My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Hire a local professional. Or several. An architect would have anticipated the issue and had a grading plan in place from the beginning by involving a grading contractor and landscape architect.
