Tenant Finish Out
We finish out retail and commercial spaces as one job: roofing, HVAC, polished concrete, drywall, insulation, doors, cabinets and countertops. One company manages every trade from the bare shell to the finished space.

Aledo is growing fast, and most new homes in its 76008 ZIP code sit outside the city limits. Dirt work in Aledo means Grand Prairie ground. Thin, stony soil covers the limestone, with clay flats and creek bottoms in between. A house pad or a long gravel drive has to fit that rock and that water.
Bankston's Builders does heavy-equipment dirt work, and Aledo is part of our service area, just west of Fort Worth. We clear acreage, then cut and compact building pads for homes and commercial buildings. We also take on custom home construction for select clients, from the pad to the finished house. Call or text (214) 557-5106 and tell us about the land.

The NRCS soil survey of Parker County maps Grand Prairie soils over limestone around Aledo. Across the 76008 ZIP, the soil it maps most is the Aledo-Bolar association. Aledo soil, which shares the town's name, reaches hard limestone 9 to 20 inches down. The Bolar soil runs deeper, with rock at 20 to 40 inches.
Inside the city limits, Denton clay is the most common soil on the map. It reaches limestone 40 to 60 inches down and cracks up to about 2 inches wide when dry. Frio clay lines the creek bottoms, where the survey flags flooding. Sandy Cross Timbers soils, post oak country, show up only at the west and northwest edge of the ZIP.
That ground sets the plan for every pad. The survey rates the Aledo soil very limited for shallow digging, because hard rock sits so close. It rates Denton clay very limited for houses on a concrete slab, because of high shrink-swell. On either soil, a slab pad needs the right fill and the right compaction.
The 2010 Census counted 2,716 people in Aledo. The 2020 count was 4,858, and the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate is 7,122. That is nearly half again as many people as the 2020 count. The city permitted 103 new single-family homes in 2024 and 63 more in 2025.
The city covers under 3 square miles of land, and its 76008 ZIP covers about 81 square miles. The ZIP takes in Annetta, Annetta North, Annetta South, part of Willow Park and part of Fort Worth. Walsh Ranch Parkway runs through the Fort Worth part, which still sits in Parker County. About three quarters of the ZIP's land sits outside any city limits.
That is acreage country. Inside the city, Aledo's Agriculture district sets a 2-acre minimum lot, and its Estate district sets 1 acre. Out in the county, Parker County's subdivision rules set a 1-acre minimum lot.
Each of those lots needs a level pad and a drive that sheds water. Where brush and trees cover the tract, land clearing comes first. For a commercial lot on FM 1187 or near Interstate 20, the pad follows the site engineer's grading plan.
The Clear Fork of the Trinity River runs through Aledo. Bear Creek and Marys Creek drain other parts of the ZIP. FEMA's flood maps show 100-year flood zones and a regulatory floodway inside the city limits. Aledo's code calls for a floodplain development permit there, with finished floors set above the 100-year flood level.
The city's subdivision rules also protect the land downstream. On a tract of 5 acres or more, collected runoff has to leave by existing drainage, such as a creek. Otherwise the owner needs a drainage easement or a notarized letter from the affected owner downstream. Our site drainage work sets swales and culverts to fit those rules.
Clay matters for roads too. The soil survey rates Denton and Krum clay very limited for local roads, for low strength and shrink-swell. A drive across that clay needs a compacted base under the gravel or caliche, plus side ditches. Our road building covers private drives and ranch roads, out to FM 1187 or the county road.
