Our Services
From a wet backyard to a full lot clear, here's what Reiss Demoscape handles.
Grading & Yard Leveling
Standing water, a soggy lawn, or a yard that slopes toward the house. Regrading moves water where it belongs and gives you a level, usable yard.
Learn more →French Drains & Yard Drainage
When regrading alone won't cut it, a French drain moves water underground and away from your house, lawn, or low spots.
Learn more →Excavation
Digging for patios, foundations, trenching, ponds, and driveways. Right-sized equipment for residential and small commercial sites.
Learn more →Land Clearing
Overgrown lots, brush, fence lines, and small-acreage parcels cleared and ready for what's next.
Learn more →Concrete Removal & Demolition
Old patios, driveways, sidewalks, and sheds torn out and hauled away, including retaining walls and old hardscape.
Learn more →Skid Steer Services
Dirt work, material spreading, rough grading, brush cutting, and small demolition. If it needs a skid steer and an operator, we can probably help.
Learn more →Tree Removal
Storm-damaged trees, hazard trees, stumps, and trees removed as part of a larger lot clearing project.
Learn more →Landscape Installation
Paver walkways and patios, gravel driveways, and landscape beds, from tear-out of the old to installation of the new.

A few things that set an owner-operated dirt-work contractor apart from a crew of subs.
Owner-Operated, Every Job
Shawn Reiss walks the property himself, gives you a straight answer on scope and price, and runs the equipment on your job personally, not a rotating crew of subs.
Right-Sized Equipment
Skid steers, mini excavators, and the attachments to match, sized for residential yards and driveways, not oversized commercial gear that tears up everything getting into position.
Haul-Away Included
Old concrete, cleared brush, and excess spoil leave with us when the job's done. No dumpster sitting in your driveway, no separate hauling bill.
Reiss Demoscape carries liability insurance on every job. Ask for proof of coverage when you call.
Water Where It Shouldn't Be?
Standing water in the yard. A lawn that stays soggy for days after rain. Ground that slopes toward the house instead of away from it. A basement that gets damp after storms because of water collecting outside. These are grading and drainage problems, and they don't fix themselves. Stark and Summit County's clay-heavy soil makes it worse. Water sits instead of soaking in.
Regrading: Fix the Slope
If your yard's slope is sending water toward the house or pooling in low spots, regrading reshapes the ground so water runs off the way it should.
See Grading & Yard Leveling →French Drains: Move It Underground
When there's nowhere for water to run off to, or the grade isn't the real problem, a French drain intercepts water and carries it away below the surface.
See French Drains →Not sure which one your yard needs? We do both, so we'll tell you what actually fixes the problem, not just what we sell.
