Who Can You Call for Grading and Drainage Issues Around Your Home?

That depends on the complexity of the work and whether it is part of the formal review. Landscape designers, licensed landscape architects, and licensed civil engineers can do grading and drainage work. If the work has to be sealed and reviewed by a municipality, a licensed landscape architect or civil engineer will be required. Julieta Sherk, PLA, ASLA, NC State Professor
