Who we are
Lariat Builders is a Reno-based custom home builder. We take on a small number of projects a year so we can give each one the attention it deserves — from the first sketch to the day you turn the key. Every home is different. Our standard for how it should be built is not.
The details
A stair. A joint. A shadow line. The homes we're proud of aren't the result of one big idea. They're the result of a thousand small ones, each answered with care.
Selected work
01 — Modern Mountain
Reno, Nevada
A modern mountain home in walnut, bronze, and glass — with shed rooflines that catch the Sierra light and a stair that reads more like a sculpture.

02 — Contemporary
Reno, Nevada
Operable glass walls that open the great room to the yard, a backlit library, a private theater, and a hideaway office. Built for how a family actually lives.

03 — Modern Farmhouse
Reno, Nevada
A modern farmhouse in board-and-batten and stone, with a soaring great room, chef's kitchen, and a courtyard built for slow evenings.

How we work
01
Understanding what you want the home to do, before we ever talk about what it will look like.
02
Working alongside your architect to make sure the drawings match the reality of how we build.
03
A jobsite run with the same care as the finished product. Clean, quiet, and always on plan.
