Concrete, Foundations & Site Work
The Groundwork Behind Every Good Build
Built on a Foundation You Can Trust
Everything built above ground depends on what’s underneath it. Concrete slabs, footings, foundations, and site preparation determine how well a building holds up, how well it drains, and how long its finishes last. Built Right Construction helps homeowners and business owners in the Fargo Moorhead area with concrete, foundation, and site work, whether that means preparing the ground for a new project, repairing a problem area, or building the base that other work depends on. Each project starts with a site visit to understand the conditions and what the work actually requires.
Ground conditions here are demanding. Heavy clay soils, deep seasonal frost, and repeated freezing and thawing move the ground in ways that put pressure on slabs, footings, and foundation walls. Spring thaw and high water tables add drainage concerns on top of that. Good concrete and site work accounts for those conditions through proper preparation, grading, and drainage, instead of treating the surface as the whole job. Cutting corners at this stage tends to show up later as cracks, settling, and water problems that cost far more to fix.
Todd Kirchoffner leads each project personally, and specialized trades are handled by trusted local subcontractors under his supervision, so you have one person accountable from the first site visit through the final walkthrough. Where a project calls for an engineer’s plans, permits, or inspections, those steps are part of the plan from the start. You’ll get a clear scope of work, an honest estimate, and updates as the job progresses, whether it’s a residential project or part of a commercial build-out.
Services Overview
Concrete, Foundations & Site Work covers the structural base and groundwork of a property: concrete slabs and flatwork, footings and foundation work, site preparation and grading, and the drainage details that protect them. It applies to new work, to repairs, and to the groundwork that goes into larger remodeling and build-out projects.

Highlight Features
- Residential and Commercial Properties: The same careful preparation applies to a home project and a business space.
- Owner-Led Oversight: Todd is involved in the work, not only the estimate, and stays accountable for the result.
Things to Keep in Mind
- Weather and season control the schedule. Concrete and groundwork depend on temperature and moisture, and cold weather limits what can be poured or prepared. Planning projects for the right season gives you more flexibility and avoids rushed work.
- Some projects need plans, permits, or an engineer. Foundation and structural work often require engineered plans or inspections, and that takes time. Raising it early helps you set a realistic timeline.

We’re here to help you!
Slabs and flatwork, footings, foundation repair, and site preparation as part of a larger project. We’ll walk the property first, explain what the work involves, and give you a clear estimate.
Late spring through early fall is generally the most reliable window, since temperature and moisture affect how concrete cures. Cold-weather projects can sometimes be planned with extra precautions, but schedules may shift. Contacting us early lets you get on the calendar before the busy season.
Common warning signs include cracks that keep growing, doors and windows that stick, uneven or sloping floors, gaps along walls, and water entering the basement or crawl space. Not every crack is serious, so the best step is a site visit. We’ll explain what we see and what your options are.
Where a project requires permits, inspections, or engineered plans, we build those steps into the schedule and coordinate them as part of the job.
