Questions about working on Davis Islands.

Do you work on Davis Islands regularly, or is it out of your normal area?
Davis Islands is a regular part of our work. We have completed projects there and know the neighborhood well. It is a short drive from Hyde Park and South Tampa, where we work frequently. Submit an estimate request or give us a call and we will come take a look.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on the scope. Work on older Davis Islands homes sometimes involves matching existing profiles or working carefully around original plaster walls, which we factor into the schedule. A typical project runs 3 to 7 days on-site. Larger scopes might run 1 to 3 weeks.
Can you match the architectural details in a 1920s or 1930s Davis Islands home?
Yes. A lot of the homes on Davis Islands were built in the 1920s through 1940s with specific molding profiles, arched openings, and built-in details that are not available off the shelf. We measure what is there, source or mill matching profiles, and build to fit the existing architecture. The goal is for the new work to look like it was always part of the house.
What's included in a free estimate?
We visit the space, take measurements, and review any original details you want us to match or work around. We follow up with a written scope and price. No obligation. Most Davis Islands estimates take 30 to 45 minutes on-site.

Davis Islands homes were built to last. The interior work should match.

Davis Islands was developed in the 1920s by David P. Davis as one of Tampa's first planned waterfront communities. The homes here reflect that era: Mediterranean Revival facades, Spanish Colonial detailing, arched openings, plaster walls, and original built-in millwork that was standard in quality construction of that period. Newer infill homes and mid-century builds sit alongside the originals, but the character of the island is set by that early architecture.

Working on Davis Islands homes means understanding what is already there and building to match it. Molding profiles, proportions, and finish quality all need to hold up against original work that has stood for close to a hundred years. We take that seriously. We have done fireplace surrounds, trim packages, and built-ins on the island, and we know what these homes call for.

If you are renovating a historic home or adding to a newer one, we will build it to fit the property.
