A building is only as ready as the dirt under it, so this is where every Aghorn Interests project actually begins.
Before a single column goes up, a raw parcel has to become a permitted, buildable pad. Aghorn Interests, LLC has managed that front end of commercial work across the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex since 2010: the entitlements, the civil scope, the utilities, and the structure that turns a piece of ground into something you can build on.
Principal Basil J. Privett, a Texas A&M–trained builder, starts that clock the day we take a job on. Zoning, platting, and franchise-utility timelines are slow and unforgiving, so we run them in parallel with design instead of waiting for drawings to land. Get the dirt right and the rest of the building follows on schedule.
One team carries a site from a zoning map through a standing frame, so nothing gets handed off and dropped between the entitlement desk and the field.

The paper side of construction moves slowly and rarely in a straight line. We treat it as scheduled work, not a formality tacked on at the end.
Zoning verification, special-use and variance requests, and plat submittals worked through the municipality that governs the parcel, so use and setbacks are settled before design commits to them.
Coordination with civil, geotechnical, and environmental engineers on soils, drainage, and site conditions, so the pad is designed for the ground it actually sits on and surprises surface early.
Building-permit packages, franchise-utility applications, and the inspection sequence tracked against the schedule, keeping the review clock from becoming the reason a project waits.

Grading, paving, detention, and the wet and dry utilities that make a parcel a working building site.
Once the approvals clear, the earthwork carries the schedule. We manage cut and fill, mass and fine grading, paving, and the detention and drainage a North Texas site plan requires, then bring in the franchise utilities and public infrastructure that tie the building to water, sewer, and power.
With the pad graded and utilities set, we put the structure up: the foundation, the frame, and the shell that everything else hangs on.
Spread footings, drilled piers, and slab systems designed to the geotechnical report, formed and placed to hold the structure square and dry through the life of the building.
Site-cast tilt-wall panels formed, poured, and erected on the pad, an efficient shell for the office, retail, and light-industrial buildings North Texas owners build most.
Structural-steel frames and long-span systems set and connected in the field by our own supervised crews, so the building comes out of the ground on schedule and ready for envelope.
Send us the site, the survey, or just the address. We will tell you what it takes to turn it into a pad and a building.
