Looking for custom homes in Tampa? LRG Contractors Group is a licensed Florida general contractor serving Tampa and the surrounding greater Tampa — from Hyde Park, South Tampa, Davis Islands and beyond. Ground-up custom homes and teardown rebuilds, designed and built to Florida code.
Building a custom home in Tampa Bay is the ultimate project — and the one with the most ways to go wrong. Between flood-zone and elevation requirements, wind-load engineering, the Florida Building Code, and the sheer coordination of a ground-up build, it demands a builder who manages the whole thing as one disciplined process.
For Tampa specifically, it comes down to local realities: Tampa's range — from protected 1920s Hyde Park and Seminole Heights bungalows to flood-exposed South Tampa and Davis Islands waterfront — means the right kitchen or bath remodel depends entirely on the home's era, neighborhood, and flood zone. Tampa runs its own building department under the Florida Building Code. Bayfront South Tampa and Davis Islands homes sit in FEMA flood zones and the wind-borne-debris region, where substantial-improvement and elevation rules can apply; newer subdivisions add HOA review. We map those rules before drawings start. We design and permit your custom homes around exactly those conditions.

Custom Homes cost
Typical Tampa Bay ranges for construction cost (land separate), not a quote. Site complexity, flood-zone elevation, finish level, and design drive the number. We develop a detailed fixed-scope budget through the design phase.
Timeline
Custom homes typically run 10–18 months from design through completion, depending on size, site, and flood-zone requirements.
