Miami's median home was built in 1979, and 68% of its homes are in multi-unit buildings. From Morningside houses to Brickell condos, we install Miami-Dade NOA impact windows and file the City of Miami permit for you.
Miami's housing runs from condo towers to houses in designated historic districts like Morningside, Buena Vista East, and Palm Grove. About two out of three homes are in multi-unit buildings. Each type needs a different plan, from upper-floor condo openings to a certificate of appropriateness on a designated house.
The City of Miami's window and door checklist is specific. Under the express review path, new units must fit the existing frame or rough opening, or the job becomes a remodeling permit. The cover sheet must state that the permit covers only the windows and doors. Every job gets a buck inspection before the final. We plan for all of it before we order.
In the City of Miami, even a window replacement on a historically designated property needs a certificate of appropriateness. Minor work is usually reviewed by staff. Designated districts include Morningside, Buena Vista East, Palm Grove, MiMo/BiBo, Spring Garden, and Riverview.
