Demolition Contractor Serving Tampa
From Ybor City's historic blocks to South Tampa's established neighborhoods, Bayside Construction has been Tampa's demolition contractor for nearly 40 years.
Tampa's Trusted Demolition Company Since 1986
Tampa is a city that keeps reinventing itself. Historic bungalows make way for modern construction. Aging commercial buildings come down for new development. Pools that once defined Florida living become yards for growing families.
Bayside Construction has been part of Tampa's transformation for nearly four decades. Owner David—Demo Dave—started this business when Tampa was a different city. He's watched neighborhoods evolve, worked through countless development cycles, and helped property owners across Tampa clear the way for what comes next.
We know Tampa. We know its neighborhoods, its soil conditions, its permit requirements, and its people. When you need demolition work done right in Tampa, you call a Tampa contractor.
Serving All Tampa Neighborhoods
South Tampa
From Bayshore Boulevard's waterfront estates to the bungalows of Palma Ceia and Beach Park, South Tampa's older housing stock often needs updating. We handle house demolitions for rebuild projects, pool removals for families who want their yards back, and concrete work throughout South Tampa's established neighborhoods. Hyde Park, Davis Islands, Ballast Point—we've worked them all.
Seminole Heights and Tampa Heights
These revitalizing neighborhoods north of downtown are seeing intense redevelopment. We demolish older structures making way for new construction, clear overgrown lots, and remove pools from mid-century homes. The narrow lots and mature tree canopy in these areas require careful work—exactly what we provide.
Ybor City
Tampa's historic Latin quarter presents unique demolition challenges. We work alongside developers and property owners navigating the balance between preservation and progress. When structures can't be saved, we demolish with respect for the neighborhood's character and coordinate with city requirements for historic areas.
West Tampa
One of Tampa's oldest neighborhoods with housing stock dating back over a century. Many properties need complete teardowns before rebuilding. We handle demolitions on West Tampa's compact lots, working efficiently in established neighborhoods with close-set homes.
New Tampa and Tampa Palms
Tampa's northern growth corridor features newer construction, but even here demolition needs arise. Pool removals, outbuilding teardowns, and site preparation for additions and renovations. We serve New Tampa's master-planned communities with the same professionalism we bring to the city's historic core.
Westshore and Airport Area
Tampa's commercial corridor along Westshore Boulevard and near Tampa International Airport. We provide commercial demolition for office buildings, retail spaces, and industrial properties in this busy business district.
Demolition Services for Tampa Properties
Older Home Demolition
Tampa's housing stock includes everything from 1920s bungalows to 1970s ranch homes. Older structures often contain asbestos, lead paint, and outdated construction that requires professional demolition. We assess, coordinate abatement when needed, and demolish safely.
Pool Removal in Flood Zones
Much of Tampa sits in flood zones, and proper pool removal is critical. We don't just knock in walls and bury debris—that approach creates drainage problems in Tampa's high water table. We remove pool structures completely, backfill with clean material, and compact properly so your yard drains correctly.
Urban Lot Demolition
Tampa's urban neighborhoods feature smaller lots, close neighbors, and limited equipment access. Our crews are experienced with tight-quarters demolition, protecting adjacent properties while efficiently completing the work.
Commercial and Mixed-Use Demolition
Downtown Tampa, Channelside, Westshore, and the emerging Water Street district all see ongoing commercial redevelopment. We demolish aging commercial buildings, strip retail spaces for renovation, and clear sites for new development.
Why Tampa Property Owners Choose a Local Contractor
We Know Tampa's Soil
Tampa's sandy soil and high water table affect every demolition project. Proper backfill and compaction matter here more than in many places. We understand the ground conditions and plan accordingly.
We Know Tampa's Permits
Hillsborough County and City of Tampa permit requirements can be complex, especially in historic districts, flood zones, and environmental corridors. We navigate the permit process daily and know what's required for your project.
We Know Tampa's Hurricanes
When hurricanes threaten—and in Tampa, they always do—storm damage response matters. We've responded to storm damage across Tampa for decades and provide 24/7 emergency service when disaster strikes.
We Know Tampa's Neighborhoods
From the tight streets of West Tampa to the gated communities of New Tampa, we've worked in every corner of the city. We understand what each neighborhood requires and how to work respectfully in residential areas.
