Grading—The Unsung Hero of Construction

Proper site preparation is the cornerstone of every successful build, making expert grading indispensable for long-term stability. At Durden Construction, we utilize high-tech leveling equipment to create a flawless base that effectively directs runoff away from your structures. This proactive approach prevents the costly sub-base failures often caused by the heavy coastal rains in Santa Cruz. Our operators carefully shape the land to ensure your project begins on solid, perfectly leveled ground. This meticulous attention to detail guarantees that your final surface remains level and crack-free for years to come.
