Comment: I am building my home on the side of a hill. The elevation difference between the site of the home-to-be and the bottom most side of the property is about 20 feet. The hill is rocky and this location is in South San Jose, CA. This property will be about 2000 sq ft. I am looking to buy a strip of property adjacent to this property so that I may turn that entire property into a driveway to connect this property to a nearby main road as access to my home. The driveway will be about 20' wide and where the driveway meets the house in front of the garage will have a surface dimension of about 40' x 60'. The total area of the property is approximately 0.5 acre with a grade of approximately 7%. Excavation would only need to occur where the home is to be built. I plan on installing the drainage system personally so that will not be part of the work scope.

Comment: House basement is shifting in an expansive soil area. We recently installed downspouts and need drainage for them. In addition, the garage is at a low point in the lawn and water enters when it rains at the least we need a trench drain installed near the garage door, but there other areas of the garage slab are getting water in them. It would be ideal to drain the water outside of the property if possible.
