Florida Steel Homes was founded by Del and Leslie Malam after losing their home to flooding from a hurricane storm surge. We, along with our neighbors, were overwhelmed by the red tape and floored by the exorbitant prices we were quoted by contractors—during a devastating emergency!
American Steel Core Builders (ASCB) proved to be the developer with the heart to rebuild our community. We built Florida Steel Homes to share what we’ve learned, to help rebuild communities across Florida. Our focus is on building homes that are functional, beautiful and built to last, offering long-term peace of mind for our Florida homeowners.
ASCB operates on a revolutionary developer model for building new homes. Instead of working with just one small General Contractor company and separate companies for each aspect of the build (such as architectural design, engineering analyses, etc.), the homeowner benefits from a centralized point of contact throughout the entire process.
The developer offers comprehensive project management services and an extensive network of providers. From initial land surveys, to building strong foundations, through to final design touches, our experienced team guides you through the process. If one of our providers starts falling behind on timelines, we ensure your project stays on track by bringing in another provider to keep your build moving forward.
This innovative developer model enables us to negotiate the best rates with providers (through greater scale than an individual GC can offer) and pass those savings directly to you.
We’ve leveraged these scale discounts to deliver the strongest, most innovative building systems affordably, with steel and concrete construction (rated to withstand hurricane winds over 185 mph), metal roofs, energy-efficient heat designs, and built to exceed modern flood risk standards. Our homes are pest and mold resistant and our limited time free solar panel offering provides long term energy solutions through leveraging Florida’s greatest natural resource—the sunshine that beams out after every storm.
Every home is delivered turn-key, with everything you need to move in, including washer, dryer and all standard kitchen appliances, along with high quality standard inclusions such as granite kitchen counters, shaker-style cabinets and vinyl plank flooring throughout.
The developer difference is what makes a Florida Steel Homes home the most affordable, quality construction in the state!
