Verse of the Day
“Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.””
— Joshua 1:9 (WEB)
I work the north end of St. Charles County right where it bumps into Lincoln County — and that includes Wentzville, one of the fastest-growing cities in the whole metro. Whether you're on one of the established properties where the grade's settled wrong over the years or a newer place that never drained right, I'm Brandon Bange, and I'll grade your yard so the water leaves. I come bid every job myself.
Wentzville's grown into a mix — older homes on settled lots where the grade has slowly tilted the wrong way, and a flood of newer construction where the builder grade was never finished for drainage. Either way, the soil here doesn't shed water on its own; it needs a slope cut into it that runs the right direction. A lot of Wentzville folks call me because the established O'Fallon and St. Charles shops are stretched, and I'm close enough on the Lincoln County side to get out fast without treating you like ticket number four-thousand.
Wentzville sits near the I-70 and Highway 40-61 crossroads at the western edge of St. Charles County, and it's been one of the fastest-growing cities in Missouri for years. That growth shows up in the dirt: subdivision after subdivision of new builds, each one handed over with a pad-graded yard that was never finished to drain. New-build pad prep and fresh-subdivision drainage is a huge share of the work out here.
The flip side is the established neighborhoods, where grades that worked twenty years ago have settled until water started creeping toward the house. Re-cutting the slope so it falls away from the foundation is bread-and-butter grading, and it's the cheaper fix when there's somewhere lower for the water to head. When the lot's too flat for that, a French drain carries it out instead.
Being based just over the line in Lincoln County, I can usually get to a Wentzville job faster than the busier St. Charles shops — and you'll always know it's me, the owner, standing in your yard giving you the number.

Yep. Wentzville's right on the line and an easy run for me. Being a little closer on the Lincoln County side means I can usually get out faster than the busier St. Charles shops.
That's a common Wentzville job. Grades settle and shift, and water starts heading toward the house instead of away. I re-cut the slope so it drains right again — that's yard grading and leveling. I'll give you a straight number when I look at it.
Yes — with so much new construction out here, pad prep is steady work. I excavate, level, and compact a flat pad to the dimensions your concrete crew needs. See driveway building and pad prep.
