Chapter 11 – Filing Summary
_____________________________________________
Middle District of Florida • March 9, 2026
Smith Custom Home Corporation, a Tampa, Florida-based custom single-family home construction firm doing business as Maverick Design & Construction, filed for chapter 11 protection on March 9, 2026, in the Middle District of Florida. The company elected to file under Subchapter V, a specialized proceeding designed for small business debtors to restructure debt.
As of the 2026 filing, the corporation operates from its principal place of business in Tampa under the leadership of President Marcus Smith. The firm recently adopted the Maverick Design & Construction brand in late 2025 and maintains an active Florida Certified General Contractor license. Court documents indicate the company manages a small core team of approximately 5 to 15 employees.
Historically, the company has marketed over 25 years of experience in the design-build sector for custom homes and accessory dwelling units. While the firm previously operated primarily as Smith Custom Home Corporation, it faced a construction lien foreclosure action in late 2023 prior to its 2026 restructuring effort.
