About our Bozeman concrete contractor company

We build driveways, patios, slabs and foundations in Bozeman and the cities around it. I walk every job myself, and we plan the ground under your concrete before any truck is booked.

How our Bozeman concrete company started

  • Learning on a crew

    I started out as a helper on a small concrete crew, hauling, setting forms and learning the trade from the people I worked under. What stayed with me is that a slab is only as good as the ground under it and the planning done before the truck shows up, because neither one can be fixed once the concrete is down.

    I opened First Choice Bozeman Concrete in 2017 on that idea. I'd rather move a pour date than rush one, and I want you to know exactly what you're paying for before we start.

  • How we work now

    Today we're best known for flatwork, the driveways, patios, sidewalks and slabs that sit right on the ground, and for foundations that get planned properly before anyone orders concrete. I'm still on our jobs myself, which is how I like it.

    Most of our calls come from homeowners, along with some small builders and business owners in Bozeman and the cities around it. You can see everything we do on our home page.

The values behind our work

These come from what I learned on a crew, and they're still how we run each concrete job around Bozeman.

  • Base before the finish

    If a budget gets tight, we'd trim the finish before the base, because a soft subgrade, the ground your slab sits on, settles and takes the concrete with it.

  • Estimates spelled out

    Your written estimate says what's included and what isn't, so you can line it up fairly against other quotes and know what you're paying for.

  • Owner on your pour

    I walk your job, write the estimate and then work on the crew that pours it, so nothing gets lost between what we agreed and what goes in.

  • Licensed, insured, permits checked

    We're licensed and insured, and Montana now requires every construction contractor to hold a state license. Before work starts, we check permit questions with the office that covers your address.

How we handle each job

  • Questions before answers

    I ask how you use the space, where water runs and what will sit or park on it before I suggest a thickness or a finish.

  • A pour plan first

    We talk through pour timing and how we'll protect fresh concrete before we book a date, so you know the plan going in.

  • Cracks where we choose

    We cut control joints, the grooves that give a slab a planned place to crack, so any cracks follow lines we picked instead of wandering.

  • Time to cure

    We tell you how long to stay off new concrete and why, because curing, the slow hardening after the pour, decides how strong the surface ends up.

  • Water away from the house

    We check where water runs before we set forms, so your new slab is built to drain away from the house instead of toward it.

  • Licensed and insured.
