A Modern Approach to
Custom Homebuilding
in West Virginia

Seven Rivers Design + Build

At Seven Rivers Design + Build, we redefine the homebuilding experience by seamlessly integrating technology, manufacturing, and design to create a more efficient, transparent, and high-quality process.

For nearly two decades, Seven Rivers has studied where traditional homebuilding goes wrong — miscommunication, weather delays, and spiraling budgets. By integrating project management technology, precision offsite manufacturing, and in-house design, we've built a process that's faster, more transparent, and more personal. Serving Greenbrier County and the greater West Virginia region, we handle every detail so you don't have to.

Here's How We Do It

Technology:

A Smarter Way to Build

Construction is complex, with countless moving parts. To keep projects on track, Seven Rivers uses a client-centered project management system that revolutionizes the way information is shared.

This platform tracks every aspect of a homebuilding project in real-time, allowing clients to:
• Access daily logs & progress updates
• View photos, schedules, and cost updates
• Select finish materials (tile, paint, appliances, etc.) via an online portal
‍
By streamlining communication, this system ensures that projects stay on schedule, within budget, and aligned with clients' expectations. You always know where your project stands — no surprises, no chasing anyone down for answers.

Manufacturing:

Outsmarting the Weather

In homebuilding, weather is the ultimate wildcard—rain turns job sites into mud pits, snow brings work to a standstill, and extreme heat slows down crews. Traditional construction is at the mercy of the elements, but Seven Rivers finds a way to outmaneuver Mother Nature.

By utilizing offsite manufacturing, Seven Rivers eliminates weather-related setbacks. Precision-built panels—complete with framing, windows, and siding—are constructed indoors and assembled quickly on-site. This process:
‍
• Reduces delays caused by rain, snow, and extreme temperatures
• Ensures higher precision in construction
• Creates a more efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable building process
‍
For you, that means fewer delays and a move-in date you can actually count on.

Design: The Piece

That Brings it All Together

Most builders hand you off to a separate architect, which means extra cost, miscommunication, and decisions made without the full picture. At Seven Rivers, design and construction live under the same roof. Lead Designer Tia Bouman works alongside the build team from day one, so your design choices are always grounded in what's actually buildable and what it'll actually cost.

Community: A Family That

Works Together, Grows Together

As Seven Rivers continues to grow, so does its sense of family—not just within Andrew and Tia’s partnership, but across the entire team.

At Seven Rivers Design + Build, homebuilding isn’t just about construction—it’s about people. Just like a well-built home starts with a strong foundation, a great business is built on trust, passion, and shared success.

“Our reputation isn’t just based on the quality of our homes, but on the trust we build with clients, employees, and trade partners. If employees and partners aren’t growing alongside the business, something isn’t right.”

John Meyer, Director of Operations.

Featured Projects

Design & Build

Headwaters Park

The combination of Hebel (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) walls, an exposed structural steel roof system, and bespoke craftsmanship makes for a very interesting building.

Design & Build

Davis Stuart Residence

One of the standout features of the Davis–Stuart Residence is the 20-foot accordion door that opens the living room directly onto a stone patio. Designed and built by Seven Rivers Design + Build, this dramatic opening dissolves the boundary between interior and exterior spaces, creating a unified indoor–outdoor living experience ideal for entertaining, relaxing, and connecting with nature.

Design & Build

Austin Street Build

The defining feature of the Austin St. Build is the use of natural plaster walls throughout the interior. Plaster brings a quiet richness—subtle texture, visual depth, and a sense of solidity that makes the home feel both timeless and grounded. This material choice reinforces Seven Rivers Design + Build’s focus on craftsmanship and tactile, human-centered design.

Design & Build

Discovery Junction

The main pavilion, with a raised stage in the center and a wing on either side, is a post and beam structure built using local hemlock. The timber framing, including the trusses, was done in our shop and transported to the site for final assembly.

Design & Build

Camp Waldo Pavilion

We used a traditional Japanese wood preservation technique called Shou Sugi Ban on the post and beam structure of this building.

Design & Build

Headwaters Prefab Cabins

The Headwaters Prefab Cabins mark an important milestone for Seven Rivers Design + Build—our first fully prefabricated build following the commissioning of new European panelization equipment in Fall 2024.
