Commercial design and construction services
Dow Smith Company is a full-service general contractor and design-builder that specializes in new construction, renovation and tenant improvement projects. Our team is transparent—we believe in honesty, preparedness and accountability. We are “open book” on costs and we rely upon our decades of experience to guide you through the often-complicated design and construction process. We pledge to provide you with clear and specific plans to help you build the facility you need to grow your own business.
We have designed and built many commercial projects throughout Middle Tennessee including:
• retail stores

• financial institutions
• restaurants
• business parks

“What defines you as a business is how you handle problems. Dow goes above and beyond, even after you move in and the project is finished. Time goes by, but if an issue arises, they always take care of it. Every time I call, if Joey doesn’t pick up, I get called back in two minutes.””
When designing and building a church, the process is far more than just creating a functional space. It’s about crafting a place of worship, community, and ministry that reflects the heart and vision of your congregation. But with so many moving parts—budgets, timelines, stakeholder input, and ministry needs—it’s easy for the process to feel overwhelming. That’s why we recommend starting with a Three-Day Design Charrette at Dow Smith Company. This intensive, collaborative event brings all your key stakeholders together to align on vision, goals, and practical steps before the design and construction process begins. You’re building a legacy. Let’s make it a great one.
