What We Do

At BW Saba, we believe that with the right team in place, bringing a dream home to life can be a positive and rewarding experience. With a combined six decades of construction experience and a down-to-earth, client-centric mentality, the BW Saba team maintains focus on honesty and clear communication, with not only its clients, but everyone involved in the project - from Architect to subcontractor - so that the client’s true intent for the home is manifested. This includes early collaboration with the design and engineering team to discuss innovative materials and building systems to preserve the home’s ecosystem. It’s all about balance of beauty, luxury and the sustainability of the home.

  • “We used BW Saba for a major home renovation last year and we were extremely happy with the results! Everything was professionally handled and they stayed on the job until every last detail was completed to perfection. Everyone in their crew was very polite, hard working and detail oriented. We love our new home and would highly recommend them for any job!”

  • “Bruce Saba accomplishes the magic of a master builder with the hand of an artist. Our Cape Dutch style home on St Armands was built so the house could remain at grade - 5.5 feet above sea level - in case a wheel chair was part of our future. Bruce managed to avoid all steps throughout the house and grounds except for two steps down to the dock. And Bruce worked magic with beautiful cypress, Florida's native wood, sometimes paneling a room, sometimes a ceiling. Huis aan Zee has been likened to a little jewel, an apt description for this wonderful residence that is fit for one's senior years.
