Architects, structural engineers, and interior design consultants receive project design briefs, site information, and specifications as needed to develop your project plans.

Building permit applications submitted to Marion County Building Services, the City of Ocala, or other permitting authorities include required property owner information, project descriptions, and design documents. Approved permit plans become public records under Florida law.

6. Cookies & Website Tracking

•       Essential Cookies — required for website functionality
•       Analytics Cookies — help us understand website usage to improve our online presence
•       Marketing Cookies — limited use to understand campaign effectiveness

LSB Construction does not use aggressive advertising trackers or sell visitor behavioral data. You may manage cookies through your browser settings.

In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, LSB Construction will notify you in accordance with the Florida Information Protection Act (FIPA), Chapter 501.171, Florida Statutes — requiring notification to affected Florida residents as expeditiously as possible and written notification to the Florida AG if 500 or more residents are affected.

8. Project Photography & Portfolio

LSB Construction documents completed projects for portfolio and marketing use. By executing a Construction Contract, you grant LSB a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to photograph and feature the completed project in our marketing materials without identifying your personal information or specific address. If you prefer your project not be featured, notify us in writing before substantial completion.
