Residential site solutions
Built to move water. Built to move earth.
Apex Site Works handles substantial residential drainage and grading projects that demand real machinery, experienced operators and a complete site plan, not a wheelbarrow-and-shovel fix.
Equipment-required residential projects only
Drainage SystemsRunoff, collection, routing and discharge planned as one system.
Machinery-Based GradingSkid steer, mini skid and excavation work for meaningful material movement.
Complete Exterior ScopeConcrete, gutters, irrigation, hardscape and restoration available.
01
Diagnose before digging.Good site work begins with understanding where water is coming from, where it is going and how the property should perform after the equipment leaves.
Complex property problems
Not landscaping. Site work.
When standing water, washout, poor elevation or unstable soil affects a large portion of the property, small cosmetic fixes usually fail. Apex addresses the actual grade, drainage path, soil movement and restoration scope.
Persistent water and runoff problemsStanding water, foundation concerns, swales, discharge routes and stormwater movement.
Incorrect grade or major elevation changeLow areas, steep transitions, lot fill, slope correction and machine-accessible grading.
Projects requiring real equipmentSkid steer, mini skid, excavator, meaningful material movement and professional site control.
Core residential capabilities
The equipment, planning and scope to solve it correctly.
Our residential division focuses on projects where drainage and grading affect the performance, usability and long-term value of the property.
Drainage Installation
Complete residential drainage systems designed around actual runoff, grade, collection points, routing and safe discharge.

Complete Exterior Scope
Coordinate concrete, gutters, irrigation, landscape restoration, hardscapes and walkways after the site problem is resolved.
Project qualificationA
Built for meaningful scale.The right project typically involves machinery access, multiple drainage zones, significant fill, elevation correction or a large area that needs professional site preparation.
Protecting your time and ours
Check My Project Fit
Know immediately whether Apex is the right fit.
This landing page is intentionally designed to attract substantial residential site-work projects and filter out small landscaping or handyman requests.
A strong fit
- The work requires a skid steer, mini skid or excavator.
- Water affects multiple areas or repeatedly damages the property.
- Substantial fill, dirt movement or elevation correction is needed.
- You want one contractor to manage restoration and related exterior work.
Probably not a fit
- A few wheelbarrows of soil or a small garden-bed adjustment.
- Handyman-level work with no machinery or excavation.
- Cheap temporary fixes that do not address the underlying site condition.
- Minor lawn leveling or ordinary landscape maintenance.
The visual standard
Work that looks organized because it is organized.
Clear access, proper equipment, defined drainage routes and controlled restoration create a better project experience from the first site visit through completion.

Residential project questions
Before you request an estimate.
These answers help homeowners understand the type of work Apex is built to handle and what information is useful during the first conversation.
What makes a grading project a good fit for Apex?
A strong fit involves machinery access, a meaningful area, substantial fill or soil movement, a major elevation problem, or grading connected to drainage and a broader exterior project.
Do you handle small yard leveling or handyman jobs?
No. The residential division is focused on work that requires equipment, excavation, significant material movement or a professionally planned drainage scope.
Can you complete drainage and grading together?
Yes. Many successful projects require both. Correcting grade without addressing water movement, or installing drainage without correcting the surrounding elevation, can leave the underlying problem unresolved.
Can related work be included after the site work?
Yes. Depending on the project, the scope may extend into gutters, concrete, irrigation, landscape installation or repair, hardscapes and walkways.
Is this page for commercial bid work?
No. This page is strictly for qualified residential leads. Developers, general contractors and municipal teams should use the separate commercial and horizontal site-work section.
