Big day for Kelley Co Contracting 💪🏽🏠
After nearly 4 months of planning, demolition, framing, and prep work, we’re finally installing the new windows and doors on this remodel project. This is one of those stages where the vision really starts coming to life and the entire feel of the home changes.
A lot of long days, coordination, and hard work have gone into getting to this point, and we’re proud to see it all finally coming together. Excited to keep pushing forward and bring this project across the finish line the right way.

A lot of people think once the concrete wall is poured, the hard part is over. Truth is — what goes around the foundation matters just as much as the wall itself.
One of the biggest mistakes we see on failed foundations is improper backfilling. Clay packed tight against a wall, poor drainage, no clean rock, and water sitting against concrete year after year. That pressure adds up.
We got called out this morning to look at a foundation that’s only around 30 years old with several major cracks. Most of the damage could’ve been prevented with proper drainage and backfill practices from day one.
Here’s why clean rock and proper grading matter:
• Clean rock allows water to drain DOWN and AWAY instead of building pressure against the wall
• It reduces hydrostatic pressure that pushes on the concrete over time
• It helps prevent freeze/thaw expansion during winter months
• It protects waterproofing and helps foundations last decades longer
• A gentle slope away from the home keeps surface water from pooling around the structure
Concrete is strong — but constant water pressure and expanding soil will eventually win if drainage isn’t handled correctly.
At Kelley Co we believe doing the unseen work right matters just as much as the finished product you see above ground.
Foundations aren’t something you want to do twice.

Wrapped up this patio project in Mokane and turned the space into something built to last. Clean work, and solid grade, 👊🏼

Final phase on this patio project here in Mokane.
Took this from raw ground to a clean, solid outdoor space built the right way—from the base prep to the walls and finish work.
Details going in now and we’re just about wrapping this one up. Always takes a little extra to make it look right and last.
If you’re in the area and thinking about a patio, retaining wall, or concrete work, feel free to reach out.

Kelley Co getting it done. We poured the walls today, worked through a little rain and a few challenges, and still delivered a solid finished product. Conditions aren’t always perfect, but consistency, grit, and quality work always win.
Next phases are bringing this project to life with a new patio area and basketball court. Stay tuned—this one is going to turn out sharp. 💪🏽
