What Are Topsoil Grades?

Topsoil is the upper layer of soil commonly used for lawns, planting areas, landscape beds, grading, and property improvements. Topsoil grades generally describe differences in the material’s quality, consistency, screening, and intended application.

Topsoil can vary in texture, organic content, and the amount of stones, roots, or other natural material present. Choosing the right topsoil depends on whether the project involves filling, grading, lawn preparation, planting, or creating a finished landscape surface.

Topsoil Grades, Types, and Common Uses

Different topsoil grades are suited for different project needs. While grade names and material composition can vary by supplier, the types of topsoil used for a project are generally selected based on the application and desired finished surface.

Fill-grade topsoil is generally used where bulk material is needed to build elevation, fill low areas, or prepare a site before installing finished topsoil.

Common applications include:

  • Filling low areas
  • Rough grading
  • Raising site elevations
  • Backfilling
  • General site preparation

Fill-grade material is typically chosen for building and shaping the site rather than creating the final lawn or planting surface.

General-purpose topsoil is used for a variety of landscaping and property improvement applications where a workable soil material is needed.

Common applications include:

  • Lawn preparation
  • Landscape beds
  • General planting areas
  • Leveling uneven ground
  • Property improvements

The exact composition and consistency of general-purpose topsoil can vary, so the intended application should be considered when selecting material.

Screened topsoil is processed to remove larger rocks, roots, and debris, creating a more consistent material that is easier to spread, rake, and grade.

It is commonly selected for:

  • New lawn installations
  • Lawn repairs
  • Garden beds
  • Planting areas
  • Final grading
  • Landscape renovations

Its smoother consistency makes it a popular choice for projects requiring a cleaner finished appearance.

Choosing the Right Topsoil Grade

The right topsoil depends on the purpose of your project. Fill-grade material is commonly used when raising or reshaping land, while screened topsoil is typically preferred for lawns, planting beds, and finished landscape surfaces. 

If your project includes gardening or specialized planting, additional soil amendments may also be recommended depending on existing soil conditions. If you’re unsure which material best fits your project, our team can help you determine the right topsoil based on your application and delivery needs.
