Limbach Holdings, the 125-year-old building-systems firm founded in Pittsburgh, is officially putting its headquarters flag in Tampa. The company said Tuesday it will relocate its corporate base to the Gulf Coast city, where nearly 40 percent of its corporate employees already work, while keeping its operations active in the Pittsburgh region. To mark the move, Limbach is planning a ribbon-cutting next Wednesday and will present a donation to Feeding Tampa Bay.

The company detailed the shift in a press release distributed via Business Wire, noting that Tampa will now serve as its official headquarters. The move lines up with where much of the firm’s senior leadership and corporate staff already sit. According to the release, Limbach operates from roughly 21 offices and employs about 1,500 team members across the Eastern and Midwestern United States. Future SEC filings will list Tampa as the corporate headquarters.

Why Tampa?

Limbach opened its Tampa office in 2020 and says it has since tripled the size of its local team, with nearly 40 percent of its corporate workforce now based in the region. Craig Richard, president and CEO of the Tampa Bay Economic Development Council, has framed the decision as a show of confidence in the area’s talent base and business climate, according to Tampa Bay Business & Wealth.

Numbers and strategy

The relocation headlines a stretch of strong performance for the company. Limbach recently reported record fourth-quarter revenue of $186.9 million and full-year 2025 revenue of $646.8 million in its latest earnings release. Management says the company is moving more aggressively toward recurring service revenue and owner‑direct relationships and has authorized a $50 million share repurchase program as part of its capital priorities. The full financial results and commentary were published through Business Wire.

What comes next

Limbach plans to celebrate the headquarters designation with next Wednesday’s ribbon-cutting alongside the Tampa Bay EDC, where it will also present its donation to Feeding Tampa Bay. Company representatives say the firm’s project footprint will remain national and that Pittsburgh will continue to serve as a key operating region. Local coverage of the move, including the event details and the company’s timeline for updating corporate filings and public disclosures, was reported by Tampa Bay Business & Wealth.

What this means for Tampa

Limbach’s headquarters shift adds another name to Tampa’s growing roster of executive outposts, a trend that helped the metro land among the top five U.S. locations for headquarters relocations in a recent Site Selection survey. Economic-development officials say relocations like this can deepen the region’s pool of engineering and construction talent and support growth in healthcare, manufacturing and data‑center work.
