Design-Build Contractor St. Louis Clients Trust at Lake of the Ozarks

Your Lake of the Ozarks project deserves a team on the ground.

St. Louis homeowners choose Lake of the Ozarks for weekend retreats, family gatherings, long-term getaways, and custom waterfront living. TXR Architects + Constructors helps bring those plans to life through architect-led design-build services tailored to your property, lifestyle, and long-term goals.

Tom Roof, AIA, leads the architectural design, while Rocky Corpe manages construction and coordinates the building process. From the first conversation through the final walkthrough, TXR provides one team, one contract, and complete accountability for your project.

From St. Louis to the Lake, Your Vision Has a Local Partner

Lake of the Ozarks is approximately 160 miles from St. Louis, making it accessible for weekend visits while offering a distinct setting for custom homes, renovations, and commercial development.

Building a home several hours from your primary residence requires more than a set of architectural plans. It requires a local team that understands the terrain, shoreline conditions, permitting process, subcontractor network, and construction expectations of the Lake of the Ozarks region.

TXR provides that local presence. Our team manages the details at the lake while keeping you connected from St. Louis. You can review designs, discuss selections, monitor progress, and make informed decisions with direct access to the people responsible for your project.
