Yard Leveling in Apex
Yard leveling material in Apex starts at $10/yard for fill dirt and $17/yard for topsoil. Apex sits on the Triassic Basin: dense clay subsoil with high shrink-swell potential that drains slowly, typical of the Triassic Basin under western Wake County. Clay that shrinks in drought and swells in rain is a top cause of uneven yards, creating bumps, dips, and drainage problems that worsen over time. For shallow leveling (under 6 inches), screened topsoil alone works well. It grades easily with a rake and supports grass growth immediately. For deeper fills, use clean fill dirt to bring the area to within 4-6 inches of final grade, then cap with topsoil. Always grade away from your house at 1-2% slope (about 1 inch per 8 feet) to prevent foundation drainage problems.

Yard Leveling FAQ: Apex
Material cost: fill dirt at $10/yd, topsoil at $17/yd. A typical 1,000 sqft yard leveled 6 inches deep needs about 19 yards ($190-$323). Add equipment rental ($150-300/day) if DIY, or $50-100/hr for a professional grading operator.
Length × Width × Depth (all in feet) ÷ 27 = cubic yards. Example: 30×20ft area filled 6 inches (0.5ft) deep = 11 yards. Add 10-15% for compaction. Text us your dimensions and we'll calculate it.
Shallow fixes (<6 inches): topsoil only ($17/yd). Deep fills (>6 inches): fill dirt ($10/yd) for the base, topsoil ($17/yd) for the top 4-6 inches. This saves money and creates a proper growing surface.
Spring or early fall, when temperatures are moderate and new grass can establish before summer heat or winter dormancy.
Our clean fill dirt comes from a network of local excavation, grading, and construction projects near each delivery site, not a quarry or aggregate yard. That cuts out aggregate-yard markup and keeps haul distance short, which is what lets us offer the lowest delivered price on fill dirt rather than pricing off a fixed rate card. Every load is still screened for debris before delivery. Sourcing locally doesn’t mean lower quality, it means lower cost.

If you have a valid quote from a real delivery company for the same material and yardage delivered in Apex, text it to (704) 980-0935 and we'll beat it. There's no yardage ceiling above the 20-yard minimum — it applies all the way up to full wholesale and builder-program orders. It covers genuine quotes from real, legitimate businesses; it doesn't cover orders under 20 yards, private individuals, informal cash arrangements, or quotes that aren't for an actual delivered price.
