Brandon grew fast, and it shows in the housing. Close to four in ten homes here went up in the 1970s and 1980s. Those houses are 40 and 50 years old now, and plenty sit on lots people want to use another way. An old pool or a tired addition comes out first, and sometimes the whole house does.

Census figures count 48,503 housing units in Brandon, and more than half are single family houses. About 21 percent went up in the 1980s and about 16 percent in the 1970s. Limona, an older part of town, dates back to the 1870s and joined Brandon around 1963. Newer builds in Heather Lakes and Providence Lakes sit right next to those older pockets.
A teardown here usually happens on a lot with houses close on both sides. We bring in an excavator and dump trucks, pull the structure down in sections and load it out. Slabs, footings, driveways and fence lines come out with it when you want them gone. Full house demolition ends with a clean, graded lot.
Garages, additions, sheds, barns, decks and carports come down the same way. Older Brandon lots often hold one of those long after it stopped being useful. We can take one structure out and leave the house standing.
Brandon sits inland, about 11 miles east of downtown Tampa, so storm surge does not reach it. Rain does. Hurricane Milton came ashore on October 9, 2024 and dumped over a foot of rain on parts of the county. Water covered streets around Brandon and swamped Paul Sanders Park.
Local reporting put the county's damage from the 2024 storms at more than 2.4 billion dollars. Some of that turned into demolition work. A flooded ground floor gets gutted to the studs so the framing can dry. Wet drywall, insulation, flooring, cabinets and tile come out and go on the truck.
Hillsborough County applies a substantial damage rule to buildings in flood zones. When repair costs reach 50 percent of the structure's market value, the building has to meet current floodplain rules. That math pushes some owners toward a teardown. We also handle selective demolition and interior gut work when only part of a building has to go.
Brandon Boulevard is State Road 60, and it carries most of the town's retail. The mall off Interstate 75 opened in 1995 and now goes by Brandon Exchange. I-75 exits 256 and 257 feed the corridor, and the Selmon Expressway runs in from Tampa. Buildings along that stretch have been through several rounds of tenants.
Retail turnover means gut work. We strip a space back to the block and studs so the next tenant can build it out. Shelving, counters, ceilings, flooring and old fixtures get loaded and hauled. Property owners and managers also call us for a cleanout when a tenant leaves things behind.
Whole buildings come down too. Commercial demolition covers block and frame buildings, restaurant spaces, small warehouses and outbuildings. We work around businesses that are still open next door and take the debris to a disposal or recycling facility.
Brandon covers about 33 square miles of land and is mostly built out. What is left is infill: a lot behind an older house, a corner parcel, a back acre. Ground like that grows over fast in this climate. Vines, palmettos, Brazilian pepper and volunteer trees can take a lot back in a few seasons.
Those lots turn up off Bell Shoals Road, Lumsden Road and the side streets between them. We clear the trees, stumps, brush and debris, and the trees you want kept stay standing. Hillsborough County protects some trees by size, so a removal permit can apply on your parcel. The county can tell you what your lot needs before anyone starts.
Pools and mobile homes come out on that same kind of lot. An inground pool can be broken up and filled in, or hauled out in full. Census figures count about 600 mobile homes inside Brandon. We take the home off the pad, recycle the metal and haul the rest away.

Global Construction did an outstanding job demolishing the original single-story, ground-floor portion of our home after it was flooded by Hurricane Helene. This was a highly complex project that several other companies declined because the original house had to be carefully separated from the remaining garage and ADU above, while also preserving the existing pool. Their team handled the demolition with skill, professionalism, and great attention to detail. They took on a difficult project, completed the work safely and efficiently, and delivered phenomenal results at a very fair price. We are extremely grateful to Global Construction and would highly recommend them to anyone needing an experienced and dependable demolition contractor.
We needed help demoing affected homes from the hurricanes in late 2024 to dry them out and thankfully we were connected to Mike and his son and their crew. They were great to work with, they were punctual, they were respectful and we all around a great experience working with them.
