Terms and Conditions

These terms apply to the use of this website. They are not a construction contract. Any work we carry out is governed by a separate written agreement, and where that agreement and this page disagree, the agreement governs.

Cost figures are estimates, not quotes

Every price range and calculator result on this site is a planning estimate. The calculators use published cost bands and general assumptions about a typical build, and they cannot see your ground, your access, your utilities or your drawings. A real price comes from a site visit and a written scope.

Nothing on this site is an offer, and no result produced by a calculator is capable of being accepted as one.

Code and permit information

This site publishes building code figures, permit requirements and jurisdiction information, with links to the authorities that publish them. That material is included because it is useful and because most competing sites get it wrong. It is still general information.

Codes are amended, fee schedules reset each fiscal year, and zoning changes. Bozeman replaced its entire development code effective 1 February 2026, which is a good illustration of how quickly published guidance ages. Confirm anything you intend to rely on with the authority that administers it, and treat nothing here as a code determination for your parcel.

Photographs

Photographs on this site are stock images used to illustrate construction stages and building types. They are not photographs of projects built by this business. Where our own project photographs are published, they will be identified as such.

External links

We link to city, county, state and industry sources so you can check what we have written. We do not control those sites, we are not responsible for their content, and a link is not an endorsement.

Using the content

The text, layout and design of this site belong to the business. You are welcome to read it, print it and quote it with attribution. Republishing substantial parts of it as your own content is not permitted.

Availability

We try to keep the site accurate and available, and we cannot promise either without interruption. Content may be updated or removed without notice, which is usually a sign that something in the underlying code or fee schedule changed.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of the State of Montana.
