Local conditions

What to expect in Miami-Dade County

These are the things that most often shape a project here. For conditions common to all of South Florida, see service areas.

01

High-rise buildings and their rules

A large part of the county's housing is in towers. Building management typically requires a contractor package before access is granted: documentation, a reserved service elevator, a loading-dock time slot, protection for corridor floors, and fixed working hours with no noisy work outside them.

Get the package from your building first and send it with your request. Tell us what documentation management asks for; we confirm what we can provide before a visit is scheduled.

02

Older homes: plaster, terrazzo and openings that are not standard

Coral Gables, Miami Shores, Miami Beach and the older neighborhoods of Miami have many homes from the 1920s through the 1950s. Walls are often plaster instead of drywall, floors may be terrazzo or original hardwood, and door openings rarely match modern prehung sizes.

That changes the work. Plaster repairs behave differently from drywall patches and are assessed individually. For interior doors, we measure every opening before anything is ordered, because a standard unit may not fit without altering the opening. If a property carries a historic designation, ask your municipality whether any review applies to the work you plan.

03

Garages, carports and condominium parking

Private garages are less common in the denser parts of the county, where many homes have a carport or a garage that was converted to living space years ago. A converted garage is an interior floor, and we treat it as one.

A parking space in a condominium garage is normally association property. Coating it needs the association's written approval, and we do not coat shared parking areas.

04

Tight streets, limited parking, long carries

In Miami Beach, Brickell, downtown and similar areas, there may be nowhere to leave a work vehicle near the door, and materials often travel through a lobby and an elevator. That adds time to every working day and is one of the things the Moderate and Heavy complexity levels account for.

Tell us what parking and access look like at your address. We plan deliveries and crew arrival around it.

Permits and approvalsSome interior scopes require a permit or association approval. Requirements are set by the municipality where the property is located, or by the county for unincorporated areas, and depend on the specific work. We identify what applies to your project during the assessment; these pages are general information, not a statement of what your project requires.

Miami-Dade County FAQ

Local questions

My building asks contractors for documentation before work starts. How does that work?

Send us the building's contractor requirements with your estimate request. We review them and confirm what we can provide before a visit is scheduled, so there are no surprises on the first day.

Can you coat my assigned parking space in the building garage?

Only with the association's written approval, because the space is normally association property. Without it, we do not coat parking in shared garages.

My walls are plaster. Can you paint and repair them?

We paint plaster walls, and small defects are handled as preparation. Larger plaster repairs behave differently from drywall work, so we assess them in person and tell you what we can take on.
