Owner and Founder Ben Talbert believes in hard work and honest communication.
As a veteran of the United States Coast Guard, owner of a yacht brokerage, builder of custom yachts, his love is for the water and the people of Florida is evident in all he does.
Rest assured as a Licensed General Contractor, our promise to you is to communicate and partner with you on any of the projects we do.
At Palmera Construction, our team is more than a crew — we’re craftsmen, problem-solvers, and neighbors committed to building Florida’s waterfront stronger and smarter. From seasoned marine specialists to skilled field leaders and office pros who keep every project running smoothly, each member of our team brings excellence, integrity, and pride to the work we do.
We believe in doing things right the first time, honoring our word, and leaving behind structures that last — and relationships that do, too.
We approach every project with diligence and care, pursuing work that is lasting, trustworthy, and worthy of respect.
We do what we say we will do, even when no one is watching. We take responsibility for our actions and decisions, building trust through honesty.
We value collaboration—within our crews and coworkers, with our clients, and within our community. Every person has worth and deserves to be treated with dignity.
We strive to be a steady and reliable presence in our community, contributing to its well-being through both our work and our character.
We build with care for Florida’s unique waterways, recognizing our responsibility to protect and preserve what’s been entrusted to us.
