Since 1985 Mike Hickman and Hickman Homes have been building custom homes
throughout Central Florida. These homes reflect the tradition of fine home
building.
In addition to building these
distinctively better homes on sites throughout Polk County, Hickman Homes is
creating neighborhoods. Our upcoming work in Lakeland includes
"Heritage Park, a traditional neighborhood with a 7-acre community park and
"Canopy Oaks" an exclusive enclave of just 20 home sites featuring grandfather
oaks. Also look for us at "Tuscany Woods" in Auburndale and at "Morgan
Creek Preserve" and "Grandefield at Poley Creek"; planned communities that have
those extra special amenities. These neighborhoods and others enable
us to showcase the charm and uniqueness of the homes we build. These are
neighborhoods where you can express your own personality in the home that you
live in and enjoy a close knit community for you and your family.

I had many offers on my home and land
and Mike stood out as the builder who had integrity. His reputation as a
fair and honest man to deal with was 100% true. He made the task of
selling my property for development an easy one. In hindsight, I chose the
person who not only wants to build excellent houses, but who wants to build a
neighborhood. Even my neighbors were happy that Hickman Homes' were being
built by them since they knew they would be quality.
Roger Meadows
"We have a beautiful home and a great memory about building our home
thanks to you and your staff. I would recommend you to anyone I know that’s
wanting to build."
Mr. & Mrs. Chris Duffey
"We want to tell you thank you from the bottom of our hearts for our
beautiful home. It is truly everything we dreamed it would be and then some. We
tell anyone we have the opportunity to how pleased we have been with the entire
experience and encourage them to contact you."
Keith & Debbi Damkjer
"What impressed me the most about Mike, was that from the very
beginning, he stood out as being the one builder who would work the hardest to
build our home, the way we wanted it. He never once tried to change our minds
or make decisions for us. In the end, your house is only as good as the workers
who built it. Mike’s crews have been together a long time … They are good at
what they do."
Larry Baker
Mike builds a good solid home, from the foundation up … We are very happy
with our home … When planning a purchase that you expect to last the rest of
your life, you need to choose a quality builder such as Mike.
