In the wake of recent hurricanes, Southerlyn Homes has been dedicated to supporting Tampa Bay residents as they recover and rebuild. We’ve cleared storm debris, remediated flooded homes, and helped displaced families find or build new homes.
With our expertise in local building codes and hurricane-resistant construction, we provide immediate relief and long-term solutions. From debris removal to constructing safe, sustainable homes resilient to future storms, our mission is to help Tampa Bay families rebuild confidently.
Our commitment to the community and our experience ensure that families can move forward into stronger, more secure homes. Our latest blog offers valuable resources to assist families in their recovery.
If you can dream it, we can build it.
We build homes that are truly custom. Each is an original, one-of-a-kind creation built by expert craftsmen using the finest materials. We partner with a talented team of architects, engineers, and designers on every project.
The construction industry is evolving quickly, and we are always looking for ways to incorporate new and innovative elements into your design.

What Our Clients Are Saying
“Brett and Ashley were so great to work with! Getting an estimate for our job was quick and easy. Brett was very helpful when narrowing down options to find what was most cost-effective and would ultimately look the best. He was also super flexible with the changes and additions we made mid-way through the project. I have gotten MANY compliments on our newly enclosed space with french doors. High-quality work from a personable and professional team!”
— Emily F.
“Brett and Ashley at Southerlyn were very easy to work with, communicated regularly and were up front and honest with the details and pricing of our project. They navigated the bumps in the supply chain brought on by COVID during our project while remaining focused on us, their client, first.”
— Brian H.
“Brett was prompt, had great communication, and really brought some great ideas to my clients as we were walking through a home they were considering purchasing. i.e. "this would save you money here, and if your goal is that, let's try this." He then was able to turn around estimated numbers (with cushion!) very quickly so they could make an educated decision on moving forward with their purchase. My clients have completed the architectural phase, are now in permitting and have had nothing but good things to say. Highly recommend giving Brett and the Southerlyn team a call!”
