Hello all, looking to fix my mother's yard that's been a mess of a swamp since her house was built. The builder didn't grade the 1 acre lot before building, and my mother didn't know there would be any issues cause it looked fairly flat. All these years later we've found many low spots in the yard that hold water for weeks at a time. How do I start the process of figuring out how to grade the areas? I can raise the house so I'm going to need to start close to the foundation and grade out from there. Her land shares a border with her pasture so water runoff won't be an issue. I've got a box blade and a chain harrow, and FEL to work with. Haven't used a box blade or the chain harrow yet, just got them recently.
Pics of last week when I picked up the bush hog and box blade.
