Site Preparation & Grading in Medford, WI

At A&C Excavating Equipment, we specialize in professional site preparation and grading for residential, agricultural, and light commercial projects throughout Medford and central Wisconsin. Whether you’re breaking ground for a new home, building a garage, or preparing farmland for use, our crew ensures your project starts with a solid foundation.

We handle every phase of the process — from land clearing and rough grading to final leveling and compaction. With precise equipment, years of hands-on experience, and a strong understanding of local soil conditions, we make sure your site is ready for construction, drainage, and long-term stability.

Built for Wisconsin Ground Conditions

Wisconsin terrain comes with its own challenges — uneven land, heavy clay soils, and freeze-thaw cycles that can affect stability. That’s why proper grading and site prep are so important. Our team designs each project with drainage, access, and future use in mind, preventing problems like erosion, pooling water, and shifting foundations.

Our site preparation and grading services include:

  • Land Clearing & Excavation – Removing brush, trees, and debris to create an open, workable area.

  • Rough & Finish Grading – Shaping and leveling the surface to meet project specifications.

  • Foundation Excavation – Digging footings and basements for homes, garages, or additions.

  • Drainage Planning – Contouring land and ditches to direct water away from structures.

  • Driveway Culverts - (Learn More)

  • Pad Construction – Building strong, compacted pads for barns, shops, and outbuildings.

We combine the right equipment and techniques to produce smooth, compacted surfaces that hold up to Wisconsin’s elements year after year.

Built on Experience and Precision

Every property is different, and even a few inches of grade can determine how well a site drains or how a foundation settles over time. Our crew combines modern grading equipment with years of hands-on knowledge to make precise adjustments that less experienced contractors might overlook. We routinely collaborate with local builders, surveyors, and homeowners to align site elevations and layout plans before construction begins. This attention to detail ensures a smoother building process and helps prevent costly rework or water issues long after the project is complete.

Our Process for Reliable Results

Our work doesn’t start with digging — it starts with planning. We assess your property, project goals, and soil type before determining the best approach to achieve the correct grade and compaction.

Our step-by-step process includes:

  • Site Consulting & Design Review – We walk your property, propose layout options, and plot the ideal alignment with water sources and topography.

  • Excavation & Basin Shaping – We remove soil according to plan, grade transitions, and smooth contours for liner compatibility.

  • Liner or Seal Installation – Clay compacting, geotextile liners, or synthetic membranes are installed to hold water appropriately.

  • Spillway & Overflow Works – Installing pipes, concrete risers, or rock-lined channels for safe water regulation.

  • Edge Finishing & Vegetation – Stabilizing banks with stone, planting grass or buffer zones, and restoring surrounding soil.

  • Final Fill & Testing – Slowly filling the pond to check for leaks, monitor settling, and make final adjustments.

By following this workflow, we minimize rework and ensure your pond performs reliably over time.
