The partners
Jeffrey Helm & Travis Graden
Graden Helm Construction is owned and operated by two partners, Jeffrey Helm and Travis Graden, out of Monroe at the foot of the Cascades. We are a small company, which means the people quoting the job are the people building it.
What we do runs from roofing and custom decks to home remodels, siding, concrete and stone work, and the large agricultural and commercial shop buildings this part of Snohomish County needs. It is the work we know, so it is the work we take.
A small company that specializes in quality and craftsmanship.
That means a straight answer about what a job involves, and work that is built to last rather than built to turn over. If we take it, we stand behind it.

Before you call
The things people ask first
What kind of work do you take?
Roofing, deck building, home remodels, large shop and outbuilding construction, exterior work like siding, and concrete and stone masonry. If your project spans a few of those — a remodel that needs concrete and framing, say — that is the kind of job a small shop like ours is built for.
Which areas do you cover?
Monroe and the greater Snohomish County area. We are based on 241st Ave SE in Monroe. If you are not sure whether you fall inside that, call and we will tell you straight away rather than sending someone on a wasted trip.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free. We come out, look at the project with you, and put the scope in writing so you can read it before you decide anything.
Are you licensed, bonded and insured?
Yes. We hold Washington State contractor licence #GRADEHC751LZ with the Department of Labor & Industries, registered as a General Construction Contractor and currently active. We carry a $30,000 contractor bond through Merchants Bonding Company and $300,000 in general liability cover through Berkshire Hathaway Direct Insurance. You can look the licence up on the L&I website.
How do I get in touch?
Call (425) 293-2603 between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, Monday to Friday. We are closed on weekends. You can also email us at gradenhelmconstructionllc@outlook.com and we will get back to you.

How it works
From the first call to the last walkthrough
You will know what the work involves and what it covers, in writing, before anyone picks up a tool.
Call or message us
A sentence is enough. You will be talking to the two partners who do the work, not an office — the details can wait until we are standing on the site.
We come out and look
We walk the project with you, take measurements, and talk through what the work involves and where you have a choice to make.
You get a free written estimate
Broken out by scope, so you can see what each part of the job covers. Nothing is scheduled until you say yes to it.
We do the work and walk it with you
We keep you posted as the job moves along, clean up behind us, and go through the finished work with you at the end.
Monroe and Snohomish County.
We are on 241st Ave SE in Monroe and we work across the county. Tell us roughly what the job is — the estimate is free, it comes to you in writing, and nobody will chase you afterwards.
