Frenchtown Framing, Siding, and Gutters, Built Right
Advanced Custom Builders is a family-owned Missoula County crew working Frenchtown and surrounding areas. From a gutter repair on Frontage Road to a full custom home on acreage, we sweat the small stuff and pass inspection the first time.

A Missoula Crew, Twenty Minutes Up the Interstate
Tony and Chalcia Frazier started Advanced Custom Builders in 2020 after Tony spent more than twenty years in construction. We frame and side homes, townhomes, apartments, and commercial buildings across Missoula County, and Frenchtown is close enough that our trucks are out this way constantly. You get the same crew, the same standard, and no travel charge — Frenchtown sits well inside our 45-mile radius.
Out here the jobs look a little different than they do in town. More acreage, more shops and pole barns, more homes taking wind off the Clark Fork bottom and snow off the Ninemile divide. We build for that, whether it's a new house on a bare lot, an addition on a place that's been in the family for decades, or siding that finally needs replacing after thirty Montana winters.

What You Get When You Hire a Missoula County Crew
Plenty of contractors will drive out to Frenchtown once. Fewer know the county inspector by name, frame through a January cold snap, and handle the framing, the siding, and the gutters with one crew. Here's what sets us apart.
We Know This Valley, Not Just This Zip Code
We're a Missoula family business, not a franchise passing through on a bid. We know the soil out on the flats, the snow loads coming off the Ninemile, and the wind that funnels down the Clark Fork corridor — and we build to all of it. Frenchtown is unincorporated, so permits and inspections run through Missoula County, and those are the same inspectors we work with every week. They know our framing holds up, which is part of why they refer homeowners and builders to us.
We also buy local. Locally-made materials and Missoula suppliers wherever we can, because supporting the valley is part of the job. See every area we serve across Missoula County.
"Tony and his team swung trusses the day before hurricane force winds came through Missoula and the next morning they were still locked in and solid. I think that is a huge testament to the quality that they put out."
See our profileWe Frame Up to Six Stories and Pass the First Time
Most framers around Missoula top out at three stories. We go up to six. We stick-frame full apartment complexes in the 80,000-square-foot range, and we pass framing inspection the first time, almost every time. That's not luck — it's measuring twice, building square, and refusing to leave a detail unfinished. For a Frenchtown build, that means a shell that's plumb, tight, and ready for the trades that follow.
Custom homes on acreage, townhomes, garages, shops, new builds, or repairs to what's already standing — if it needs framing, our crew has built it. Take a closer look at our framing services in Missoula County.
"They did an exceptional job on our framing project and he also did a tremendous job on our gutters. I was a little nervous contracting out framing, and Tony set all my worries aside."

The Shell That Keeps Montana Weather Outside
Siding and gutters take the worst of it out here — sun on the south wall all summer, freeze-thaw all winter, and snowmelt running off the roof for weeks in the spring. We install, replace, and repair James Hardie, LP SmartSide, Versetta Stone, vinyl, and sheet metal, along with soffit and fascia. On the gutter side we handle installation, repair, and cleaning, and we set the pitch and downspouts so water actually leaves your foundation instead of pooling against it. Homes on well and septic out in the county have every reason to care where that water ends up.

"Tony and his crew replaced all the gutters at my parents house. His response time and professionalism are excellent. His work is top notch."

A lot of Frenchtown families would rather add on than move — the land is the reason they're here. We build additions that tie into the existing structure cleanly, accessory dwelling units for aging parents or grown kids, garages and shops sized for real equipment, and Trex decks that hold up to the sun and the snow. Every one of them gets framed to the same standard as a new build, because a bad tie-in shows up years later in the drywall.

"Tony is amazing and fair priced. Quality work each time so far and is great about responding to questions. I always call and always use ACB."

We Don't Shut Down for a Montana Winter
When the weather turns, a lot of projects stall and timelines slip for months — and a stalled build out in the county sits exposed the whole time. Not ours. We've framed through blizzards and kept building safely and to standard when other crews packed up. Cold, snow, or shoulder-season mud on a county road, we plan for it, work through it, and finish the job we promised. That dependability is what keeps your build on schedule and your costs from creeping.
Our estimates are free and written in plain terms. For a home, we come out to your site; for commercial work, send us the plans. Either way, the number we quote is the number you can plan around. Read what our customers say.
"The team was prompt, professional, and incredibly efficient from start to finish. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident throughout the entire job."

Frenchtown Homeowner Questions
No. A small travel charge only applies outside a 45-mile radius, and Frenchtown is well inside that. Estimates are free either way — for a home we come out to the site, and for commercial work you can send us the plans.
Frenchtown is unincorporated, so building permits and inspections go through Missoula County rather than a city department. We work with those inspectors constantly and build to pass the first visit, so the process usually goes smoothly. We're happy to walk you through what your specific project will need.
No job is too big or too small. We've built 80,000-square-foot apartment complexes and we've also driven out to fix one section of damaged siding. If it's framing, siding, gutters, decks, or an addition, ask us.
Yes — that's most of what Frenchtown is. Custom homes on open lots, shops, garages, pole barns, ADUs, and additions on existing places. We frame for local snow and wind loads and we're set up to work sites that don't have city services at the property line.
We do. We don't shut down for weather. We've framed through blizzards and still delivered finished, code-compliant work. Building through Montana winters is how we keep your project on schedule instead of parked until spring.
Yes, Advanced Custom Builders is fully licensed and insured, and we're happy to send documentation on request. Every completed project also carries a one-year workmanship warranty from the date we finish, and we offer discounts for veterans and seniors.
