Construction Services
Hourglass Builders rebuilds Central Florida homes after water intrusion and hidden damage, and builds substantial renovations and additions. Every project starts with understanding what is actually going on.
Water Intrusion & Hidden Damage
Water finds its way into walls, floors, and framing long before anyone sees it. We open up the affected areas, document what failed, and rebuild so the problem does not come back.
Typical projectsRotted sill plates and framing, leaks around windows and doors, damage behind showers and tubs, wet subfloors.

Post-Mitigation Reconstruction
Once the mitigation company has dried the home, someone has to put it back together correctly. We rebuild drywall, insulation, cabinetry, flooring, and finishes, and work with your adjuster when insurance is involved.
Typical projectsRebuilds after water, fire, and storm losses, and after mold remediation.

Structural & Envelope Repairs
When framing, sheathing, or the building envelope fails, cosmetic fixes do not last. We repair the structure and the weather barrier, working to an engineer's design when one is required.
Typical projectsFraming repairs, porch and exterior wall rebuilds, window and door replacement with proper flashing.

Selective Demolition & Investigation
Sometimes the only way to know what is wrong is to look. We open walls, ceilings, and floors in a controlled way so conditions can be documented and reviewed by the right specialist.
Typical projectsExploratory open-ups and documenting conditions for insurance claims or specialists.
Talk Through Your Situation
Full Reconstruction
For major losses, we manage the rebuild from open-up to final walkthrough with one point of accountability. Scopes are itemized and written so homeowners, adjusters, and lenders can follow them.
Typical projectsWhole-room and multi-room rebuilds and insurance losses.

Kitchens, Baths & Additions
We plan and build substantial renovations and additions with the same attention to what is behind the walls. You get a contractor who checks the structure and moisture conditions before the finishes go in.
Typical projectsFull kitchen and bath renovations, room additions, and whole-home renovations.
Plan Your RenovationWhat we coordinate, not perform
Hourglass Builders is a licensed general contractor. We do not perform emergency water extraction and drying, mold assessment, engineering, or independent leak detection. When a project needs one of these, we coordinate with the appropriate licensed professional and build the repair to their findings.
Tell us what happened or what you have in mind, and we will talk through the scope and next steps.
