Construction Site Services - COMMUNITY PROJECTS
This is such a great idea—why didn't we think of it first? Oh well, at least Caleb Beaudin and Corey Williamson were nice enough to think of asking for our help! This partnership of progressive minds are leading a green building project that will blow your socks off! Make My House Green's website reports that "MMHG will tear down a home that was originally built in 1925 and reconstruct the house into an eco-friendly home. The home will be rebuilt using: the materials that were extracted from the house, energy efficient windows, doors and appliances, and eco harvested materials and locally engineered and produced goods and services....During this remodel project there will be 6 educational events that the public will be invited to attend. These seminars will give cost effective demonstrations that make sense to the average home owner. You may or may not be able to do all the “green” feature remodel upgrades but there certainly are methods we all can do such as reuse materials from your home." Construction Site Services is donating the recycling of both demolition waste and new construction debris. As you can see from the photo above, there's enough wood, drywall and shingles to keep us grinding for a while!
Ever noticed those tiny parcels of neglected land in Missoula that are deemed too small for development? Tim Skufca of Kibo Group Architecture took on the challenge of transforming one such neglected triangle into a neighborhood "pocket park". Just across the street, Missoula Fire Station #2 was going to be razed and rebuilt, so Tim got us involved in recycling the demolition materials so they could be used in the Park project. He and other volunteers from the Rose Park Neighborhood are using the aggregate and mulch we produced from the building's debris to fill and landscape the Park. Take a spin past 247 Mount Avenue to check on the projects' progress (both Triangle Park and the rebuilding of the fire station). The park will eventually include landscaping, benches, and a labryinth! CSS employs workers from Opportunity Resources
CSS teamed up with clients from Opportunity Resources (OR), an organization that assists disabled persons with employment and housing. OR serves approximately 350 individuals with a variety of disabilities. Last year, they assisted sixty individuals in finding jobs. CSS and their OR crew are now working together weekly, resulting in a win-win combination! |

Northside home gets a new roof Construction Site Services arrives to clean up the mess Richard is a disabled veteran and senior citizen who cannot work and depends upon Social Security to pay for the bare necessities. He strives to give back to the community and regularly volunteers at Mission 3:16. He was raised in the home where he still resides, and his house means a great deal to him; however, he has not been able to maintain it on his own. Richard's roof had been leaking for over a decade, and his efforts to find help had been unsuccessful. Recently, thanks to the efforts of many generous community members, businesses, and organizations, Richard now has new shingles and a dry place to live. |
