Posted on Steven VassalloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Iridium Development turned our dream into reality! From the very first meeting to the final walkthrough, their team showed incredible professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for our vision. Our home isn’t just a house—it’s a reflection of everything we hoped for, and Iridium made that possible. Every corner speaks to quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design. They listened to what mattered most to us and delivered beyond expectations. The process was smooth, communication was clear, and the end result is stunning. We couldn’t be happier with our new home and the experience of working with such a dedicated team. If you’re looking for a builder who truly cares and delivers excellence, Iridium Development is the one. Thank you for giving us a home we absolutely love!Posted on Savannah FordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lee and his team at Iridium has been great to work with while rebuilding our home after Hurricane Helene. They’re reliable, communicative, and deliver quality work. It’s been a huge relief knowing everything is handled professionally. We highly recommend them.Posted on christina KinardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve been working with the team at Iridium to rebuild our home after the hurricanes. Lee is a standup guy and always available for anything I’ve needed. My project manager Mikaela is an angel. She knows her stuff & is super responsive.Posted on Steven ShumakerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family is in the process of rebuilding our home after the flooding from Hurricane Helene, and working with Lee and the Iridium team has been exceptional. We decided to abandon the first floor and essentially build a new home on top, and everything has gone exactly as expected. Their pricing has been completely transparent with a pay-as-you-go model, which has made us feel comfortable and confident that we're getting exactly what we pay for. The team has also been incredibly helpful throughout the permitting process. With so many homeowners looking to elevate their homes after the storms, there were a lot of unknowns, but Iridium guided us through every step. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking to elevate a home out of a flood area—or to anyone building a new home in general. I did extensive research on pricing for home lifting and new construction, and Iridium was by far the most attractive option. Not only were they one of the lowest-cost solutions, but they also allowed us to design the footprint we wanted. We’re currently on track to be back in our home early in the new year, and we couldn’t be happier with the process so far.Posted on Brent FosterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anyone considering a home elevation project in St. Pete should strongly consider Iridium Development. I chose Iridium because of Lee Sewards’s extensive construction background and his expertise in elevating homes. He specializes in leveraging portions of the existing structure, which helps to minimize costs while maintaining quality. Lee is extremely transparent throughout the process. You have access to every bill, vendor PO, and a complete view of the project through their portal. If you want a contractor who combines experience, transparency, and impressive speed, I highly recommend working with Lee at Iridium Development.Posted on Kai CoxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with the Iridium Team. Attentive to needs and quick to respond.Posted on Mike NorrellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am in the process of building a "new" home with Iridium Development. I put "new" in quotes since we are actually building a second level on top of the existing structure that got flooded with Hurricane Helene. Lee Seward was the only builder that I spoke to after the event that was able to verbalize a clear plan on how to add a second level without demolishing the existing block structure. On top of that (pun intended), he was able to add 1000 square feet to our plan and create an entirely new layout. It took a while to get permits but once that was completed, the actual construction went very quickly. What is unique about Lee is that he not only has unsurpassed knowledge in new construction but is also a pleasure to deal with. He has a calm and confident demeanor, so any issues that did arise (which is unavoidable with any construction project) he handled quickly and creatively. In many cases, the final solution was better than the original plan. Iridium is able to provide true custom builds...if you can dream it up, they can build it. We have also enjoyed working with our project manager, Mikaela Bowman, who has kept everything organized and on track...and has done an excellent job communicating updates. Since we were out of town during the start of the construction, she even sent us pictures several times a week to show progress. I would not hesitate to build with Lee and his team again in the future.Posted on Jennifer GansTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I met Lee from Iridium Development Company about a year ago, after Hurricane Helene had dumped four feet of water in my home. I was in desperate need of help and completely defeated. Originally, I had applied to have my house lifted, but after years of being ghosted by FEMA, I was at a standstill. When I first met Lee, I learned that he and his crew were pulling drywall out of damaged homes for free after the hurricane; a small gesture that spoke volumes about their integrity and dedication. Lee brought a fresh perspective: building the new home on top of the existing structure. This made perfect sense because the original 1959 floor plan wasn’t ideal to lift, and it certainly wouldn’t have been attractive to a future buyer. His plan fortified the original structure while creating a brand-new home with a primary bedroom and bath, and even added an extra room by perfectly utilizing the space. While building a home is never a quick process, Lee, Mikaela, and the entire team used humor, professionalism, and meticulous organization to make it an enjoyable experience. Now that the house is nearly complete, it’s clear that Lee’s 25+ years of expertise and attention to detail will pay off for years to come. I am forever grateful to Lee and the team at Iridium Development Inc. for changing my life for the better — they will absolutely be invited to the housewarming !!Posted on Brady BrookinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
