Our Roofing & Code Violation Services in South Florida

Our Two Core Services — Roofing & Code Violations

AGK Construction & Roofing is built around two core service areas that South Florida property owners need most. Whether you are dealing with a damaged roof or a code violation notice generating daily fines, our licensed team handles both — and everything in between.

Why South Florida Properties Get Code Violations

Miami-Dade and Broward County have some of the most demanding building enforcement in the United States — and for good reason. Much of the region's housing stock was built between the 1950s and 1990s, decades during which additions, garage conversions, enclosed patios, and entire second units were frequently built without permits. When those properties change hands today, the unpermitted work surfaces in title searches and triggers violations the new owner inherits.

On top of that, South Florida sits in the most hurricane-exposed corridor in the country, so the Florida Building Code holds roofing, windows, and doors to the strictest wind standards in the state. A re-roof or window swap done without the right permits and product approvals isn't just unpermitted — it's a code violation that fails inspection. And since the 2021 Surfside collapse, recertification enforcement across both counties has intensified, with building departments actively pursuing aging condos and commercial structures that have fallen behind on their milestone inspections. The result is a steady stream of violation notices, daily fines, and recorded liens that catch owners off guard — usually at the worst possible moment, right before a sale or refinance.

All Services — One Licensed General Contractor

Because AGK holds five active Florida contractor licenses, we handle virtually any construction or violation need on your property without you hiring multiple contractors:

Roofing & Construction in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone

Both Miami-Dade and Broward County are designated entirely as the High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) under the Florida Building Code — the most stringent wind-resistance standard in the state, applied to only these two counties. That single fact changes how every roof, window, and exterior door on your property must be built and permitted.

In the HVHZ, roofing systems, impact windows, and doors cannot simply carry a standard Florida Product Approval — they must be specifically HVHZ-rated, backed by a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) or a Broward County Product Approval. Products without that designation fail inspection, and installing them is itself a code violation. This is exactly where many homeowners get caught: a contractor installs a roof or windows that look fine but lack HVHZ approval, the work fails inspection, and the property is left with an open violation. AGK installs only HVHZ-approved, NOA-backed materials on every Miami-Dade and Broward project and verifies all product approvals before any work begins — so your roof and windows pass on the first inspection and stay compliant for the life of the building.

How AGK Works — From First Call to Final Sign-Off

Whether you need a new roof or a code violation closed, our process is the same — fast, transparent, and fully managed by our licensed team so you never deal with the building department yourself.

Building Code Violations We Resolve Across South Florida

AGK is one of the few South Florida contractors holding five active licenses — allowing us to resolve roofing, plumbing, mechanical, structural, and glazing violations on the same property under one contract.

• Roofing violations — unpermitted roof work, failed inspections, non-HVHZ materials
• Plumbing violations — unpermitted installations, non-code compliant systems
• Mechanical violations — HVAC systems and ductwork installed without permits (CMC-1251836)
• Impact window & door violations — non-HVHZ rated products, missing permits
• Glass & glazing violations — storefronts, curtain walls, sliding doors
• Structural violations — unpermitted additions, garage conversions, room enclosures
• After the fact permits for any previously completed unpermitted work
• Open permit closure from prior contractors or previous owners
• Stop work order resolution with city or county building departments
• Code enforcement lien resolution — stop fines, clear the lien
• Pre-closing violation resolution for property sales and refinancing

Trusted by Homeowners, Investors & Real Estate Professionals

Over 11+ years and 500+ completed projects across South Florida, AGK Construction & Roofing has become a contractor that property owners, real estate agents, and closing attorneys call when a deadline is real and the work has to be done right. We routinely step in on pre-closing emergencies — resolving open permits and violations on tight timelines so a sale can fund — and we work directly with adjusters on storm and hail roof claims to make sure nothing is left on the table.

From single-family homeowners in North Beach to condo associations on the water and investors managing portfolios across both counties, our clients come back — and refer us — because we do exactly what we say: licensed, permitted, inspected, and closed, with full documentation in hand at the end.

Selling a South Florida Property With Open Violations or Permits?

This is one of the most urgent — and most common — situations AGK handles. Open code violations, expired permits, and unpermitted work surface in almost every title search on older Miami-Dade and Broward properties, and they have a way of appearing at the worst possible moment: right as a sale is about to close. When a title search uncovers open violations or permits on your property, the deal stalls fast:

• The buyer's lender typically will not fund until every violation is resolved
• Title insurance cannot be issued on a property with recorded code liens
• Buyers demand price reductions to offset the cost and risk of open work
• The closing date gets pushed back — sometimes weeks, sometimes losing the buyer entirely
• In condo and HOA transactions, the association may block the transfer on its own

AGK works directly with South Florida real estate agents, sellers, and closing attorneys to clear violations on tight timelines. We pull the full permit and violation history for the property, close out open permits, resolve the underlying violations, and deliver the documentation your title company needs. If you have a closing date approaching, call (954) 807-3455 — we prioritize pre-closing cases. Start with our guides to the pre-sale Certificate of Use, closing open permits, and removing a code violation lien before you list.
