About Falksway Construction: Missoula's Family-Owned Builder
About Falksway Construction means learning about a company built on more than three decades of hands-on trade experience. Founded in 2001 and rooted in the craft since 1995, we are a family-owned builder serving Missoula, MT and the surrounding areas with dedicated craftsmanship on every project we take on. From custom home builds to full-scale remodels, our work is guided by one principle: do it right, from the first blueprint to the final walkthrough.
Our Story
A Construction Company History Built in Missoula, MT
Falksway Construction was established in 2001, drawing on industry experience that dates back to 1995. Originally founded in Wisconsin, the company relocated its operations to Montana in 2016, bringing its trade expertise and family-owned values to the Intermountain West. Today, we are firmly rooted in Missoula County, serving homeowners who want a builder they can trust with a significant investment. Over the years, we have grown from a framing and siding specialist into a full-service design-build firm. That growth was intentional. By bringing design, planning, and construction under one roof, we give our clients a single point of accountability from concept to completion. No miscommunication between a designer and a separate contractor. No surprises when the build begins. Just a clear, managed process with an experienced construction contractor leading every phase.
What Sets Us Apart
Dedicated Craftsmanship Montana Homeowners Can Count On
What makes Falksway different comes down to how we work. We maintain an in-house team of framers, siders, and trim carpenters who handle the structural and finish work on every project. This is not the industry standard. Most general contractors rely heavily on subcontractors for these phases, which introduces scheduling uncertainty and inconsistent quality. We keep that work in-house because quality control matters too much to leave to chance. Our dedicated craftsmanship in Montana extends from the structural shell of a home to the intricate interior trim that defines a finished space. We also use 3D renderings during the design phase so clients can fully visualize their project before a single nail is driven. Combined with transparent contract options, including Fixed-Price and Cost-Plus agreements, our process is built to give homeowners the budget certainty and timeline confidence they deserve. We serve a 50/50 mix of new builders and renovators, and both groups share the same expectation: a superior finish delivered by people who genuinely care about the outcome. That is the family-owned builder approach we bring to every job in Missoula and beyond.
Common Questions
What Homeowners Ask Us Most
How long has Falksway Construction been operating in Missoula, MT?
Falksway Construction was formally established in 2001, backed by hands-on industry experience that dates back to 1995, giving the company over 30 years of trade knowledge. The firm originally operated in Wisconsin before relocating to Montana in 2016, where it has built a strong reputation in Missoula County serving both new homebuilders and renovators across the region.What does it mean that Falksway Construction is a family-owned builder?
Being a family-owned builder means clients work directly with the people who are accountable for the outcome. There is no corporate layer between you and the team doing the work. Decisions are made with care and precision rather than volume in mind. For high-spend projects averaging between $100,000 and $120,000, that personal accountability matters. Clients consistently choose Falksway because they want a close working relationship with a contractor who treats their home as seriously as they do.Does Falksway handle both design and construction, or just the building phase?
Falksway operates as a full design-build firm, meaning both phases are handled in-house. Services include concept development, feasibility studies, 3D renderings, drafting, permit acquisition, and full construction management. By keeping design and building under one roof, the firm eliminates the communication gaps that often cause costly changes mid-project. Clients move from a visualized plan directly into construction with the same team guiding the process from start to finish.Why does Falksway keep framing, siding, and trim work in-house rather than subcontracting it?
Maintaining an in-house team for framing, siding, and trim carpentry gives Falksway direct control over the quality and scheduling of the most critical phases of a build. Most contractors rely heavily on subcontractors for this work, which can introduce delays and inconsistent results. By self-performing these trades, Falksway reduces scheduling volatility and ensures the structural shell and finish details meet the same standard on every project, without depending on outside crews.What contract types does Falksway offer, and how do they protect my budget?
Falksway offers three contract types to match different project needs: Fixed-Price, Cost-Plus, and Time and Materials. Fixed-Price contracts account for about half of all projects and are ideal when the scope is clearly defined, giving homeowners full budget certainty upfront. Cost-Plus contracts work well for projects with less defined scopes, where transparency in actual costs matters most. Both options are designed to eliminate the hidden costs and financial surprises that homeowners frequently encounter on large construction projects.What areas does Falksway Construction serve beyond the city of Missoula?
Falksway Construction is based in Missoula, MT and serves homeowners throughout Missoula County and the surrounding areas, including communities like Arlee. Whether you are planning a custom home build in a rural setting or a whole-home renovation closer to the city, the team is equipped to manage projects across the broader region. The firm is fully licensed and insured within the City of Missoula and operates by appointment, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
