Grading plans help you lay a solid foundation for a safe and functional landscape and structure.
At MB Home Designs, we know that grading plans are more than just technical red tape you have to navigate; they’re a vital part of designing a home or structure that works in harmony with the land around it. Whether you’re planning to build a new home or are making some other significant change to your property, our grading plans help ensure proper drainage, code compliance, and long-term site stability.

What is a grading plan?
A grading plan is a detailed drawing that shows how the land will be altered and shaped around your home or structure. It includes slopes, elevations, drainage paths, and property boundaries, and it’s essential for:
- Preventing water damage to foundations, basements, and landscaping.
- Directing stormwater runoff away from the building and towards the appropriate drainage areas.
- Meeting local codes and permitting requirements.
- Planning exterior features such as retaining walls, driveways, and patios.
Even the most beautiful, well-constructed home will suffer if the grading isn’t done correctly. Our team takes a proactive approach to ensure your site is not only buildable, but safe, efficient, and environmentally sound. No two lots are the same, which is why we tailor our grading plans to match your lot’s layout and natural conditions.
