Nelson & Nelson Contractors Inc., established in 1972, has a rich legacy in the construction industry. Initially focused on grading sites for modular homes, the company rapidly expanded its services to include small parking lots and municipal projects. By the early 1980s, Nelson & Nelson began to establish itself in more complex ventures, having successfully completed its first Florida Department of Transportation (F.D.O.T.) project and subsequently engaging in the construction of local roads and the notable Lowry Park Zoo.
Throughout the decades, the contractors have taken on significant projects, ranging from sewer and water treatment to mass transit facilities and various streetscapes. They were pioneers in the bay area, collaborating with the City of Tampa to deliver the first design-build roadway project, the Bayshore Blvd. Realignment. In the 1990s, the company was involved in the enlargement and reconstruction of major thoroughfares, contributing to the growth of the infrastructure in Pasco County and beyond.
In recent years, Nelson & Nelson Contractors Inc. has diversified its portfolio to accommodate a wider array of project types and sizes. Their extensive construction experience includes the renovation of the Innisbrook Golf & Spa Resort and major site work for commercial retail spaces and hospitals. They are known for their commitment to timely performance and budgetary constraints, showcasing a strong ability to adapt and innovate across both building construction and heavy civil ventures.
The firm is dedicated to being a prime contractor in a myriad of projects—everything from airports to zoos, fulfilling contracts for both public and private clients with an emphasis on design-build and construction management methodologies. Nelson & Nelson's broad expertise and history make them a cornerstone in the construction landscape of Tampa Bay.
