Looking for outdoor living in St. Petersburg? LRG Contractors Group is a licensed Florida general contractor serving St. Petersburg and the surrounding Pinellas County — from Historic Old Northeast, Kenwood, Downtown / Central Avenue and beyond. Lanais, pool decks, outdoor kitchens, and pergolas that extend your living space outside.
Florida living happens outside, and a well-built outdoor space is one of the highest-enjoyment, strong-return investments a Tampa Bay homeowner can make. Done right, a lanai or screened patio becomes a true extension of the house rather than a neglected backyard.
For St. Petersburg specifically, it comes down to local realities: St. Pete's split between protected 1920s historic bungalows and low-lying waterfront blocks means the right remodel in Old Northeast is the wrong one in Shore Acres — we scope to the home's era and its flood exposure, not a template. St. Petersburg runs its own building department under the Florida Building Code; bungalow districts add historic-character considerations, and waterfront blocks like Shore Acres sit in FEMA flood zones where substantial-improvement and elevation rules can apply. We design to those rules from day one. We design and permit your outdoor living around exactly those conditions.
