Purpose of the Hillside Slope Evaluation
The purpose of a hillside slope evaluation is to identify geologic, soil, and drainage conditions that may affect the stability of natural or graded slopes at residential properties. This assessment focuses on recognizing signs of slope distress, erosion, or instability that could impact foundations, retaining walls, and long-term site performance.
Hillside slope evaluations are commonly requested for hillside development, property transactions, or in response to observed slope movement or drainage concerns.
