Groundworks knows how to solve basement, and crawl space problems, the first time. Proudly serving Montana and Wyoming.

"WOW! Groundworks is a great, reliable company! We had the dream team, Ryan, Alejando (Alex) and Jose, working on our home. Ryan kept us informed on what was going on the during the whole project. Ryan and Alex were so reassuring of all our fears and concerns, we knew we were in good hands. Alex and Jose were so polite and talk about hard working!! All three of them went above and beyond, exceeding our expectations, saving some landscaping we didn't expect to be saved. They took great care with our landscaping and yard and did not cause any unexpected damage to any of it! They did a great job with the clean-up at the end of the job as well. These three men worked great together as a team. We were happy to see them everyday and a little sad when we said good bye."

Better Built Decks is a Montana based business. Started business in Fort Collins Colorado, however originally from here in Montana. I, Nathen Wolf as main operator, started working at 14 years old as an employee of Joe Webber from Everett Washington. Joe was a very talented and brilliant builder, Joe obtained an engineering degree and shared with me thru the years a ton of his knowledge such as building techniques, the structure of wood joints, properties of expansion, etc. We started off leveling and supporting structures such as houses, old buildings, and garages. then literally gutting everything such as wiring, plumbing, the whole interior and exterior getting ready for a complete rebuild. I was very fortunate to work with Joe, this experience has provided me the knowledge to install structures that could practically stand a lifetime or longer. Most projects are started and completed by me in a timely manner. If needed, I will normally hire very honest and skilled exempt contractors and sometime some highly recommended temp workers. No Job is too big, or too small.

You could say we have a reputation for green building expertise and spectacular design – but we prefer to let our work speak for itself. We are dedicated to all those homeowners in search of a new home full of design, imagination, and make-you-swoon features. No doubt, Sussex will create the new home of your dreams (and of your neighbors’ dreams). At Sussex Construction, we are known leaders in the building industry. We combine good taste and getting things done with exceptional results. Because it is not just about what you build. It’s how you build it. All this without burning a hole in your pockets. If you are searching for new custom home builders in Helena, MT your search is over!

"We are one of a handful of new construction purchases (within the last year). During the build process, they were great to work with. Once we closed, all that changed. We have to run space heaters during the winter months (a brand new home) due to the design of the ductwork and Sussex wouldn't lift a finger, we have flooding at the entrance to our property, and once again, Sussex did nothing. We had fixtures in the wrong place, and some were not what we ordered at all, and guess what? they did nothing!!.. As we began to speak with others in the community, we learned of a horrible reputation throughout Helena, as well as, a horrible place to be employed. All in all, stay away from Suxxit construction at all costs. Money is their motivation, not happy families"

Patios questions, answered by experts

While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you’re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location.

Whether a concrete walkway or sidewalk needs rebar depends on how it will be used. Walkways and sidewalks meant for light foot traffic don’t need rebar, and you can use wire mesh instead. But concrete surfaces that will see heavy machinery will likely need it.

Balconies and patios are both outdoor living spaces, but that’s where the similarities end. A balcony is an open space built on the second story of a home, while a patio is a structure built directly on the ground in front of or behind a house. Patios tend to be larger than balconies and are often made from concrete, stone, or brick. Decks and patios share a similar nature but still have distinct differences.

You should put gravel that is 3/4 to 1 inch under a concrete slab. However, depending on the project, local building codes may dictate the proper gravel size and shape. Some concrete slabs that do not hold significant weight may have a subbase of sand. Also, keep in mind that the subbase you choose will affect the cost of your concrete patio, walkway, or driveway.

The repair method for a damaged concrete patio depends on the type of damage. For surface cracks, a concrete crack filler is a quick and simple fix. For larger cracks or uneven slabs, you may need to hire a professional to pump a cementitious material under the sunken portion to lift it back into place. For heavy spalling and other surface damage, resurfacing may be the best and most affordable option. This includes pouring a new layer of concrete over the old layer.
