What Is Site Preparation—and Why It Matters
Site preparation is the process of transforming raw land into a safe, stable, and build-ready pad. It includes clearing vegetation, removing roots and debris, shaping the land, compacting soil, setting correct slopes, and installing basic erosion and drainage controls. Done right, it prevents settlement, puddling, and erosion, and helps you pass inspections without costly delays.
