Built Solid Homes, LLC is a general contracting company based in Sarasota County, Florida, with over twenty years of experience in the construction industry.

They have successfully executed numerous new waterfront homes and commercial projects along the Gulf Coast, including high-profile renovations such as the $20 million overhaul of the historic Sarasota Opera House.
