Framing Done Right the First Time

From single-family homes to six-story apartment complexes, Advanced Custom Builders frames residential and commercial projects across Missoula County, square, solid, and ready to pass inspection. New construction or existing structures, no job is too big or too small.

The Crew Builders and Homeowners Trust to Frame It Right

Framing is the backbone of any build. If it's not square, plumb, and solid, every trade that follows pays for it. It's also our specialty. Advanced Custom Builders frames custom homes, townhomes, apartments, and commercial buildings, on new construction and existing structures, all across the Missoula area.

We've stick-framed everything from single-family homes to 80,000-square-foot apartment complexes, and we pass framing inspection the first time, almost every time. That's not luck. It's measuring twice, building to code, and refusing to leave a detail unfinished.

Why Our Framing Stands Out

More Than Walls and a Roofline

Plenty of crews can frame a single-story house. Fewer can go six stories, pass inspection the first time, and keep building through a Montana winter. Here's what sets our framing apart.

01 — Up to 6 Stories

We Frame Higher Than Most Local Crews

Most framers in Missoula top out at three stories. We go up to six. We stick-frame full apartment complexes, buildings in the 80,000-square-foot range, and bring the same precision to a six-story build that we bring to a single-family home. If your project is bigger or taller than the average crew wants to tackle, it's exactly the kind of work we're built for.

"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. A huge testament to the quality they put out."

02 — Passes Inspection

Built to Pass the First Time

A failed framing inspection means delays, rework, and added cost for every trade behind us. We don't let that happen. We build to code, detail every connection, and double-check the work before the inspector ever arrives, which is why we pass the first time, almost every time. It's also why the county inspector refers homeowners and builders to us: our framing holds up to scrutiny.

"Tony is amazing and fair priced. Quality work each time so far, and great about responding to questions. Had a call back once for a simple fix — his guys had the solution immediately. I always call and always use ACB."

We Frame Through Montana Winters

When the weather turns, a lot of framing projects stall, and timelines slip for months. Not ours. We've framed through blizzards and kept building safely and to standard when other crews packed up. For a build, that kind of dependability is the difference between moving in on schedule and watching costs climb while the project sits.

Cold, snow, or shoulder-season mud, we plan for it, work through it, and keep your framing on track.

04 — What We Frame

From Custom Homes to Commercial Builds

Our framing crew handles a wide range of projects: custom homes, townhomes, multi-family apartments, and commercial buildings, new construction from the subfloor up, or framing work on existing structures and additions. Whether you're a homeowner building your forever home or a general contractor who needs a reliable framing partner, we bring the same standard to every job.

Need more than framing? We also handle siding, gutters, decks, and additions, so one crew can carry your project further.

The Framing Crew the County Inspector Recommends

There's a reason general contractors and the county inspector send framing work our way. We frame taller than most local crews, sweat the details that make an inspection pass on the first visit, and build with locally sourced materials whenever we can. Two decades of experience stand behind every wall we raise.

Tony and his crew were incredible to work with. They did an exceptional job on our framing project. I was a little nervous contracting out framing, and Tony set all my worries aside. He has an incredible attention to detail, and all my neighbors were super impressed by the speed and quality of their work. His crew were respectful, diligent, hard workers — I would fully trust him on any project.
