Lyon Construction+Design is Kansas City's full-service remodeling and construction company, noted for its specialized expertise in restoring and updating beautiful older homes. "We operate from a view that people are healthier when they connect to the space around them." -- Clay Lyon

Transforming life by transforming living spaces. It's what we do. Designing and creating beautiful kitchens, additions, bathrooms, master suites, and more. Working in greater Kansas City and the surrounding area -- remodeling, construction, design-build, and small projects too!

The company's capabilities include major and minor remodeling projects, design assistance, and a design-build approach to remodeling and construction. Lyon also performs new-home construction and "handyman" home repairs, energy audits, and routine home maintenance provided through the company's small projects division, Lyon Cub.

 

Clay Lyon founded the company in 2002 after he and his wife, Robin, discovered a need for what they described as an "innovative, conscientious, customer service-based remodeling contractor." The company culture created by the business and life partners is built upon respect for clients and their sacred space, integrity of design and workmanship, and innovation. "Our challenge in renovating a home is to add comfort for the client, not take it away," says Lyon. "I like to see how efficiently we can reach the client's objective and how beautiful the end result can be."

Lyon Construction+Design is well-known and respected in the industry. In its young history, it has garnered numerous prestigious awards, including Kansas City Homes & Gardens magazine Remodel of the Year Awards each year since 2004; engaged actively in its industry; and received praise from clients.
