Whole-home remodels for the Hillsboro Mile.

Hillsboro Beach is three and a bit miles of barrier island with a single road down the middle, and fewer than two thousand residents on the last census. The housing splits cleanly: low-rise oceanfront condominiums like Hillsboro Island House, Opal Towers and the Sea Club, and the estate lots of Hillsboro Mile that run from the sand across A1A to a private dock on the Intracoastal. Most of that stock went up between the 1950s and the 1980s. Owners here rarely want a different house. They want this one, gutted to the block and rebuilt around modern mechanical systems.

The Town of Hillsboro Beach Building Department reviews and permits the work, enforcing the codes adopted by the Florida Building Commission and administered by the Broward County Board of Rules and Appeals. Broward sits inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every window, door and roof assembly needs a product approval valid for HVHZ conditions. Add the town's turtle-lighting ordinance, which limits ocean-facing glass to a light transmittance of forty-five percent or less, and your impact glass has two specifications to satisfy instead of one. Flood elevation and the fifty-percent substantial-improvement threshold shape anything close to a full gut.

Behind the estimate sit twenty-plus years of South Florida building and more than 150 remodels and additions, all permitted and inspected. On a street this narrow, how a crew behaves matters as much as what it builds: deliveries scheduled so A1A keeps moving, a tidy site at the end of every day, and a supervisor on the job rather than on the phone. Your scope is fixed in writing before demolition. One team carries the work from estimate through final inspection and warranty, which means one number to call and nobody to blame but us.
