About Swank Enterprises

When you work with Swank, you’re family
Founded in 1960 by Dean Swank in Valier, Montana, Swank Enterprises has evolved from a small family contractor into a collective of industry leadership delivering cutting-edge, community-focused projects. We have grown steadily and carefully over the past 60 years to become one of the most capable and trustworthy construction firms in the state, with dedicated offices in Valier, Kalispell, Billings, and Missoula.
First and foremost, we are builders. Builders of homes, workplaces, relationships, and community. We know what it takes to deliver on our commitments while creating positive interactions and win-win relationships with the folks across our jobsites and on our project teams.
Our approach to client satisfaction is informed by our humble beginnings, and we roll up our sleeves and go to work each day in honor of a legacy that’s been built over generations.


What we stand for
Family. Community. Integrity. Legacy. As foundational principles of our company, we understand the weight of these words and we do not take them for granted. Our commitment to our employees, clients, subcontractors, design professionals, and project partners extends beyond a single building or structure and includes the humanity, the environment, and the future that we all share.
We tell the truth, treat people with respect, and we are loyal. We take pride in the repeat business we’ve consistently earned over more than half a century, and the scores of long-time employees who have with spent the majority, or entirety, of their careers with Swank.
"There are several construction teams in the region that are qualified to perform, but I do not think you will find one that can do a better job."
