Commercial Contractor in Fort Knox, KY
Fort Knox is a census-designated place and US Army installation spanning parts of Hardin, Meade, and Bullitt counties. We are a licensed and insured Kentucky contractor working the counties around it. The realistic path onto the installation itself is as a subcontractor to a prime contractor that already holds the work, so most of what we do in this area is off-post — Radcliff, Vine Grove, Elizabethtown, and Brandenburg.

Commercial Sitework in Fort Knox
Off-post excavation, grading, drainage, and demolition for apartment complexes, retail, restaurants, schools, and industrial property in the communities that serve the installation. For prime contractors and commercial GCs working the corridor, we bid defined sitework packages as a subcontractor.
We work Fort Knox commercial property the same way we work every job site — a written scope with inclusions, exclusions, and assumptions, licensed and insured coverage, and a crew that shows up on the date it says it will.
Site Prep, Demolition, Grading & Excavating
Site Preparation
Clear, cut, fill, compact, and stabilize before the first footing. Residential lots and commercial pads across Louisville Metro.
Demolition
House, garage, pool, barn, and slab tear-outs. Permits, asbestos screening, utility disconnects, full haul-off.
Land Grading
Rough grade, finish grade, swales, and drainage corrections on Jefferson County clay. Laser-shot when accuracy matters.
Excavating
Basements, footings, ponds, utility trenches, French drains. Soil probed and rock surcharge written before we sign.
Soil & Site Conditions
The Fort Knox area sits on the Muldraugh Hill escarpment — limestone and shale with shallow bedrock on the ridges and deeper silt loam in the valleys and along Otter Creek. Rock is a normal condition on excavation here, and steep transitions make erosion control a real part of the scope.
Permits & Jurisdiction
Work on the installation is controlled by the Army through the contractor holding that award, not by local permit offices. Off-post work is permitted by the City of Radcliff, the City of Vine Grove, Hardin County, or Meade County depending on where the property sits, with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet handling state route entrances.

Commercial Scopes We Self-Perform
Commercial Excavation & Sitework
Pad prep, cut and fill, trenching, and rough grade for commercial sites — with compaction that gets documented, not assumed.
Parking Lot Construction & Repair
New lots, expansions, drive lane repair, curb and gutter — phased so the property never loses all its parking at once.
ADA Curb Ramps, Sidewalks & Parking Compliance
Accessible parking stalls, access aisles, curb ramps, and walkway slope corrections built to current dimensional standards.
Dumpster Pads & Enclosure Slabs
Heavy-duty pads and approach aprons sized for the hauler's truck — because asphalt under a loaded roll-off never wins.

Dock aprons, truck courts, and trailer parking poured for landing gear and loaded axles — one section at a time, doors stay open.
Commercial Storm Drainage & Detention
Catch basins, storm piping, trench drains, regrading, and detention work — for properties that hold water where people have to walk and park.
Commercial Demolition & Site Clearing
Slab, pavement, and small structure removal plus site clearing — utilities disconnected first, debris hauled, site left ready to build.
