Home Remodeling in Ponce-Davis & High Pines

One square mile, zero shortcuts.

Ponce-Davis and High Pines sit between Coral Gables and South Miami, one leafy unincorporated square mile where 1950s ranches share quiet streets with new estates on half-acre and acre lots. Owners here face a familiar fork: sell to the teardown market, or remodel a solid midcentury house into something that earns its address. We do the second one. PGX handles whole-home renovations off Red Road, Davis Road, and Ponce de Leon Road: opened floor plans, raised ceilings where structure allows, new systems throughout, and finishes that match the caliber of the street.

Because the neighborhood is unincorporated, permits do not go to Coral Gables or South Miami city hall; they go to Miami-Dade County's Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources, known as RER. That means county plan review, DERM involvement when work affects protected trees, and Miami-Dade product approvals for every impact window and door in this High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Some streets marketed as High Pines actually sit inside South Miami city limits, so we confirm jurisdiction from your folio before a single sheet is drawn. It sounds tedious. It is. It is also why our inspections pass.

A whole-home remodel at this level runs on discipline, not improvisation. PGX works from a fixed written scope, sequences trades so your family is not living in a job site longer than promised, and keeps a supervisor on your property every working day. The streets here are quiet and private; our crews, staging, and deliveries are managed to keep them that way. From first estimate through final inspection and warranty you deal with one accountable team, backed by 20-plus years building in South Florida and more than 150 remodels and additions delivered, all of them permitted.

What's included

Everything the remodel covers.

Full-gut renovations of Ponce-Davis and High Pines homes, from structural changes to final paint. One contract, one schedule, one licensed team responsible for all of it.

01

Layout and structural changes

Removing bearing walls, widening openings, and reworking 1950s floor plans into open living space, with engineering and county-approved structural drawings behind every cut.

02

Complete systems replacement

New electrical service, plumbing, and ductwork sized for how the house will actually run, because sixty-year-old systems should not power a brand-new renovation.

03

Impact glass, county inspected

Floor-to-ceiling glass and new entries carrying Miami-Dade product approvals, engineered for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone and installed under county inspection.

04

Finish carpentry and stone

Custom millwork, wide-plank flooring, and natural stone installed by trades accustomed to working inside occupied high-end homes without wrecking them.

05

County RER filings and inspections

We prepare, file, and walk every permit through Miami-Dade RER ourselves, with plan review, revisions, and inspections built into the schedule rather than bolted on.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Who issues building permits in Ponce-Davis?
Miami-Dade County. Ponce-Davis and most of High Pines are unincorporated, so permits run through the county's Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources rather than Coral Gables or South Miami city hall. Plans are filed through the county's online portal and the trades are inspected by county inspectors. A few streets on the High Pines edge sit inside South Miami limits, which changes the process, so we confirm jurisdiction from your folio before designing anything.
Should we remodel our house or is it a teardown?
Depends on the bones. Plenty of 1950s Ponce-Davis ranches have solid foundations, generous footprints, and rooflines worth keeping; a full remodel gets you a new house inside the old envelope with less disruption than rebuilding. Some homes genuinely are past saving, and we will tell you so. We walk the structure, look at what you want to end up with, and give you a straight answer either way. Honesty is free.
How long does a whole-home remodel take in Miami-Dade?
Plan on design and county permitting taking a few months before construction, then roughly six months to a year of building for a full gut, depending on scope and structural work. We put the schedule in writing with the contract and update it as inspections clear. What we do not do is quote a fantasy timeline to win the job and renegotiate it later.
Can we live in the house during the remodel?
For a true whole-home gut, we recommend moving out; you will be happier and the work goes faster. For phased remodels we can sometimes keep a wing livable, sealed off with real dust barriers and a working bathroom. We will tell you honestly which situation yours is during the walk-through, before you commit to anything.
What does a high-end whole-home remodel cost here?
Less than tearing down and rebuilding, more than new counters and a coat of paint. Serious whole-home remodels in this neighborhood are six-figure to seven-figure projects depending on size, structure, and finish level. We are not the cheapest bid and do not try to be; we price the full scope in writing so the number you sign is the number you pay, absent changes you approve.
