Construction & Remodeling in Crystal River, FL
Citrus County Construction is a licensed general contractor serving Crystal River, Florida — the home of the manatees and Kings Bay. From waterfront remodels and elevated coastal construction to tourism-related commercial buildouts, we deliver code-compliant work built for life on the water.
Building in Crystal River, Florida
Crystal River sits on Kings Bay, a network of spring-fed canals and waterfront lots famous for manatees and year-round tourism. Building here means working in flood zones where elevation certificates, FEMA requirements, and proper drainage matter as much as the finishes. Much of the housing stock is older and waterfront-adjacent, so projects often involve moisture control, updated framing, and elevated or flood-resistant construction details. We understand Crystal River's coastal permitting through the Citrus County Building Division and build to current Florida Building Code, accounting for salt air, humidity, and storm surge so your project lasts on the Nature Coast.
Coastal construction and remodeling in Crystal River
Crystal River is defined by the water — Kings Bay, the spring runs, and the canals that wind through its waterfront neighborhoods. Building or remodeling here is different from inland work: elevation, flood zones, drainage, and salt-air durability all factor into a project that will hold up on the Nature Coast. Citrus County Construction brings the local experience to navigate these requirements while delivering finishes that match the relaxed, water-focused lifestyle Crystal River is known for.
Built for life on the water
Many Crystal River homes are older and sit close to the water, which means remodels often uncover dated framing, moisture issues, and the need for flood-resistant detailing. We manage the full process — from permitting through the Citrus County Building Division to scheduling trades and final inspection — and we build with Florida’s heat, humidity, and storm surge in mind. Whether you’re updating a canal-front home, adding waterfront living space, or building out a tourism-driven commercial space downtown, we deliver durable, code-compliant results. Every project starts with a free, itemized estimate.
