Reserve Study Companies in Tampa Bay
Tampa Bay splits between downtown towers in Hillsborough County and older coastal condominiums in Pinellas County, and the 2024 hurricanes changed the component lists of many of them. 4 firms are based in the Tampa Bay area, 21 more work in Florida, and 7 national firms cover it.
Associations in the Tampa Bay area
Hillsborough County has the downtown, Harbour Island and Channelside towers and a large inland stock of townhome and single-family HOAs from Brandon to New Tampa. Pinellas County has the older coastal buildings, from Clearwater Beach and Indian Rocks Beach to Treasure Island, St. Pete Beach and the bayfront high-rises of St. Petersburg, many built in the 1970s and 1980s. Pasco County to the north is mostly newer HOAs.
After Helene and Milton
Hurricanes Helene and Milton struck the Tampa Bay area less than two weeks apart in the fall of 2024, and storm surge flooded ground floors, elevator pits, electrical rooms and pool equipment along the Pinellas coast. A reserve study prepared before the storms may no longer describe the buildings. Where components were replaced with insurance or loan money, the component list and the remaining useful lives should be updated, and the SIRS reread against what is now in place.
The structural integrity reserve study page sets out who may perform a SIRS and what it must cover.

Distance and the fee in Tampa Bay
Several firms on our list are based in Tampa and Safety Harbor, so travel across the bay area is short. Associations further north in Pasco, Hernando or Citrus counties may see a mileage line on the proposal.
Proposals from firms in different cities will differ on the level of service and the travel line before they differ on the fee. Comparing proposals sets out what to read first, and the firms near you page explains how distance is priced.

Florida is one of the states that writes a reserve study into law. Under Fla. Stat. 718.112(2)(g) (SIRS); 718.112(2)(f) (reserves); 720.303(6) (HOA reserves), associations must have a study SIRS at least every 10 years; the rule applies to residential condominiums (and cooperatives) with buildings three habitable stories or higher; four-family dwellings exempt. HOAs under ch. 720 have no SIRS requirement.
The statute also says who may do the work: Visual inspection performed or verified by a Florida-licensed engineer or architect, or a CAI Reserve Specialist or APRA Professional Reserve Analyst. Ask a firm to confirm, in its proposal, that the person signing the report meets that test.
On disclosure: Within 45 days of receiving the SIRS the association must distribute it or notify owners it is available, and file a statement with the Division. Officers and directors must sign an affidavit acknowledging receipt.
HB 913 (ch. 2025-175) set the SIRS threshold at three habitable stories, raised the non-specified component threshold from $10,000 to $25,000 with CPI indexing, barred SIRS preparers from doing the repairs, and added line-of-credit and pooled-reserve options. 2026 session: SB 722 (Condominium Structural Integrity Reserve Studies) died in committee on March 13, 2026.
Existing unit-owner controlled associations had to complete a SIRS by December 31, 2025; where combined with a milestone inspection, no later than December 31, 2026. Owner-controlled associations may not waive or reduce SIRS reserves for budgets adopted on or after December 31, 2024.
General information checked against the statute, not legal advice. Governing documents can require more than the law does.
