Land Grading for Longboat Key Builders & Property Owners

Lethermon Grade Excavations provides professional land grading in Longboat Key, Sarasota & Manatee Counties. We level uneven lots, fix low spots that hold water, and reshape raw or overgrown land into a smooth, properly sloped surface ready for sod, a build, a driveway, or pasture.

Longboat Key is a 12-mile barrier-island town of high-end custom homes and estates, and the excavation work here is premium residential — building pads, pool excavation, driveway and lot grading, and teardown demolition, often on waterfront lots with tight access. We've completed several Longboat Key projects.

Land Grading Process

How Land Grading Works in Longboat Key

1

Walk the Land

We walk the property, find the low spots and slope problems, and shoot elevations.

2

Grading Plan

You get a clear plan — how much cut and fill, where the dirt goes, and the final slope.

3

Cut, Fill & Level

We level the lot, fill low areas, and build positive slope away from every structure.

4

Finish & Clean

We spread topsoil, leave a smooth grade ready for sod or build, and clean up every rut.
