About Coastal Lane | Luxury Construction & Renovation in St. Petersburg, FL

01 Our Story

Historic St. Petersburg porch restoration

Our story

A practice built around the details.

Richard Lane founded Coastal Lane after years of seeing luxury projects finish at 99% — punch lists ignored, finishes rushed, the soul of the home traded for a moving date.

Trained as an engineer and obsessed with craft, he built a practice that exists to bridge that final gap. We take on restorations, close-outs, and full-scope management — but the constant is the same: a third-party expert eye, professional oversight, and a refusal to ship anything that isn't ready.

We work in St. Petersburg because we live in St. Petersburg. Snell Isle, Old Northeast, Kenwood, Tierra Verde — every project is on a street we know, in a city we love.

02 Principles

Four commitments we make on every project.

Transparency

Detailed budgets, clear timelines, regular updates. You see what we see — every line item, every timeline shift.

Engineering rigor

Every recommendation is backed by structural and code analysis — never opinion, never guesswork.

Artisan craft

The finishes — molding, millwork, casework — are where the home is felt. We treat them as the product.

Neighbor's ethic

Your home is on a street we drive. We treat it like our own — because in this city, that's exactly what it is.

03 Founder

Richard Lane.

He personally walks every punch list and signs off every close-out. If you're hiring Coastal Lane, you're hiring him.
