What earthwork services do you offer?
Garrett Property Management provides site preparation, grading, land clearing, trenching, foundation digs, drainage installation, excavation, and storm debris removal for residential properties in Vero Beach and Indian River County.
Why is professional site preparation important before construction?
Proper site prep ensures stable foundations, correct drainage, and minimizes settlement or shifting in Florida’s sandy soils. Professional preparation prevents problems with home stability and reduces the risk of foundation and landscaping failures.
Do I need a permit for earthwork projects?
Permits are often required for major excavation, grading, or land alteration in Vero Beach and Indian River County. The specific requirements depend on the scope of work and property zoning, so homeowners should check with county authorities or let us assist in the permitting process.
How are drainage and flooding concerns addressed in Vero Beach?
Proper grading and drainage system installation prevent water accumulation and foundation issues, especially with the high water table and heavy rains common to the region. Techniques include re-sloping, French drains, swales, and surface water redirection.
What can cause soil or foundation problems in Florida?
The most common soil-related issues in the area are caused by uncompacted fill, high water tables, organic soils (peat/muck), and occasional limestone voids. These conditions can cause settling, cracking, and water intrusion if not addressed during earthwork.
How much does earthwork typically cost in Vero Beach?
Costs vary by project size and complexity. Factors include lot size, site access, soil conditions, and the scope of services (e.g., clearing, grading, trenching). Free, customized quotes are available by request.

Earthwork is done with careful planning to control erosion, maintain natural water flow, and minimize disturbance to native vegetation. Best practices and compliance with local environmental regulations are a priority.
