Bradenton

Bradenton covers a lot of ground: older block homes near the river, dense newer communities out toward Lakewood Ranch, and acreage east of I-75 where horses are common. We work on all three, which is why our Bradenton weeks often include a tile roof, a kitchen, and a set of stalls.

Tile roofing in particular is heavy work here, and it's the detail — valleys, penetrations, and flashings — that decides whether a roof leaks in year three. We form those details rather than relying on sealant, and the decking underneath gets repaired and re-nailed before dry-in.

Interior remodels on the older housing stock usually involve opening up compartmentalized floor plans. That means load-bearing walls, beams, and sometimes footings, all of it drawn and permitted before we cut.
