Sanford is one of Central Florida's oldest cities, founded in 1877, with a historic downtown on Lake Monroe that predates most of what surrounds it. The city has a genuinely diverse housing market: historic homes in the Sanford Historic District dating to the late 1800s and early 1900s, postwar subdivisions built through the 1950s and 1960s, and newer growth along the US-17–92 corridor and out toward Markham Woods Road. St. Cyr Contracting works across that full spectrum.
We are a family-owned general contractor based in Winter Garden. We understand what renovation means in a city with this much housing history, and we have the experience to work correctly on both older homes and newer construction in the Sanford area.
Sanford's historic and established housing stock
The Sanford Historic District contains homes that are 100 to 125 years old. Wood-frame construction, original hardwood floors, original windows, and systems that have been patched and updated in layers over a century. Renovating in the historic district requires working within City of Sanford Historic Preservation guidelines, which govern exterior changes to contributing structures.
We know how to work within those constraints: sourcing appropriate materials, keeping changes reversible where required, and maintaining the character the city is protecting. Homes outside the historic district have fewer constraints but still benefit from a contractor who understands older construction and does not treat every home the same way.
What we renovate in Sanford
Kitchen renovations in Sanford often involve older homes where the kitchen was closed off from the rest of the house by a load-bearing wall. Opening that wall requires structural assessment, beam installation, and a permit. Bathroom renovations, particularly converting older cast-iron tub configurations, are common. Home additions in Sanford's older neighborhoods require careful attention to how new construction integrates with original rooflines, siding, and foundation types. And custom cabinetry built to fit the proportions of an older home, rather than looking transplanted from a new construction project.
Permits through the City of Sanford
Sanford has its own Building Division. Residential and commercial permits within city limits go through the City of Sanford. For historic district projects, Historic Preservation Board review may be required before a building permit is issued. We navigate both processes. For work in unincorporated Seminole County near Sanford, such as the Markham Woods Road corridor or Lake Mary Boulevard area, permits go through the Seminole County Building Division.
Serving Sanford from Winter Garden
Sanford is about 28 to 32 miles from our Winter Garden shop, typically a 35 to 40 minute drive via I-4 East. We take on Sanford projects for clients who want a contractor that will do the work correctly, particularly on older homes that require more care than standard track-home renovation. If you have an older home in Sanford that needs significant work, call us.
