Customer Reviews

Eric Gruman

We had a great experience working with Mike at Cogdill Builders of Florida on our custom home. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail were outstanding. Communication was excellent, timelines were met, and the entire process was smooth and professional. There were some critical factors which distinguishes Cogdill from other builders. For example, he does his own plans so we worked together on the plans for months until we ultimately came up with a plan perfect for us. He also spent as much time as necessary to complete the plans without any additional expense, I suspect that saved us a lot of money. Mike also will accommodate changes throughout the building process. Sometimes you can’t sense the reality of the design until the walls are up, Mike worked with us to tweak some aspects of the project while it was ongoing. He is also very good at managing the permit process which was very smooth. Overall we now live in a beautiful house and Mike’s expertise made all the difference. We highly recommend Cogdill Builders of Florida for anyone looking to build a high-quality custom home.

We worked with Cogdill Builders to build a 1,250 square ft. pool cabana (custom accessory structure) on our Seminole Heights property and Mike Cogdill was a great partner and guide. Mike works with you where you are - if you want to save money he will help; if you want to build a palace, he will get it done. This was a difficult project from the start due to narrow access to the back of our lot and then we had covid issues to deal with. Mike and his team were all great to work with through a challenging process and we couldn't be happier with the end result. If you are building a home in the Tampa Bay Area, I recommend that you talk to Mike as early as possible in the process and give him a shot.

Emiliya Cogdill

I am a realtor, and I have many clients who struggle to find the perfect house. Working with Cogdill Builders in purchasing vacant land and building custom homes for my clients has been truly exceptional. I first met Mike Cogdill at a Tampa home show and was immediately impressed by his extensive knowledge of the custom-building process. When I learned that he is a fourth-generation builder, it became a clear choice for me to start working with Cogdill Builders as a Vacant Land Acquisition and Due Diligence Specialist. I am incredibly thankful I made that decision. Mike Cogdill is ALWAYS available to answer any questions I have about the construction process, due diligence, or construction costs. His responsiveness to clients is also incredible. Cogdill Builders offers a wide range of functional floor plans, and they are very generous in modifying them to meet clients’ needs. Mike personally attends city and county inspections, making immediate corrections if necessary. Cogdill Builders handles every situation with the highest level of professionalism, always keeping the clients’ best interests in mind. As an experienced Realtor in Florida, I highly recommend that all my fellow realtors consider working with Cogdill Builders for custom home builds.

We recently built our first home with Mike and what a great experience it was. He is available and knowledgeable. He has tips to keep your home simple to keep costs down, or make it as elaborate as you want. It truly was a custom experience. He was very forward with us and allowed us to meet with all of his contractors to explain what we wanted. He lets you be apart of the process as much as you want to be. When we had county concerns, Mike was never overwhelmed and got it done. He built us a beautiful home
