Terry Draper has been building custom homes in the greater Grand Lake area for over 20 years. As a native to the Northeast Oklahoma communities he serves, Terry’s passion for bringing blueprints to life began with the art of wood framing and the craftsman’s trade of trim carpentry. Experience quickly led Terry to realize his talent for managing all aspects of the home building process, but it’s his relentless attention to detail and high priority placed on relationships that has shaped the Draper Construction name.
Today, Terry continues his hands on approach with each new project and enjoys the design and construction challenges unique to luxury custom homes. His commitment to sustainable communities and client value remain as the company’s foundational vision.
Draper Construction specializes in luxury custom homes, serving the greater Grand Lake area by partnering with clients to create value and reflect their lifestyle. A distinctive Draper built home brings together the craftsman’s skill and the owner’s imagination, personalizing the home building experience. Your family. Our community. It’s why Draper Construction has been committed for over 20 years to "Building Above Expectations".
Building Above Expectations is a team based culture at Draper Construction. Nothing exemplifies this more than Terry’s working relationship with the company’s operations director, Levi Gillen.
Levi has been an engineer in the construction industry for more than 15 years and understands the importance of design, safety, and communication as tools for a successful home build that ultimately represents value for the client. His knowledge and innovation compliments the company’s overall efforts to construct a lifestyle that reflects the home owner’s personality and experiences. Together, Terry and Levi are dedicated to providing professional home building services based on the principles of accountability and continuous improvement.
We have used Draper Construction on several remodeling projects including a major makeover of our new lake home. We have always found Terry and his crew members to be honest, respectful, timely and very accomplished in their trade. They show up when they say they will and stay at it until the job is finished. This is VERY rare especially in the Grand Lake area. We would and have recommended him to others without reservation!

Terry was great to work with and very professional. He was always willing to listen to our ideas and would be willing to work with us on any changes that we suggested. He is very particular about the work that is done and makes sure everything is of the highest quality. I would recommend Terry to anyone who was looking to custom build a new house.

Being recently retired and on a tight budget Terry worked with us where ever possible to hold down cost without compromising quality. He listened to what WE WANTED and made recommendations where needed. Any concerns or issues that came up during construction or after move in were handled promptly without any hesitation. Have been in our new home little over a month now and really enjoying it. Also shout out to electrician Dale Cody for getting us in touch with Draper Construction.
