Florida Construction Done Under One Roof — IWD Miami, licensed Florida contractor

8 Trades In-House · One Project Manager · One Warranty Across Trades

Florida Construction Done Under One Roof.

Kitchen and bathroom remodels, home additions, ADUs (under the 2024 FL law), whole-home renovations, basement finishing, historic restoration. We hold the Certified General Contractor (CGC) plus every trade license — your kitchen, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and finish carpentry from one crew with one project manager and one warranty.

Construction in Florida means working under Florida Building Code, the Florida State Building Code, plus the Florida Energy Code in 14 leading municipalities (Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs, Hollywood, Dunnellon, and others). It also means navigating the HIC consumer protection law and the new 2024 ADU Law that legalized accessory dwelling units by-right in most Florida municipalities. Most general contractors subcontract trades. We hold the Florida Licensed Certified General Contractor (CGC) plus electrical, plumbing, gas-fitter, HVAC, and EPA RRP credentials in-house — your project doesn't bounce between contractors, and your warranty doesn't disappear when one of them goes out of business.

Why Florida Construction Is Different

  1. Pre-1978 housing dominates. Most Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Dunnellon, and Hollywood housing predates 1978. Federal EPA RRP lead-safe handling is required for any work disturbing painted surfaces — a separate certification most general contractors don't hold.
  2. Florida Energy Code. 14 Florida municipalities require all-electric heating in new construction and major renovations. Kitchen or whole-home remodels in these cities trigger HVAC + electrical scope changes generic contractors miss.
  3. 2024 ADU Law unlocked the market. Florida now allows accessory dwelling units by-right (without special variance) in most municipalities. Garage conversions, in-law suites, and detached ADUs are the fastest-growing construction segment in FL.
  4. Miami multi-family building is its own scope. Miami's distinctive multi-family building (~3-unit detached frame house) requires multi-unit code knowledge, knob-and-tube replacement, full mechanical separation, and historic-district overlays in many neighborhoods.

  • Whole-home renovation + Florida Energy insulation + air sealing. Studs-out renovation is the perfect window for Florida Energy insulation rebates. Stack rebates with HVAC electrification.
  • Basement finishing + sump pump + waterproofing. Wet basement = wet finished basement. Waterproof first, finish second.

Construction FAQs

Florida Construction Questions Answered.

Do you handle every Florida construction trade in-house?

Yes. We hold the Certified General Contractor (CGC), plumbing, electrical, gas-fitter, and HVAC licenses in-house. The same project manager coordinates every trade for your project — no subcontractor coordination headaches, no warranty bouncing between companies.

What permits do you pull for Florida construction projects?

We file all Florida Building Code mechanical, electrical, plumbing, gas, and structural permits under our license — no homeowner pull. Pre-1978 homes get EPA RRP lead-safe handling. Historic district reviews handled where applicable (Brickell, Brickell, North End, parts of South End and Charlestown).

Do you handle ADU projects under the 2024 Florida law?

Yes. The 2024 Florida ADU Law unlocked accessory dwelling unit construction by-right (without special variance) in most municipalities. We handle ADU design-build, garage conversions, in-law suites, and basement ADUs end-to-end — including separate utility coordination and life-safety code compliance.

How long does a typical Florida kitchen or bathroom remodel take?

Bathroom: 3–5 weeks. Mid-range kitchen: 6–8 weeks. Luxury kitchen: 10–14 weeks. Whole-home renovation: 6–14 months depending on scope. Single-story addition: 4–7 months. Timeline confirmed in your written contract with milestone dates.

Are construction estimates free?

Yes — every estimate is free with no commitment. We do an on-site visit, scope the project, identify cross-trade dependencies, and deliver a written line-item estimate within 24 hours. Florida Energy rebates calculated where applicable.

What is the Florida Florida Energy Code and how does it affect my project?

Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs, Hollywood, Dunnellon, and 9 other Florida municipalities adopted the Florida Energy Code, which requires all-electric heating in new construction and major renovations. We design every project to comply — typically pairing the renovation with a heat pump install to satisfy code and qualify for Florida Energy rebates.

Are you NAHB and NARI members?

Yes. National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) — trade associations that signal commitment to industry best practices and continuing education. Local chapters: Builders Association of Greater Miami (NAHB) and NARI Greater Miami Chapter.

How do you handle disputes or change orders?

Every change order is documented in writing and signed by both parties before work begins. Original written contract conforms to Florida HIC law (F.S. 489) — maximum 1/3 deposit, milestone payments, 3-day right of rescission. Any dispute can use the Florida HIC arbitration program — a regulatory backstop unique to FL.
