For more than 30 years, we’ve made a positive difference in people’s lives and projects by combining high-quality construction with exceptional service. Founded in 1992, Scott Reid has grown from a team of three into one of the largest privately owned commercial general contractors in Texas, with offices in Dallas and Houston and projects across the U.S. While the scale of our work has expanded, our principles have remained the same. We’re built on relationships, focused on results, and committed to doing things the right way. Today, our ownership team stays actively involved in the day-to-day work, providing hands-on leadership and setting the tone for how we show up for our clients, partners, and teams. That personal investment continues to shape who we are and why so many of our clients choose to build with us again and again.
At Scott Reid, we don’t just construct buildings. We create opportunities, relationships, and careers that last. For over 30 years, we’ve believed that what matters most in this business isn’t just what we build, it’s who we build it with.
