What: Builder.Miami is a full-service general contractor with 15+ years of experience in residential and commercial projects across Miami. We specialize in code-compliant, hurricane-resistant, energy-efficient buildings that meet Miami-Dade County regulations.

Why: South Florida’s unique climate and strict building codes demand expert planning and execution. Compliance ensures safety, durability and client confidence, while sustainable design cuts operating costs and minimizes environmental impact.

How:

• Permitting Workflow: Pre-application consultation, plan submission, review & revisions, permit issuance (4–8 weeks), inspections & final approval.
• Hurricane Resilience: ASCE 7-16 wind-load calculations, reinforced trusses, impact-rated openings, continuous load path from roof to foundation.
• Thermal & Moisture Control: Cool-roof membranes, closed-cell spray foam, rainscreen assemblies, vapor barriers, controlled attic ventilation.
• Energy & Water Efficiency: Tier 1 solar panels, Low-E glazing, rainwater harvesting, low-flow fixtures—reducing energy use by up to 30% and water by 40%.
• Quality Assurance: ASTM & ICC checkpoints, third-party testing (concrete, soil, infiltration), digital punch-list with time-stamped photos.
• Project Management: Three-phase process (pre-construction, execution, close-out), weekly reports, milestone reviews, transparent change-orders.
• Warranty & Support: 12-month workmanship coverage, ongoing maintenance and fast resolution of any issues.

What If: Without rigorous permitting and engineering, projects risk delays, cost overruns and code violations. Skipping resilience and efficiency measures leads to higher repair bills, energy costs and occupant discomfort. Going further—integrating smart home controls, higher LEED certification or advanced water reclamation systems—can elevate performance, sustainability and asset value.
