Residential Services
Expired Permits
Did your home sale hit a roadblock due to an expired permit? We can reopen, resolve, and close expired permits anywhere in Florida. Recent updates to Florida Bar of Realtors contracts (2010) require permit searches before closing, making this service essential for both buyers and sellers. We help homeowners in Hialeah, Hollywood, Boca Raton, Coral Springs, and Miami Gardens stop fines and clear titles fast.
Door, Window & Shutter Permits
One of Florida’s most common code violations involves unpermitted window and door installations. We help homeowners from Kendall to Deerfield Beach to Delray Beach legalize retrofits and ensure compliance with Miami-Dade HVHZ standards. Stay protected, make sure your home is hurricane-ready and code compliant.
Concealed Work / As-Built Certificate
We’re Florida’s leader in As-Built Work and Certification. Using state-of-the-art infrared cameras and concrete scanning tools, we inspect behind walls and foundations without demolition. Our As-Built Certifications are accepted in all jurisdictions across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties.
Legalization of Additions
If your home or commercial property has unpermitted additions, our engineers and land surveyors produce the plans, structural calculations, and zoning documents required for legalization. We handle this process regularly in Coral Gables, Plantation, and Boca Raton, ensuring smooth and permanent compliance.
Unsafe Structures
If your property has been declared UNSAFE, we can help you regain access and reoccupy your building quickly. We work directly with local Building Officials in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach to prepare the required engineering evaluations, reports, and repair plans.

Railing, Stair & Balcony Inspections

We perform certified inspections and reports for properties in Miami Beach, Hollywood Beach, Pompano Beach, Deerfield Beach, Delray Beach, and West Palm Beach.
Sidewalk Café Permits
If your restaurant or café has outdoor seating, you must comply with city regulations for public-right-of-way use. We help business owners in Brickell, Downtown Fort Lauderdale, and Clematis Street in West Palm Beach legalize outdoor seating areas quickly.

What Clients Say
Ordering process was easy and fast. Received approval for my permits in no time at all!

Project Manager
My permit was expired and the Florida Builders Engineers team helped me stop fines without any complications.

Project Manager
The Florida Builders Engineers team was very knowledgeable and made me aware that we should submit a Certificate of Balcony Inspection every few years. I had no idea! Would recommend for any one who doesn't know a lot about permits or is new to construction.
