. Water that used to soak away now runs.

Mature trees are the second half of it. Root systems under a lawn change how water moves and what a machine can cut through, and a drive or patio lifted by roots is a grading job before it is a paving one. Access is usually straightforward here compared with the bluff lots further south, which keeps the work simpler.

What gets asked for

The jobs this area tends to need

Around Mehlville the calls are mostly residential: regrading a yard that holds water, downspout and French drain runs, driveway and patio subgrade, old concrete and sheds broken out and hauled away, and small retaining work where a garden steps down.

That describes the ground and the housing stock here, not a list of jobs completed in this town. The work we can show you is on the gallery, and what customers say about it is on the why us page.

Questions

Mehlville: common questions

Do you cover Mehlville?
Yes. Mehlville is in St. Louis County, the second of the two counties this company covers, about eighteen miles from our Hillsboro base.
My yard has held water since the trees got big. Is that fixable?
Usually, and it is a common one in this area. Mature roots, compacted lawn and decades of added hard surface upstream all change where water goes. The fix is normally regrading to a proper fall, with a swale or a rock run only where the fall alone cannot do it.
Can you break out an old driveway or patio?
Yes — broken out, loaded and hauled away, with the ground underneath graded rather than left as a scar. Thickness, reinforcement and access all change the job, which is why it gets looked at on site.
