Platypus brings design, engineering, and construction together for Utah County homeowners and commercial property owners who want one accountable team from planning through buildout.

Utah County Construction With Design, Engineering, and Build Under One Roof

Construction projects in Utah County move better when the people planning the work understand what it takes to build it. Platypus Design and Construction helps owners avoid the common disconnect between designers, engineers, and contractors by keeping those disciplines coordinated from the start.

Our team supports residential and commercial projects across the county, including custom homes, accessory dwelling units, additions, tenant improvements, concrete, foundations, site work, and planning-heavy remodels.

Why Utah County Owners Work With Platypus

  • One accountable team coordinating design, engineering, estimating, and construction.
  • Early constructability review before budget and schedule problems get expensive.
  • Practical guidance around scope, phasing, permits, site conditions, and finish decisions.
  • Residential and commercial experience for projects that need more than a single trade.

A Local Starting Point for Serious Projects

Whether you are planning a new home in Utah County, adding an ADU, expanding your existing house, preparing a commercial space, or getting concrete and foundation work priced correctly, the first step is a focused conversation about goals, constraints, site conditions, and timing.

What Our Clients Say

Real Projects. Real People.
Real Results.

We let our work — and our clients — speak for us. Here's what homeowners and business owners have to say about working with Platypus Design & Construction.

"I am more than satisfied with the excellent work Platypus Design and Construction recently did for us. After a windstorm blew down a portion of our vinyl fence, he not only repaired the fence but saw what needed to be done to secure it so it would withstand future storms. He performed the work quickly, efficiently, and skillfully. The result was excellent and the cost was reasonable. We also appreciate the clarity and friendliness of all his communications and interactions with us. Overall, he did a superb job, even exceeding our expectations."

"McKay and his team have done multiple TI buildout projects for me and my Scenthound locations. They have been great to work with through everything to help me get a mix of great pricing, service, and overall product delivery. They are honest with their work and will ensure they take care of you as their client. Further, being able to use them for both design drawing, engineering, and the project buildout and management has saved me tens of thousands of dollars and weeks of time during my buildouts to have it all done with them in house. Platypus will continue to be my go-to for all my future commercial construction needs."
Spencer S. Commercial Build-Out
"We had an outstanding experience working with McKay Harper and Platypus Construction on a garage addition and a custom pergola over our patio. From the beginning, McKay demonstrated a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail - he was able to match the existing architecture of our home seamlessly, to the point that the addition looks like it has always been there. It was a unique design challenge, and McKay used thoughtful engineering to create a beautiful freestanding structure that feels both solid and elegant. His pricing was very fair, and we would give McKay and Platypus Construction our highest recommendation and would absolutely work with him again."
