Complex custom homes — vaulted great rooms, long-span beams, complicated roofs — framed by crews who like the hard ones.
In a town like Hamilton, builders and homeowners talk. We treat every Ravalli County project as the audition for the next three. Edge Enterprise LLC serves Hamilton with custom home framing built on 25+ years of experience and a portfolio that includes some of the region's largest multi-family frames.
From our Long Prairie, MN headquarters, Hamilton is about 19 hr 30 min away — close enough for our crews to mobilize quickly and staff the job for its full duration. Montana projects run under the state-adopted IBC/IRC; in mountain-zone jurisdictions, site-specific snow loads and seismic detailing are a fact of life we build for. Typical design values for the Hamilton area — ground snow load around 50–100+ psf (site-specific in mountain zones), design wind speeds of 105–115 mph; seismic detailing applies in western MT, and frost depths near 48–72 in. — are baked into how we detail and build here; final values are always confirmed with the local building official.
Hips, valleys, dormers, curved and vaulted ceilings — the roofs production framers turn down are the ones our crews enjoy.
Glulam, PSL, and steel carrying beams set right, with the temporary shoring and sequencing thought through before the crane shows up.
Custom homes come with custom details. We read the full set, flag conflicts early, and build what the architect drew — not an approximation of it.
Yes — Edge Enterprise frames architect-designed custom homes in Hamilton and throughout Ravalli County, working with custom builders and directly with owners' GCs.
That's the work we like best. Vaulted ceilings, intersecting hips and valleys, dormers, and exposed structure are exactly where an experienced framing crew earns its keep.
For a typical custom home, 6–10 weeks of lead time lets us hold a crew slot for you. Earlier is better on lake homes and mountain builds where the season compresses everything.
Yes — we'd rather ask the engineer a question before the wall goes up than after. RFIs, shop-drawing review, and site visits with your design team are part of the service.
