An old city on the Hillsborough River
Temple Terrace was incorporated in 1925 and sits northeast of Tampa on the Hillsborough River, next to the USF area. From the Tampa base it is about 15 minutes via I-4 and 56th Street.
The housing mixes 1920s Mediterranean Revival homes with mid-century ranches, and the Temple Terrace Golf & Country Club anchors the neighborhood. Older lots mean mature landscaping and concrete that has had decades to settle.
Wider driveways and walking paths
A Temple Terrace homeowner left a Google review about a driveway expansion and a walking path. That pairing suits older lots, where parking is tight and there is no good way through the yard.
Cracked mid-century slabs are repair or replacement jobs. Paver patios and walkways are a natural fit beside Mediterranean Revival homes, and pool decks and curbs round out the usual requests. Screened lanais and pool cages are common across the area, so patios are laid out around them.
World Class has also finished jobs another contractor left half done and fixed earlier mistakes, according to customer reviews. Bring along anything that needs a second look.
Temple Terrace runs its own permits
The city handles its own permits, so you work with Temple Terrace and not the county. Driveway approaches and sidewalks in the public right of way usually need one. James guides you through it and keeps you informed.
Sandy soil, heavy summer storms and tree roots apply here as everywhere. Slope, base and root planning keep a new slab from holding water or lifting. If your street has an HOA, check its rules first.
