AfterRemodeling Company in Miami Gardens, FL
Home remodeling in Miami Gardens runs into a specific set of challenges you won’t find in newer Florida cities: most houses here are single-story CBS structures built between the late 1950s and mid-1970s, many with flat roofs, jalousie windows, and carport slabs that predate current hurricane codes. We’re Penhallow Remodeling, and we specialize in bringing these older suburban tracts up to modern standards while keeping the job on budget and on paper. Call us at (936) 259-2607 to schedule your free estimate.
Why Miami Gardens Homes Are Different
Miami Gardens incorporated only in 2003 from unincorporated Miami-Dade County land, which means many homes carry permits and inspection records filed under old county systems that don’t automatically transfer to the city’s building department. When we pull a permit for your project, we routinely discover paper-trail gaps that require retroactive inspections before new work can begin. The housing stock itself is remarkably uniform: affordable suburban tracts, notably Carol City in the early 1960s, built as Concrete Block Structure homes with flat or low-slope roofs and single-pane aluminum windows.
The local geography compounds everything. Miami Gardens sits on a flat, low-lying limestone shelf where the water table sits just below the surface, and hurricane-season rainfall ponds in yards and overwhelms flat-roof drainage systems. Every product we install must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, the strictest product-approval standard in the country, which limits material choices compared to Broward County just to the north. These conditions define the renovation work we do here: wind-mitigation retrofits, roof drainage improvements, and bringing legacy construction into compliance with current Florida Building Code.
Our Main Miami Gardens Services
Most Miami Gardens homeowners who call us are looking at one of three projects: a full General Contractor in Miami Gardens relationship for major structural work, a targeted Bathroom Remodeling in Miami Gardens to update aging wet rooms, or a complete Kitchen Remodeling in Miami Gardens to replace original cabinetry and layouts designed for a different era of living.
General Contractor in Miami Gardens
As your general contractor, we coordinate the full scope of structural and systems work that these older CBS homes often need: roof-to-foundation assessments, wind-mitigation retrofits, electrical service upgrades from original 100-amp panels, and bringing county-permitted additions into Miami Gardens’s current code compliance. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and manage the trade contractors so you don’t have to chase down five different crews. Every project starts with a written price and a written timeline before any demolition begins.
Bathroom Remodeling in Miami Gardens
Bathrooms in these 1960s and 1970s tracts were built small, with cast-iron tubs, single-lead shower valves, and no exhaust ventilation. We strip to the studs, install cement board substrate (the moisture-resistant layer behind your tile), upgrade plumbing to copper or PEX, and fit modern fixtures that meet Miami-Dade NOA standards for wind-borne debris resistance if windows are involved. Our Bathroom Remodeling in Miami Gardens crews are background-checked and uniformed, and every job carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.
Kitchen Remodeling in Miami Gardens
Original kitchens in Carol City and similar tracts were designed for one cook, with minimal counter space and no island. We reconfigure layouts for open-plan living, install KraftMaid or Wellborn cabinetry with soft-close hardware, and specify Cambria, Silestone, or Caesarstone countertops that stand up to Miami’s humidity. Our Kitchen Remodeling in Miami Gardens includes a written price before work starts and a defined arrival window for every phase, per The Kingswell Way.

Home Remodeling in Miami Gardens
Whole-home remodeling in Miami Gardens means working with the realities of pre-Andrew construction: flat roofs that pond water, jalousie windows that leak wind and rain, electrical panels that won’t handle modern loads, and permit histories scattered between Miami-Dade County archives and Miami Gardens’s newer building department. We handle the research, the code compliance, and the physical rebuild as your single point of accountability. Our Home Remodeling process starts with a structural and systems assessment, followed by a written line-item quote and a guaranteed arrival window for every phase of work.
Whole House Remodel
Signs you need it
Your home still has original aluminum single-pane windows, a flat roof past 20 years, an electrical panel under 150 amps, or county permits that don’t appear in Miami Gardens’s system.

A whole house remodel typically runs $53,100 – $153,400 depending on whether we’re reconfiguring walls, replacing the roof structure, and upgrading all systems to current Florida Building Code.
How we do it
We start with a permit-history search across county and city records, then phase the work so you’re never without a functional kitchen and bath, with a dedicated project manager coordinating inspections at each stage.

How long does a whole house remodel take in Miami Gardens?
Most whole house remodels in Miami Gardens take 4 – 8 months, with the first 2 – 4 weeks dedicated to permit research and resolution of any county-to-city record gaps. We build this timeline into your written schedule before work starts. Call (936) 259-2607 for a project-specific estimate.
Will I need to move out during a home remodel?
Not necessarily. We phase the work so you retain a functional kitchen and bathroom, though whole-house electrical or roof replacement may require 3 – 7 day windows where power or weather protection is limited. We discuss this explicitly in your pre-construction meeting and written timeline.

Prices in Miami Gardens run higher than national averages for two reasons: Miami-Dade NOA product requirements limit supplier options, and the flat, low-lying terrain often requires enhanced drainage and moisture-barrier work that inland markets don’t face. Whatever your project, you receive a written price before any work starts, per The Kingswell Way, and that number doesn’t change unless you add scope.

FAQs About Remodeling Company in Miami Gardens
We pull permits through the City of Miami Gardens building department for all work within city limits, but we first research Miami-Dade County records to identify any legacy permits or inspections that need reconciliation. This step prevents delays mid-project and is included in our standard pre-construction process.
If your home was built before 2003 or has had major work done before incorporation, there’s a reasonable chance some permits exist only in county archives. We run this search as part of our initial assessment, and we handle any retroactive inspections required to bring your property into compliance before new work begins.
Yes. We submit architectural packages, attend HOA meetings when required, and coordinate approval timelines with your board before scheduling demolition or material delivery. Our project managers have worked with most of the larger Miami Gardens associations and understand their specific documentation requirements.

- Simone Clarke"Gutted and redid the master bath. They gave me a schedule and actually stuck to it. Any time there was a choice to make they called me instead of guessing. Love the result."
