Services in Winter Haven, FL
Three Core Services — All Fully Permitted and Warranted
Winter Haven is Polk County's second-largest city, just 18 miles east of Lakeland on US-17. Evangelisto Construction's Lakeland office is 20 minutes away, and we regularly complete remodeling and construction projects for Winter Haven homeowners.
Kitchen Remodeling in Winter Haven
Winter Haven's older home stock — many built in the 1970s and 1980s — often features closed-off kitchen layouts that are perfect candidates for layout changes and wall removals to open the space. From cabinet replacements to full gut renovations — we handle every phase, including permits and architect drawings.

Home Additions in Winter Haven
With larger lot sizes common in Winter Haven's lakefront and suburban neighborhoods, home additions are frequently viable without setback issues. Many homeowners add square footage rather than move closer to Chain of Lakes amenities. Master suites, second stories, guest rooms — we design, permit, and build additions that look and function like they were always part of the home.

Mother-in-Law Suites in Winter Haven
Winter Haven's multigenerational family culture makes in-law suites a popular choice, especially in the Lake Howard and Lake Hartridge neighborhoods where properties have the space for attached or detached additions. Attached additions, garage conversions, and detached guest houses — all designed for real family life and built to last.

Our Approach
What Separates Evangelisto Construction From Other Polk County Contractors
You See Plans Before You Sign Anything
Doug sketches your project during the free consultation. No guesswork about what you're buying into before a dollar is spent.
No Surprise Change Orders
We inspect before we quote. Existing conditions are assessed before the price is set — not discovered halfway through demo.
Doug Is Personally On Your Job
This isn't a large company that assigns a project manager you never meet. Doug Evangelisto oversees every project personally.
Polk County Is Our Backyard
We know local building codes, local inspectors, and how Polk County homes are built — because we've worked on hundreds of them.
Honest Communication Throughout
"Plan and save money before starting a project" — Doug's own advice to every client. We don't sell you scope you don't need.
2-Year Workmanship Warranty
Every project — kitchen, addition, or MIL suite — comes with a 2-year warranty on workmanship. Not every contractor offers this.
