Why Auburndale homeowners call True Builders

4.8 Stars · Serving Central Florida since 2009

Auburndale sits in the middle of a chain of lakes right between Lakeland and Winter Haven, and that central Polk County location makes it a comfortable place to call home. Homes here range from established lakefront properties to newer construction, so remodeling needs vary a lot from one Auburndale street to the next.

We keep a local listing at 1627 US-92 W, positioned between our Lakeland office and our Plant City headquarters, so Auburndale gets the same fast attention as any other town in our core service area. As a licensed Florida general contractor, GC license CBC1258346, serving Central Florida since 2009, we bring self-performing framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, cabinetry, countertop, tile, and paint crews to every project.

A local presence in Auburndale

Auburndale sits between Lakeland and Winter Haven, within easy reach of both of our Polk County offices. That central spot means a project manager or crew is never routing far to get there, and we see enough of the area to recognize patterns in how local homes are built.

  • Founder and CEO Issac Turpin built True Builders around local familiarity, not a distant regional office
  • 4.8 star rating across more than 400 Google reviews
  • A+ Better Business Bureau rating (not BBB accredited)
  • Available 24/7, so urgent repairs do not wait for normal business hours
  • Crews already know the roads, permitting offices, and housing stock common to the area

The remodeling services we bring to Auburndale

Kitchen remodeling and bathroom remodeling are the two projects we hear about most from Auburndale homeowners, from new kitchen cabinets and countertops to a bathroom remodel that has not been touched in years. Home additions come up often too, and our self-performing crews manage the entire project as one coordinated build instead of separate contracts.

  • Kitchen remodeling, including new kitchen cabinets and countertops
  • Bathroom remodeling, from vanity updates to a full bathroom remodel
  • Home additions for growing Auburndale households
  • Cabinetry, countertops, and tile work as standalone upgrades
  • Storm damage and fire damage repair and reconstruction
  • Whole-home renovations for Auburndale properties of any age

Our design-to-finish remodeling process

Every Auburndale project starts with a consultation where our in-house design team reviews cabinetry, countertop, and tile choices in person, at the home or in our showroom. Once a plan is set, the same in-house crews carry it through construction from start to finish.

  • You see real materials, not just photos, and there is no pressure to commit
  • A realistic timeline set before demolition ever begins
  • One coordinated plan across framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, and cabinetry
  • The design team and the build crew are the same people, start to finish
  • Fewer surprises when one trade needs to hand off work to the next

Home additions and renovations in Auburndale

Auburndale households often outgrow their homes as families change, and a home addition can solve that without the disruption of moving. Full renovations are common too, particularly in older sections near the lakes where homes may need updated systems alongside cosmetic changes.

  • Self-performing framing, electrical, and plumbing crews under one plan
  • New construction ties cleanly into the existing structure, foundation to roofline
  • We manage permitting and inspections so a project does not stall on paperwork
  • Older lake homes sometimes reveal aging wiring or plumbing once walls open
  • In-house electrical and plumbing crews address that discovery immediately

Signs it is time to remodel your Auburndale home

Homeowners often wait longer than they need to before starting a remodel. In Auburndale, where housing stock spans decades of construction near the lakes and along the newer corridors, a few consistent signs help homeowners decide when to call rather than patching small problems one at a time.

  • Kitchen cabinets that are swelling, separating, or no longer closing properly
  • Countertops with cracks, stains, or burn marks that cleaning cannot fix
  • A bathroom remodel that has not happened since the home was built
  • Rising utility bills tied to aging plumbing or electrical systems
  • A growing household that has outgrown the current floor plan
  • Recent storm damage or fire damage that exposed the framing, wiring, or plumbing

Questions Auburndale homeowners ask us most

A few questions come up on nearly every Auburndale project, from timelines to permitting to financing.

  • How long does kitchen remodeling take? Most kitchens take several weeks, though the timeline depends on custom versus in-stock cabinets and countertops, and any plumbing or electrical changes
  • Do you handle permitting for home additions? Yes, we manage permitting and inspections on every addition and major renovation
  • What if storm or fire damage turns up mid-project? Our in-house framing, electrical, and plumbing crews address it without pausing to bring in another company
  • Can financing spread out the cost? Yes, through our third-party lending partner, and prequalifying is a soft credit check with no impact on credit score

What sets a licensed general contractor apart in Auburndale

Not every contractor working in Auburndale carries a Florida general contractor license, and that distinction matters. A licensed general contractor is accountable for permitting, inspections, and code compliance on the entire project, not just one trade.

  • True Builders self-performs framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, cabinetry, countertop, tile, and paint work
  • The same crew that plans a project also builds it, cutting down on miscommunication
  • Storm damage and fire damage repairs move directly into reconstruction under one contractor
  • Part of the True family, which has served more than 100,000 customers across Central Florida
  • A local office stays close to Auburndale and the rest of Polk County
