About Us
Chanen Construction was founded in 1955 in Phoenix, Arizona—when the population was a whopping 65,414.
Now, 69 years and 1 million more people later, Chanen remains one of the original Arizona builders with a reputation for ambitious projects and investing in the community.
A lot has changed over the years, but our community focus remains. Chanen has supported more than 1,000 non profits and has given more than $3M to causes we care about.
In addition, we offer a Chanen Student Scholarship program at Midwestern University— supporting our goal to improve access to higher education and empower minority communities.
Seven decades in and we are now approaching a new era of growth.
In 2023, Chanen was acquired by Dick Anderson Construction, a Montana-based company that shares our same core values of working hard, supporting our communities, and “being part of the solution.”
THE DAC STORY
Founded in 1975, Dick Anderson Construction has grown to become one of the most respected general contractor/construction management firms in the region. For five decades, we’ve built strong relationships with clients in Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, and across the Northwest. Now, we’re proud to expand south with the acquisition of Chanen Construction. Like Chanen, DAC is a homegrown business with a humble beginning; we started as a roofing company committed to providing the highest quality work.
We delivered on that promise again and again, growing from one office to now having offices in Helena, Billings, Bozeman, Great Falls, and Missoula, Montana; Sheridan and Jackson, Wyoming; and Phoenix, Arizona, where our employees live and enjoy the quality of life that each community provides.
We excel in all aspects of contracting and construction management, with a range of project types — from large-scale renewable energy facilities to higher education to heavy civil.
OUR WAY
From budgets, to planning, to nails-and-lumber construction, DAC will be there with the advice and expertise to help clear your objectives. Dealing with a tight schedule? We’ll assemble the entire project team (owners, architects, subcontractors and suppliers) into one, cohesive unit that will have the logistics humming.
PRE-CONSTRUCTION
We’ll collaborate to determine how to best achieve your goals, at the lowest overall cost. Realistic budgeting and scheduling help to keep things on the right track, while our vast industry experience means we know how to do more with less.

As we near the project’s completion, a final set of processes begins. We review our Punch List to ensure all listed work is completed to the owner’s satisfaction.
All systems are tested, and all closeout documents including as-built drawings, operation manuals, and product and labor warranties—are handed over. Final payments and releases are issued.
