The Versailles Standard
A Turnkey Build at the Lake Requires a General Contractor Who Has Built Dozens of Them Here.
Versailles is our hometown — the Morgan County seat where our family has built since 1958. Lake Ozarks Remodeling Co was established here in 1996 by our owner, who has personally led every project since. We've built more projects for more Versailles neighbors than any contractor in the region across 65+ years of family operation. New construction at the Lake of the Ozarks is a different project than new construction anywhere else in Missouri. Hillside lot engineering, Ameren SMO setback coordination, county permit requirements, lake-grade structural design, and the specific material and systems choices that perform in a lake environment — these are disciplines that take years to develop. We have built dozens of new homes and commercial structures at the Lake and we bring that experience to every project. We design, permit, engineer, and build — one team, one contract, one point of accountability.
- Custom home design and build
- Permitting and engineering managed
- Lake-grade construction expertise
- Single fixed-price contract
- White-glove move-in included

Local Expertise
Versailles Is Home — and We Work Here Like Every Neighbor Is Watching, Because They Are.
Our headquarters is at 301 Fairground Rd in Versailles — the Morgan County seat — and this is where our family has lived, worked, and built since 1958. Our owner, Michael McGee, has worked the Lake personally since 1996. We know every street, every building inspector, every supplier, and a substantial portion of the neighborhood. When you hire us for a Versailles project, your project manager is 5 minutes away at all times. Our crews don't carry a drive premium in your bid. And our reputation in Versailles is built on four generations of neighbors recommending us to neighbors — which creates a standard of accountability that no out-of-town or out-of-state contractor will ever face. Hillside lots require retaining wall systems, soil engineering, and foundation designs that suburban builders don't commonly encounter. Shoreline proximity triggers Ameren SMO review and setback compliance. Rural lake properties involve well and septic coordination, LP gas system design, and county building authority jurisdictions. Every aspect of finish selection — from siding materials to roofing to window specifications — needs to account for lake-level humidity, UV exposure, and long vacancy periods. We build for this environment because we live and work in it.

FAQ
Common Questions, Honest Answers
How long does new home construction take at the Lake of the Ozarks?
New home construction at the Lake typically runs 10–18 months from design completion through final walk-through, depending on size, finish level, and permitting complexity. Lake-area county permitting can take 2–4 months. We begin the permitting process early and use that time to finalize design decisions so construction starts without delay.
What does a turnkey new construction home cost at the Lake of the Ozarks?
Quality lake home construction typically ranges from $250 to $450+ per square foot depending on finish level, site complexity, and the degree of custom work involved. We provide a detailed fixed-price construction contract after design is complete — you know the full cost before you commit to construction. We don't use open-ended cost-plus arrangements.
Do you help with lot selection and site assessment before purchase?
Yes — we offer pre-purchase site consultations for lots under consideration. We assess soil conditions, setback constraints, Ameren SMO implications, utility access, and construction feasibility before you close. This has saved clients from purchasing lots where their intended project wasn't feasible, and helped others negotiate price based on legitimate site constraints.
What's the real advantage of hiring a contractor based in Versailles for a Versailles project?
Your project manager is 5 minutes away. Material deliveries are faster. There's no travel markup embedded in your bid. And we've been accountable to this community for 25+ years — our neighbors can find us, talk to us, and reference our past work in ways that out-of-town contractors will never face. In Versailles, our reputation is on the line on every project in a way that matters to us personally.
Do you work on historic and older homes in Versailles?
Absolutely — many Versailles properties include homes dating back 60–100+ years, and updating these homes while preserving their character is one of our genuine specialties. We assess existing structural and mechanical conditions thoroughly before we commit to scope, we're honest about what's behind the walls before budgets are finalized, and we know the Morgan County building code requirements for work on older residential structures.
