Meet Steve Savory
Owner & Master Carpenter
At the center of Leader Construction Company LLC is owner Steve Savory, a seasoned general contractor and master builder who brings over 52 years of hands-on industry experience to every project. Steve learned the construction trade from the ground up, starting his career as a skilled carpenter before transitioning into general contracting. Along with his father, Bill, Steve co-founded the family-owned company over five decades ago on a foundation of honest communication, meticulous craftsmanship, and long-term client trust. Today, Steve leads the business as a primary home remodeling contractor serving commercial and residential clients across the St. Louis region.
Steve’s technical expertise spans the full scope of residential remodeling, structural additions, and custom home construction. Having spent more than half a century in the trade, he possesses an intuitive understanding of structural framing, load-bearing reconfigurations, custom carpentry, and complex room expansions. Steve approaches every job site with a focus on structural integrity and spatial efficiency, ensuring that every project—whether an extensive whole-home remodel or a seamless room addition—is built to stand the test of time while incorporating modern construction technologies.
Over 50 Years of St. Louis Building Legacy, Innovation, and Custom Construction
Since its founding, Leader Construction Company LLC has operated as a premier commercial and residential builder in the St. Louis community. Over 50 years after establishing the company alongside his father, Steve continues to uphold the family mission while actively evolving the business. Steve ensures the team stays at the forefront of modern industry trends, updated building codes, and advanced construction materials, delivering contemporary standards of excellence without sacrificing traditional, trade-tested building practices.
Steve has built the company’s reputation around personal accountability, collaborative problem-solving, and relationship building. From initial project design and material selection to permitting compliance and on-site construction oversight, Steve works closely with clients to deliver tailored solutions for every space. A prime reflection of his expertise and passion for design is his recent work helping his daughter Nikki design and build her brand-new home—a project that combined his decades of custom construction experience with personal family dedication.
Deeply Rooted in Family Values and Community Relationships
At his core, Steve is a dedicated family man whose personal life and career are deeply intertwined with family heritage. Building the company alongside his father laid the foundation for his strong work ethic, and today, Steve cherishes the time he spends outside of work with his daughter Nikki and his granddaughter. For Steve, passing down the values of hard work, integrity, and pride in craftsmanship to the next generation is the ultimate rewarding achievement.
Steve approaches every client’s property with the same care, respect, and high standards that he applies when building for his own family. His straightforward, approachable leadership style and dedication to doing the job right the first time have earned Leader Construction Company the long-term trust of homeowners, commercial clients, and industry peers throughout St. Louis.
