Design or build from your plans
Design-to-build with our team, or build straight from your architect's drawings. Either way, you approve a full set before we order a single board.

New Construction
New construction, start to keys.
Building from scratch is the dream — until the dream becomes a contractor who goes dark and a number that keeps climbing. Meridian draws the whole house and prices every line before a shovel moves. Fixed schedule, fixed price, built in the open.

The Scope
What's included.
Everything it takes to go from a bare lot to a home you live in — handled by one crew, agreed in writing before we begin.
Site & foundation
Lot prep, grading, utilities, and a foundation poured to the drawings. The dirty, invisible work that decides whether everything above it holds.
Framing to finish, one crew
The same Meridian crew carries your house from rough framing through trim, paint, and final fixtures — no hand-offs, no finger-pointing.
Fixed-price contract
Every line priced up front and locked. The number you sign is the number you pay — change orders only when you ask for the change.
Weekly updates & open job site
A written update every week and a site you're welcome to walk. You always know what's done, what's next, and where the schedule stands.
Final walkthrough + warranty
We walk the finished home together, clear the punch list to zero, and hand you the keys with a written warranty behind every system.

Method
From lot to keys, in sequence.
The whole build drawn, dated, and agreed before we start — so the only surprises are the good ones.

In Their Words
"We'd heard every horror story about building from scratch. Meridian gave us a real number and a real calendar on day one — and hit both. We moved in on the month they promised."
