Fast Turnaround

If your property has low spots that hold water, uneven terrain, or ground that needs to be dug out for a new build, you already know the problem will not fix itself. Poor grading leads to standing water, foundation damage, and bigger headaches down the road. Mako Contractors provides excavation and grading services in Freeport, FL that get your land flat, drained, and ready for what comes next. We bring the right equipment and local know-how to handle your project quickly and correctly.

When You Need Excavations and Grading

You might need excavation and grading if you're building a new home, adding a garage, or putting in a pool. Maybe your yard floods after every rain, or you notice water pooling near your foundation. These are signs the land around your property is not sloped the right way.

Waiting makes things worse. Water that sits near a foundation can cause cracks, mold, and settling over time. Sandy Florida soil shifts easily, and a small drainage problem today can turn into a major repair bill tomorrow. If you're planning any kind of outdoor construction in Freeport or along 30A, proper grading should be your first step.

Our Excavation and Grading Process

We start with a site visit to look at your land, check the slope, and talk through your goals. Then we bring in the right equipment — skid steers, excavators, or motor graders — based on the size of the job.

Our crew digs, moves, and compacts soil until the grade is exactly where it needs to be. We make sure water flows away from buildings and toward proper drainage areas. For new construction, we cut and fill to create a stable building pad. Most residential grading jobs in Freeport take one to three days. You will know the timeline before we start, and we keep you updated along the way.

Excavation and Grading Cost in Freeport

The price of grading and excavation depends on a few things: the size of your lot, how much dirt needs to be moved, soil conditions, and whether we need to haul material in or out. A small driveway re-grade is a different job than prepping a full home site.

We give you an upfront quote after looking at your property — no surprises and no hidden fees. Every estimate includes labor, equipment, and cleanup so you know exactly what you're paying for.
