How We Work
What happens: We help you vet architects based on portfolio fit, fee structure, and communication style. If you already have an architect, we coordinate with them from the start.
What you get: Architect recommendations (if needed) and a three-way communication structure between you, the architect, and our team.
Step One: Architecture & Design Partnership
What happens: We apply value engineering from the schematic phase through design development, identifying budget challenges early and allowing for strategic cost adjustments before construction documents are finalized.
What you get: Confidence in a professional, comprehensive budget.
Step Two: Pre-Construction & Budget Development
What happens: Our project leaders run the job site, coordinate trade partners, procure materials, and navigate permitting. You get access to an online portal with the current schedule, budget tracker, and site photos.
What you get: Real-time updates, direct access to your project leader, and transparent budget tracking.
Step Three: Construction & Project Management
What happens: We walk you through the project before final payment. Then we come back at 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 6 months, and 1 year to address any warranty concerns.
What you get: Punch list completion prior to project closeout. Scheduled follow-up visits to confirm proper operation of systems and performance of materials.

What areas do you serve around Bozeman, Montana?
From our offices in Belgrade, we serve Bozeman, Gallatin County, and Southwest Montana.

We craft a limited number of signature residences each year. If you're planning a residential project and you value disciplined execution, clear communication, and a contractor who doesn't cut corners, we'd be happy to discuss whether we're a fit. Inquire about availability →
How do you keep projects on budget?
We update cost tracking weekly, so you're never surprised by the numbers. If a change in project scope arises or an unforeseen condition is identified, we walk you through the potential cost and schedule impacts before any work proceeds. You decide whether to move forward, adjust the scope, or find an alternative. We don't authorize changes without your approval—period.
How do you handle construction delays?
Weather, permit issues, and material delays happen in construction. When they do, we adjust the schedule and communicate the new timeline. You'll know what caused the delay, how we're mitigating it, and what it means for your occupancy date. We treat your timeline with the same respect we'd want as the client.
How involved do I need to be?
That's up to you. Some clients want weekly site visits and daily photo updates. Others prefer monthly check-ins and trust us to handle the details. Either way, you'll have access to our online project portal, where you can see schedules, budgets, and progress photos in real time. We adapt to your communication preference, and we'll always flag decisions that need your input before moving forward.
What makes Blanton different?
We don't treat accountability like a marketing tagline. It's how we operate. That means realistic budgets from the start, solution-based problem solving, and standing behind our work. Our process is professional and dialed from start to finish.
