ADU Construction in Missoula, MT
Montana Builders provides professional ADU construction, garage apartment construction, backyard cottage building, and mother-in-law suite construction in Missoula, MT and throughout Western Montana.
An accessory dwelling unit, often called an ADU, is a secondary living space built on the same property as an existing home. ADUs can be detached backyard homes, garage apartments, guest houses, attached additions, basement apartments, or private living spaces for family, rental income, or long-term property value.
As an experienced general contractor in Missoula, Montana Builders helps homeowners plan and build functional, efficient, and well-designed ADUs that fit their property, lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals.
Whether you want to build a garage with living quarters, a backyard guest house, a mother-in-law suite, a rental unit, or a small detached home on your property, we can help guide the construction process from planning through completion.

ADU Construction for Family, Rental Income, and Long-Term Value
ADUs are becoming one of the most practical ways for homeowners in Missoula and Western Montana to add usable living space without selling, moving, or building an entirely new primary home.
Many homeowners use ADUs for aging parents, adult children, guest space, long-term rentals, private offices, short-term rental opportunities, or multi-generational living.
A well-built ADU can add flexibility, improve property function, create potential income, and increase long-term value when designed and constructed properly.
At Montana Builders, we focus on practical planning, clear communication, quality construction, and efficient project management so homeowners can make informed decisions before investing in an ADU project.
