Commercial Construction
Whitefish’s tourism economy, driven by Whitefish Mountain Resort (500,000 annual visitors) and Whitefish Lake, fuels demand for commercial projects like hotels, restaurants, and retail spaces. We build and renovate commercial properties, from Central Avenue’s historic storefronts to new developments near the Whitefish Depot. Recent projects, like the $18 million Whitefish Riverfront redevelopment (2023–2025), highlight Whitefish’s commercial growth. Our commercial construction services deliver modern, energy-efficient spaces compliant with local regulations. Explore our commercial renovation guide or energy-efficient construction post.
Serving Whitefish’s Unique Needs
Whitefish’s high elevation (3,028 feet) and extreme climate, with heavy snow and sub-zero winters, require construction that prioritizes insulation, snow load capacity, and durability. The Downtown Historic District, with over 200 structures from the 1890s railroad era, demands adherence to preservation standards, which our team navigates using period-appropriate materials like reclaimed timber or custom stonework. In upscale areas like Iron Horse and Big Mountain, we focus on luxury designs with smart-home technology, radiant heating, and solar-ready roofs, aligning with Whitefish’s affluent, eco-conscious community. The city’s 2024 housing boom, with 600 new residential units planned, and its tourism-driven economy, boosted by events like the Whitefish Winter Carnival, underscore the need for quality construction. We comply with Montana’s 5% retainage laws and Whitefish’s building codes, ensuring transparent, high-quality projects across neighborhoods from Lakeshore to the Whitefish River.
