    Commercial Site Works in Northern Kentucky

    Drainage, retaining walls, pavers, irrigation, and grading across Florence, Covington, Newport, Hebron, and the Boone, Kenton, and Campbell county logistics corridor. SD1-compliant, KEPSC-qualified.

    A Northern Kentucky-Headquartered Site Works Contractor

    RCG is headquartered in Crescent Springs and has been doing commercial construction work across Northern Kentucky for years. The Site Works division extends that local footprint into landscape installation, drainage, and hardscape — and it's particularly well-suited to the NKY market. Sanitation District No. 1 (SD1) is the regional stormwater utility for Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties, with rules that differ from Cincinnati's Hamilton County requirements. The CVG logistics corridor in Hebron has driven a wave of warehouse and distribution facility development with associated parking, drainage, and erosion control demand. The Florence retail corridors and OneNKY/Newport mixed-use redevelopment have generated commercial site work pipeline that local install contractors aren't fully covering. RCG's ability to handle KEPSC-qualified erosion control on KY jobs ≥1 acre is a meaningful credential — and one most regional landscape companies can't match.

    • SD1 Stormwater Compliance: Drainage retrofits and detention designed to Sanitation District No. 1's Storm Water Rules and Regulations.
    • CVG Logistics Corridor: Site work for warehouse and distribution facilities — parking lot pavers, perimeter drainage, retaining wall grade transitions, and erosion control on the active development pipeline near CVG.
    • Florence Retail Corridors: Parking lot upgrades, paver entry features, drainage retrofits, and ADA walkway compliance for the Florence and Boone County retail centers.
    • Healthcare Campuses: St. Elizabeth Healthcare's Florence expansion and the broader NKY medical network — site work for healthcare renovations, including ICRA-aware coordination on occupied campuses.
    • Tenant Improvement Site Work: Exterior refreshes and ADA walk upgrades tied to tenant improvement projects under one RCG contract.
    • KEPSC Inspector on Staff: Required for KY jobs at or above the 1-acre disturbance threshold under KYR10.

    Florence, Covington, Newport, Hebron — All Covered

    Our HQ in Crescent Springs is central to the NKY metro — minutes from Florence, Covington, Newport, Erlanger, Hebron, and Independence. We're as comfortable doing site work for a Florence retail center as we are for a Covington office building or a Hebron logistics facility.

    SD1 Stormwater Aware

    SD1's Storm Water Rules and Regulations differ from the Hamilton County rules across the river. We design drainage retrofits and detention to SD1's local water quality volume requirement and coordinate with SD1's reviewer staff during permit submittal — not after a redline kicks the design back.

    KEPSC-Qualified for KY Construction Permits

    Kentucky's KYR10 general construction permit applies to construction activity disturbing 1 acre or more, requiring KEPSC (Kentucky Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control) qualified inspector signoff at periodic intervals. Tony's team includes KEPSC certificate holders — a credential most NKY landscape competitors don't carry.

    Northern Kentucky Commercial Site Works FAQs

    All of Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties — Florence, Covington, Newport, Erlanger, Crescent Springs, Independence, Hebron, Burlington, Walton, Union, Wilder, Bellevue, Dayton (KY), Fort Mitchell, Fort Wright, Edgewood, and Highland Heights. Crescent Springs HQ keeps us central to the metro.

    Yes — contractor registered with Florence/Boone County, Covington, and the other major NKY municipalities where we operate. State-level: registered with the Kentucky Secretary of State and licensed/insured for commercial construction in KY.

    Sanitation District No. 1 is the regional stormwater and sanitary sewer utility serving Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties. SD1's Storm Water Rules and Regulations govern post-construction stormwater management on commercial properties in NKY — and they differ from the Hamilton County rules across the river. We design to SD1's specific requirements.

    Yes. KYR10 (Kentucky's general construction stormwater permit) requires a KEPSC-qualified inspector to perform periodic inspections on jobs at or above the 1-acre disturbance threshold. We have KEPSC certificate holders on staff and can provide that service as part of our scope.

    RCG already does commercial GC work for healthcare clients with ICRA considerations. Site Works extends that into exterior scope on healthcare campuses — drainage retrofits, retaining walls at grade transitions, walkway pavers, and parking lot upgrades. Our ICRA training transfers as a soft credential — useful for coordinating with infection prevention teams on dust and traffic management during exterior work near patient areas.
