Laurel is a shift-work town — the CHS refinery on the river side, one of the biggest rail yards between the Twin Cities and the Pacific Northwest, and I-90 running past the north edge. Towns like that keep their houses squared away, and the concrete around a Laurel house works hard: front steps that take every winter head-on, sidewalks the whole block walks, driveways that carry trucks, and backyard patios that are the payoff for living here.
Ostermiller Construction pours patios, sidewalks and steps across Laurel, along with concrete driveways and full tear-out and replacement when a slab is past saving. We are based in Shepherd, on the far side of Billings — Laurel is an easy run down the interstate, and we are out this way constantly.

Backyard patios are the job we most enjoy in Laurel — a properly built pad turns a yard into the room the house was missing. We grade it to drain, base it to stay put, and finish it the way you want it, sized for the grill, the table and the fire pit rather than whatever square the last contractor liked pouring. Add a walk connecting it to the drive and it reads like it was always there.
Steps and sidewalks are where winter shows first. Stair treads spall from deicer, walk panels heave and settle into trip edges, and porch steps pull away from foundations. We remove and repour them — we do not jack or level settled concrete, because the base is the problem — and the new work gets the same air-entrained mix and drainage thinking as everything else we pour, so it is built for the next freeze, not just the next summer.
There is something fitting about paving in Laurel — asphalt is practically a hometown product, with the refinery turning out road materials a short haul from the driveways we work on. We handle asphalt paving and repair for residential drives and small commercial lots along the US-212 corridor and the I-90 frontage, plus crack sealing and seal coating that keep an existing surface alive for a fraction of the cost of redoing it.
On the concrete side, Laurel driveways get the full treatment: tear-out of the old slab, rebuilt base, proper grade and joints. And since US-212 out of Laurel is the road to Red Lodge, and Columbus sits just down the interstate, a Laurel job often anchors a whole week of work in the west end of the valley — being close by matters when it is time for the walk-through.
