Cabanas, additions, garage conversions, ADUs — permitted, inspected, warranted.
SaniCan LLC delivers reliable, licensed, locally-owned new construction service throughout Sand Key, FL. The same crew, the same phone number, and the same fixed-price quote — every time you call.
What we do
Small new construction is its own category — too big for a handyman, too small for a production builder. SaniCan LLC fills that gap. We build cabanas, additions, garage conversions, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), pool houses, detached offices, and small new-builds. Every project is permitted, inspected at every required stage, and delivered with a one-year workmanship warranty.
Sand Key is condo country, and condo work has its own rules. Service elevators, association approvals, building-specific contractor lists, and tight timelines around guest turnovers. We've worked in nearly every major Sand Key tower and know the routine.
What's included
ADUs and garage conversions have become some of the highest-ROI improvements in Pinellas County, both for rental income and for flexible family-housing needs. Done correctly — meaning permitted and inspected — they add provable square footage to your appraisal and qualify as legal dwelling units for short- or long-term rental. Done incorrectly (no permits, illegal kitchen install, undersized electrical) they can become a tear-down requirement at sale time. We do them right the first time, on permits, with the documentation that protects your appraisal and your title.
We pre-coordinate with property management, secure association approvals before mobilizing, protect common areas with masonite, and dispose of debris off-site daily. No piles in the trash room.
On-site discussion of intended use, footprint, and budget. Initial sketch and budget range within a week.
Engineered plans, HOA submission if required, and permit package pulled. This stage typically runs 6–12 weeks.
Foundation, framing, mechanicals, finishes — all done in-house or with vetted, long-term subcontractors.
Final inspection, walk-through, and one-year workmanship warranty issued.
Honest pricing
Cabanas and pool houses typically $35k–$95k+ depending on plumbing, electrical, and finish level. Room additions $200–$350 per square foot turn-key. Garage conversions to living space $55k–$110k including all mechanicals. ADUs $140k–$280k+ depending on size and finish. Every quote is written and fixed, with milestone-based draws (never front-loaded), and we don't ask for final payment until you sign the walk-through.
Sand Key boards keep us on their approved-contractor lists because we make their lives easier — paperwork done right, common areas protected, and no follow-up complaints from neighboring units.
