Building Idaho's Future

At Mode Homes, we’re on a mission to do more than build — we’re working to bring more housing to the Boise area, one project at a time. That means more families owning their own home. More homeowners adding value to their property. More missing middle housing in neighborhoods that need it.

We believe in the American Dream. And we think more people in Idaho deserve a shot at it.

Who We Are

Mode Homes is a Boise-based builder specializing in ADUs, build-on-your-lot homes, and infill development across the Treasure Valley. We handle everything — design, permitting, site work, and construction — so you don’t have to coordinate a dozen different people to get it done.

We’re owner-operated, locally rooted, and built around one idea: that building a home should be clear, organized, and worth every dollar you put into it.

Our Mission

More homes. More ownership. More opportunity for Idaho families. We build custom homes and ADUs that create real, lasting value — for the people who live in them and the communities they're part of.

Our Vision

An Idaho where every homeowner can easily add housing to their property, increasing housing supply, generating wealth for families, and strengthening communities across Southern Idaho.

Our Values

Transparency in every transaction. Excellence in every design. Reliability in every deadline. We believe in building relationships as strong as the structures we create.

Why Choose Mode Homes

We’re Personally Involved in Every Project

When we commit to a project, we take it personally. We care deeply about our clients, their homes, and the responsibility that comes with being trusted to build something meaningful.

No Surprises

Most construction headaches start the same way — not enough planning upfront. We do the hard work before we break ground. Your scope, budget, and timeline are locked in before a single shovel hits the dirt.

Straight Talk on Budget

We don't lowball estimates to win your business and figure it out later. You'll know what things cost early, why they cost that, and where there's room to adjust. No bait and switch. No surprise invoices.

Good Design Shouldn't Break the Budget

A beautiful home and a smart investment aren't mutually exclusive. We help you make design decisions that look and feel great — without losing sight of what it costs to build and what it'll be worth when it's done.

You'll Always Know Where Things Stand

Building a home involves a lot of moving parts. We keep them organized so you don't have to. Clear schedules, regular updates, and full project visibility through Buildertrend — you'll never have to chase us down for an answer.

We Build it Like It's Our Own

We're a family of four with two young kids. We know what it means to put everything into a home — because we've done it too. That's the perspective we bring to every project.

Our reputation is built on follow-through and honesty. We treat every build the way we’d want our own home treated. That’s not a tagline — it’s just how we operate.

Next Step

If our approach feels like the right fit, the next step is a simple conversation to learn more about your project.
