About Us | McLennan Contracting | Lancaster Custom Design-Build Remodelers

Custom Remodeling in Lancaster

Founded in 2003 as a general contracting company run by Tim and Alison McLennan, we have grown to become and award-winning Design-Build remodeling firm specializing in custom kitchen, bathroom, basement, and whole-home remodeling throughout Lancaster County.

Every project is thoughtfully designed around our clients' lifestyle, combining personalized design, premium craftsmanship, and a proven Design-Build process to create beautiful spaces that feel uniquely theirs.

Why Homeowners Trust McLennan

It’s easy for a remodeling company to make promises about communication, craftsmanship, transparency, and customer experience. We believe those promises should come with proof.

Hear directly from McLennan homeowners about the experience they had working with our team.

From the first conversation through the final walkthrough, these beliefs shape how we approach every remodeling project.

Who We Serve

At McLennan Contracting, we partner with Lancaster homeowners who believe their home should reflect the way they live. Whether you're updating a single room or transforming your entire home, you want more than a beautiful finished product, you want a remodeling experience that's organized, collaborative, and built on trust.

Our clients aren't looking for a one-size-fits-all renovation. They value thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and personalized solutions that enhance their everyday lives. They appreciate open communication, careful planning, and a team that takes the time to understand their goals before construction begins.

Whether we're creating a custom kitchen for gathering with family, designing a spa-inspired bathroom for everyday comfort, finishing a basement for entertaining, or reimagining an entire home, our focus is always the same: delivering exceptional spaces that are tailored to each homeowner's lifestyle.

The Golden Rule:

At McLennan, we treat people the way we’d want to be treated — with respect, honesty, and care.

This simple principle shapes how we work together as a team and how we serve our clients. Whether it’s in a meeting, on a job site, or during construction, our goal is for every interaction to reflect kindness, understanding, and genuine consideration. It’s the foundation of a positive workplace and an exceptional remodeling experience.

Mentorship:

We believe in helping each other grow.

At McLennan, everyone has something to offer and something to learn. We share knowledge, encourage questions, and celebrate progress together. This culture of mentorship strengthens our team and ensures every client benefits from a team that’s always improving, supporting, and learning from one another.

Growth Mindset:

We never stop learning.

Our team approaches every project and challenge with curiosity and a desire to get better. We invest in training, certifications, and professional development — not just because it improves our work, but because personal growth fuels company growth. That drive for improvement helps us deliver smarter designs, smoother processes, and better results for our clients.

Work–Rest Balance:

Healthy people build better homes.

We value the well-being of every team member and know that balance leads to creativity, focus, and joy. By prioritizing time for rest, family, and life outside of work, we create a culture that supports sustainability — for our team and for the clients we serve with energy and care.

Vocational Fit:

We believe the right people in the right roles make all the difference.

When someone’s natural talents align with their work, passion and purpose shine through. We’re intentional about helping our team members find roles that fit their strengths, because a fulfilled team creates exceptional remodeling experiences — marked by enthusiasm, pride, and genuine craftsmanship.

Continuous Improvement:

We’re always evolving.

Kaizen — a Japanese term meaning “continuous improvement” — reflects our belief that there’s always room to grow. Every team member is encouraged to bring ideas, challenge assumptions, and suggest better ways to do things. Step by step, project by project, we refine and improve — never settling for “good enough.”

Our Mission Statement

"McLennan Contracting exists to glorify God as a mentor-level residential remodeling company, serving Lancaster homeowners and our team by creating spaces for rest and connection. We do this by taking a holistic approach to caring for people, so the result of our work is life improvement through home improvement."

McLennan has always been family-focused and grounded in the owners’ Christian faith, which teaches us to treat others as we want to be treated.

This is the guiding principle of our business practices, client relations, and company culture, and it's at the heart of our mission statement.
