We work St. Matthews 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
St. Matthews soil is the classic east-end profile — silt loam over Jefferson clay, with Beargrass Creek tributaries running through several pockets. Some properties have known basement-water issues that need real drainage planning, not band-aids.
Permits & Jurisdiction
City of St. Matthews handles its own building and grading permits separately from Louisville Metro. Driveway aprons on Shelbyville Road and other state routes need a KYTC entrance permit.

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.
Loading Docks & Truck Court Paving
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.
