South Tampa, on the Interbay Peninsula
South Tampa is the part of Tampa on the Interbay Peninsula, running from Kennedy Boulevard south to MacDill Air Force Base, with Tampa Bay on the west and Hillsborough Bay on the east. Dale Mabry, Gandy Boulevard, West Shore, Bayshore and Bay to Bay are the roads that tie it together.
The housing is some of the oldest in the area. Hyde Park dates to the 1880s and is full of historic homes and bungalows. Palma Ceia is known for its brick streets and Havana-origin street names. Davis Islands was built in the 1920s from mud dredged out of Tampa Bay. Along Bayshore Boulevard, a 4.5-mile waterfront road on Hillsborough Bay, condo towers sit beside older homes.
That shapes the work: older wood doors and plaster walls inside, bayfront humidity and salt air on exterior hardware, and association rules in the towers. Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, so storm prep and post-storm repairs come up every year.
Jobs South Tampa homes call about
Drywall and plaster patches
Older Hyde Park and Palma Ceia homes can have plaster walls rather than drywall. We patch cracks and holes and match texture. Homes built before 1978 should have old texture and paint tested before anyone sands. Drywall patches get a free estimate. See drywall repair.
Sticking doors and sliders
Humidity swells wood doors in older South Tampa homes, and bayfront sliders drag on worn rollers and salty tracks. We plane, shim, realign strikes and service tracks. Call or text for an instant estimate. See door repair.
TV mounting, fans and fixtures
For a covered lanai, a damp-rated fan works; for an open balcony where rain or spray can reach, choose a wet-rated fan. Expect low prices and a free estimate. See TV mounting and ceiling fan installation.
Fences and gates
New wood or vinyl runs, sagging gates, leaning posts and replaced pickets. Fence work is quoted after a free estimate. See fence installation and fence repairs and maintenance.
Tile and grout
Cracked floor tiles, shower regrouting and re-caulking, and backsplashes in kitchens and baths. Call or text for an instant estimate. See tile installation.
After storms: leak patch and tarping
After a storm we handle leak patch and tarping, then the interior patch once everything is dry.
Historic Hyde Park: what needs city approval
Hyde Park is a local historic district, designated in 1988 and expanded on January 5, 2023. Exterior changes there, including fences, need a Certificate of Appropriateness from Tampa's Architectural Review Commission. Staff can approve wood fences that need no variance and like-for-like exterior repairs with original or approved materials. Work inside the house isn't an exterior change.
Citywide, Tampa's fence rules allow 3 feet for a solid fence or 4 feet for a see-through fence in a required front yard, and up to 6 feet along a residential neighbor. Tell us if your home is in the district before we order materials.
Condos along Bayshore and on Davis Islands
Condo buildings along Bayshore Boulevard and on Davis Islands usually set contractor hours, elevator bookings and access rules. Tell us the rules and our crew works to them. Inside your unit, most jobs, from a TV mount to a sticking slider, fit in one visit.
