Terms and Conditions

Effective January 1, 2026

Helena Concrete, concretehelena.com, info@concretehelena.com

Accepting these terms

These terms cover your use of the Helena Concrete website and any estimate, quote or job you get from us through it. By using the site, calling us or sending the contact form, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

Helena Concrete is a concrete contractor in Helena, MT. You can read more about who we are on our About page, or go back to our home page to see the work we do.

What these terms cover

We build and repair concrete for homes and businesses, including driveways, patios, sidewalks, steps, garage floors, foundations, footings, retaining walls and decorative and stamped work. The descriptions on this website are general and are meant to help you understand the work. They aren't a promise that every service fits every property.

Each job is set by a written estimate or contract that we agree on with you. If that written agreement says something different from these terms, the written agreement for your job wins.

Estimates and pricing

We give free in-person estimates with no obligation, because we need to see the site, the ground and the drainage before we can price a job fairly. An estimate is based on what we can see that day and the scope you describe to us.

Prices can change if the job changes. That includes added work you ask for, soft or unstable ground under the old slab, buried debris, roots or other conditions we only find once the old concrete is out. We'll tell you before we do extra work that changes the price, and we won't go ahead without your OK.

Any prices or examples on this website are general information. They aren't a quote for your property.

Scheduling, weather and cancellation

We schedule pours around the weather because rain, freezing temperatures and high heat can weaken a slab. If conditions on your pour day put the work at risk, we'll move the date, and we'll let you know as soon as we can.

Dates we give you are our best estimate and can shift for weather, material delivery, permit timing or delays on other jobs. We aren't responsible for costs you have because a date moved for reasons outside our control.

If you need to cancel or reschedule, please call us at (406) 324-9341 as early as you can. If we've already ordered materials or started work, you may owe for those costs, as your written estimate or contract sets out.

Payment

The payment schedule, any deposit and the accepted payment methods are set in your written estimate or contract. Payment is due on the dates it lists.

If a payment is late, we may pause work until it's made. Where Montana law allows, we may also add reasonable collection costs to an unpaid balance.

Your part in the job

You agree to give us safe access to the work area, to tell us about anything you know is buried there, like sprinkler lines, cables or tanks, and to confirm where your property lines are. If you've arranged a permit or an HOA approval yourself, you're responsible for having it in place before we start.

New concrete needs time to cure, which is the wait while it hardens and gains strength before it's used. We'll tell you when it's safe to walk and drive on, and we aren't responsible for damage from use before then.

Warranty and what isn't covered

We stand behind our work, and any warranty for your job is the one written in your estimate or contract. Apart from that written warranty, and to the extent Montana law allows, we don't make other promises about our work or this website.

Concrete can develop small hairline cracks over time even when it's built right, which is why we cut control joints, the straight grooves that give the slab a planned place to crack. Hairline cracks, small color differences, and damage from de-icing salt, heavy loads the slab wasn't built for, ground movement, tree roots or changes someone else makes to drainage aren't defects in our work.

Limits on our liability

To the extent Montana law allows, Helena Concrete isn't liable for indirect, incidental or consequential losses, such as lost use of your property or lost income, arising from our work or from this website. Our total liability for any claim about a job is limited to the amount you paid us for that job.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law doesn't allow us to limit.

Using this website

We try to keep the information on this site accurate and current, but it's offered as is and for general information only. We don't promise it's complete or free of errors, and you shouldn't rely on it in place of an estimate for your property.

The text, photos and design on this site belong to Helena Concrete. You may not copy or reuse them for business purposes without our written permission.

Settling a disagreement

If you're unhappy with our work or have a dispute with us, please call us first. Most problems get sorted out faster when we can come look at the concrete together, and we'll try in good faith to resolve it with you.

If we can't settle it that way, either of us may take the matter to a court with jurisdiction in Lewis and Clark County, Montana.

Governing law

These terms, and any job we do for you, are governed by the laws of the State of Montana, without regard to its conflict of law rules.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time, and the version posted on this page is the one that applies. Changes don't affect a written estimate or contract you've already signed with us.

Questions about these terms

If you have a question about these terms, call us at (406) 324-9341 or reach us through our Contact page. We reply within 1 business day.
