What is Resloping and How Does the Process Work?

Resloping is the vital process of reshaping the ground around your property to ensure proper water drainage and prevent water damage. Over time, natural settling, soil erosion, or poor initial grading can cause the land around a building to slope toward the foundation instead of away from it. This can lead to water pooling near the foundation, increasing the risk of leaks, basement flooding, or structural damage. Resloping corrects these issues by excavating and reshaping the soil to create a gradual slope directing water safely away from your home or commercial building.


The process starts with a thorough site assessment by Wheeler Excavating Inc.'s skilled team to identify problematic drainage areas and soil conditions. Next, heavy machinery is used to remove excess soil or add fill where needed. The soil is then compacted and graded carefully to achieve the ideal slope, typically 5% away from the foundation over the first 10 feet. Drainage solutions like swales or French drains may also be integrated if necessary. Finally, the area is stabilized and restored with sod or gravel to prevent erosion. This comprehensive approach protects your property’s foundation, landscape, and value for years to come.
