About Us
Restoration. Remodeling. Insurance Estimate Support You Can Count On.
For over 30 years, Islander Building Services has helped Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg homeowners recover from the unexpected — from water damage and fire restoration to full-scale remodeling and insurance estimate support.
We’re a family-owned business built on experience, integrity, and a deep understanding of how to fight for what our clients deserve
A Family Legacy of Building in Tampa Bay
Islander Building Services began with our founder and his father, working side by side on construction projects for Hillsborough County. Together, they laid over 30 miles of sidewalks across the region, building the foundation for the company’s future.
With decades of hands-on construction experience, we bring more than just tools and materials to the job — we bring deep-rooted knowledge, high standards, and a commitment to doing right by our clients
We Know the Insurance System. And How to Fight Back.
After years of working with homeowners navigating insurance claims, we’ve seen firsthand how many companies are quick to collect premiums, and slow to pay out what’s owed.
We work hard to level the playing field. Our team of experts combines deep construction knowledge with insurance insight to document damage thoroughly, estimate real rebuild costs, and fight for the full compensation our clients are entitled to.
Serving Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg With Pride
We’re more than just contractors — we’re your neighbors. When disaster strikes, we’re the team you call to restore your peace of mind and fight for what’s fair.
