The phrase references a process undertaken to correct unevenness in an outdoor ground area, typically involving the redistribution of soil or the addition of fill material to create a smooth, uniform surface. This service is often sought by property owners who notice dips, bumps, or inconsistent grades in their lawns.
Correcting ground irregularities can improve a property’s aesthetic appeal, eliminate standing water, prevent erosion, and enhance usability for activities like gardening or recreation. Historically, manual labor was the primary method, but modern services utilize machinery for efficiency and precision, contributing to long-term landscape health and value.
