About BCPeabody

A Tampa family construction firm, founded by an engineer.

Col. (Ret.) Bob Carpenter, P.E., founded BCPeabody in 2006 after 25 years in the Army, retiring as Commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Jacksonville District. He became a Florida Certified General Contractor in 2008, and by 2014 the firm was running dozens of kitchen, bath and home projects across West Central Florida.

Bob leads the firm today as President and CEO and makes its final decisions. His daughter, Kimberly Carpenter, runs project operations and client delivery: estimates, schedules, trades and keeping you informed.

"We apply the same discipline we use on large federal projects to every custom home, renovation, and recovery engagement we take on."

Experience that shows up on your project.

Bob spent his career solving construction problems on paper before they reached the field. Kimberly has spent more than 13 years estimating, purchasing and managing projects, including a remodeling territory with as many as 42 jobs underway at once. For you, that means a line-item price you can follow, a schedule you can plan around, details settled before work starts, and a straight answer when something changes. That holds whether the job is a bathroom, an addition or a new home.
