Remodeling in Miami Beach

On Miami Beach the question is rarely what you want to build. It is what the district, the board and the building will allow.

Miami Beach

What approval looks like here

Large parts of Miami Beach sit inside historic preservation districts, where exterior changes are reviewed against the character of the district. On top of that, most of the work we do here is inside condominium towers, which means a second approval that has nothing to do with the city: the association's, with its own rules on work hours, elevator access and insurance. The two run in parallel and both have to be resolved before demolition starts.

What we work on

Mostly oceanfront condos and historic properties

  • Art Deco and MiMo buildings under preservation review
  • Oceanfront condominium units
  • Single-family homes on the islands

Questions we get asked here

  • Is my property in a historic district?

    Large parts of Miami Beach are. It can be checked before design begins, and it changes what is possible on the exterior — so it belongs at the start of the conversation, not at permit time.

  • Can I replace the windows in a historic building?

    Often yes, but the product and its profile may be reviewed. That decision belongs in design, not at the moment of ordering, because the wrong specification means reordering.

  • Do I need the association's approval as well as the city's?

    In a tower, yes. The two run on separate calendars and neither waits for the other.

  • Are there months when the building will not allow work?

    Many oceanfront associations restrict construction during the winter season. We confirm your building's rule before committing to a schedule, because it can move a start date by months.
