ABOUT LEAPLEY

GUIDED BY OUR CORE VALUES, WE BUILD ENVIRONMENTS WHERE PEOPLE THRIVE.

Founded in 1999 by Meredith Leapley, Leapley Construction specializes in building exceptional spaces for clients in the corporate, commercial, and institutional markets.

Within its first year of business, the company earned $1.5 million in revenue and quickly established its expertise in the construction industry. By 2001, Leapley was certified as a Women’s Business
Enterprise by WBENC and chosen by The Coca-Cola Company as the preferred partner for a Construction
Services Master Agreement. In the years that followed, Leapley experienced steady, strategic growth by consistently delivering construction projects for global brands who call Atlanta home and operating with its business and community interests in parallel.  

Today, after nearly three decades of delivering a wide range of construction projects – from occupied renovations, first generation buildouts, multi-floor tenant improvement projects, and full building restacks – we are recognized as one of Atlanta’s Top 10 Largest Commercial Interior Contractors and the #1 Largest Woman Owned Interior Construction Firm.
