The ground around here

What the dirt does in this part of the county

Valley Park is a Meramec river town and its geography is organised around that fact. Much of the older city is on low, flat river-bottom ground, and the levee that protects part of it is the single most visible piece of ground work in the area. Flooding history here is well documented and the floodplain is mapped and regulated.

River-bottom ground drains slowly whatever the weather is doing, because it is flat and the water table under it is high. Away from the bottoms the land rises towards Manchester and the wooded hills west of the river, and that ground behaves like the rest of west county — real fall, and water arriving at the bottom of it faster than the flat can take.

What gets asked for

The jobs this area tends to need

Around Valley Park the work is grading for positive drainage, swales and rock runs, pads built high enough and drained well enough to stay dry, driveway and parking bases, and demolition with haul-away on the older river-side properties.

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

Valley Park: common questions

Do you cover Valley Park?
Yes. Valley Park is in St. Louis County, the second of the two counties this company covers, about twenty-eight miles from our Hillsboro base.
Do I need a permit for fill or grading here?
Quite possibly, particularly anywhere near the regulated floodplain, and it varies by exactly where you are. This site is not the place to guess on your behalf — ask at the walk-through and check with the City of Valley Park and St. Louis County before work is scheduled.
Can anything be done about ground that stays wet?
Sometimes fully, sometimes only partly. Water arriving too fast from uphill can usually be intercepted and routed away. Ground that is wet because it is low, flat and near the river is a different problem and regrading does not solve it. You will be told which one you have.
