Winter Haven General Contractor

New homes, additions, remodels, outdoor living and commercial buildouts for Winter Haven, from a licensed general contractor just down the road in Lakeland.

Building and Remodeling in the Chain of Lakes City

Winter Haven is one of the busiest parts of our service area. We work on lakefront homes along the Chain of Lakes, established neighborhoods close to downtown and the newer subdivisions that keep spreading across the city, as well as offices and retail spaces that need a buildout or a remodel.

Building near the lakes brings its own challenges. A high water table, sandy soil and strict drainage and setback rules all affect foundations, additions, pool-side structures and site work. Open water also means more wind exposure, which puts extra stress on exterior walls, windows and screen enclosures. We plan for those conditions from the first site visit rather than discovering them halfway through the job.

Permits come from the City of Winter Haven or Polk County depending on where your property sits, and we handle both along with the inspections. DBR Construction is a Florida Certified General Contractor (CGC #1531838) rated 4.9 stars from 100+ reviews, with our own licensed roofing division (CCC #1333156). Call 1 (863) 602-4200 for a free estimate.
