Coconut Creek, FL · North Broward · Roofing · Structural · Plumbing · Glazing · Mechanical
Coconut Creek grew up later than most of Broward. Incorporated in 1967 and built out mainly in the 1980s and '90s, the "Butterfly Capital of the World" is now a city of over 57,000 people — and its first-generation roofs, windows, and AC systems are reaching replacement age all at once. That's exactly when unpermitted work happens: a quick re-roof, a patio enclosed over a weekend, a condo bathroom redone without a plumbing permit. A few years later it shows up as a violation notice, or as an open permit in a buyer's title search.
AGK Construction & Roofing fixes those problems for Coconut Creek owners — from Wynmoor Village condos to single-family homes off Lyons Road and the shopping centers along Sample and Wiles. Five active Florida licenses (roofing, general, plumbing, glass & glazing, and mechanical) mean one contractor can take a Coconut Creek case from the first inspection to the City's final sign-off.
Two things catch Coconut Creek owners off guard: the Building Division runs a four-day week, so Friday inspections aren't an option, and permits here go through the City — not Broward County. AGK files through ePermits under our own licenses and schedules around the City's calendar. Want us to pull your property's records? Call (954) 807-3455 — the records review is part of every free inspection.
Cases that aren't corrected go before the City's Special Magistrate. If the violation is confirmed, the magistrate can set a daily fine, and fines left unpaid can be recorded against the property. In Wynmoor and the city's other resale-heavy communities, these cases usually come to light when a unit goes under contract — the worst possible time. Book a free on-site inspection at (954) 807-3455; we typically come out within 24 to 48 hours.
Most Coconut Creek cases trace back to work done between owners — a previous owner's addition, a contractor who never called the final, an AC swapped without a mechanical permit. In the 55+ communities, there's an extra layer: association approval and a City permit are two different things, and owners often get one but not the other. The notices we see most in Coconut Creek involve:
Owners in managed communities sometimes assume the association is handling compliance. It usually isn't — the case is against the unit or lot owner. Here's how the exposure typically looks:
| Issue | How It Starts | Fine Exposure | Lien Exposure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Building Without a Permit / Stop-Work | Notice of Violation; work halted | Daily amount set by the Special Magistrate | Can be recorded on the property |
| Unpermitted Enclosure or Addition | Notice of Violation | Set at hearing if not corrected | Possible after the compliance date |
| Expired / Never-Finaled Permit | Found in records or at sale | Can continue until closed | Possible |
| AC Installed Without a Mechanical Permit | Notice of Violation | Set by Special Magistrate | Possible |
| Roof or Windows Without HVHZ Approval | Varies | Set by Special Magistrate | Possible |
| 55+ / HOA Community Unit Violations | Notice of Violation | Can accrue daily until corrected | Possible — plus association issues |
From high-rise-free condo villages to single-family streets and strip centers, AGK handles Coconut Creek violations across every property type in the city.
Wynmoor Village is one of the largest active adult communities in Broward, and Coconut Creek has many other managed communities like it. Replacing windows, re-roofing, enclosing a patio, or changing a unit's plumbing usually needs two separate approvals: one from the association, and a building permit from the City of Coconut Creek.
The two mistakes we see most: doing association-approved work with no City permit, and pulling a City permit but never finishing the inspections. AGK runs the City permit and works alongside your association's process, so the work is approved on both sides before we close the file.
The violations Coconut Creek issues usually fall into a handful of trades. AGK holds the Florida license for each one, so the permits are pulled under our own licenses:
Here's how a typical Coconut Creek case moves from notice to closed:
Units in Wynmoor and Coconut Creek's other communities change hands often, and title searches regularly turn up old permits and open cases. When that happens mid-deal:
The easiest fix is to check before you list. AGK works with Coconut Creek agents and closing attorneys on short deadlines — if you already have a closing date, call (954) 807-3455 and tell us the date.
One call covers it: free walk-through, records pull, ePermits filing, corrective work, and inspections through final with the City of Coconut Creek.

Coconut Creek Code Violations — Questions We Hear Most
Straight answers about the Coconut Creek Building Division, Wynmoor and other 55+ communities, permits, fines, and selling with an open case.
The Building Division is part of the City's Sustainable Development department at the Coconut Creek Government Center, 4800 West Copans Road, Coconut Creek, FL 33063 — (954) 973-6750, ebuilding@coconutcreek.gov. It's open Monday through Thursday and closed on Fridays. Contractors submit permits online through the City's ePermits portal; owner-builders apply in person.
To see a property's permit history or open cases, contact the Building Division, and check Broward County's official records for anything recorded against the property. AGK pulls these records as part of every free inspection.
If the property is inside Coconut Creek city limits, the City handles it — its own Building Division issues permits and inspections, and its own Code Compliance and Special Magistrate process handles violations. Broward County's building office isn't involved for properties inside the city.
A few addresses near the city line can be confusing. AGK confirms the jurisdiction from the property record before anything is filed.
Usually not. Association approval covers the community's rules; a City of Coconut Creek building permit covers the building code. Window and slider replacements, patio enclosures, re-roofs, and plumbing changes generally need both — and the City permit isn't finished until the final inspection passes.
We see the same two problems in Wynmoor and Coconut Creek's other 55+ communities again and again: approved work with no City permit, and City permits that were opened but never finaled. AGK handles the City side and works with your association's process at the same time.
Generally, yes. Open permits and code cases stay with the property, so the current owner is usually the one who has to resolve them — even when a previous owner or their contractor did the work. Buyers in Coconut Creek's resale-heavy communities often find this out after closing.
AGK identifies every open item on the address, files after-the-fact or corrective permits with the City, completes the corrections, coordinates with your association if needed, and follows the inspections through final.
If the violation isn't corrected by the compliance date, the case can go to a Special Magistrate hearing. The magistrate can order a daily fine that keeps running until the property is brought into compliance, and unpaid fines can be recorded as a lien. A recorded lien can hold up a sale or refinance until it's resolved.
Starting the corrective permit before the hearing date often helps. AGK's inspection and written estimate are free, so call (954) 807-3455 as soon as the notice arrives.
It can. Insurers often review roof age, permit history, and wind mitigation details when writing or renewing a policy, and Citizens Property Insurance generally requires roofing to meet permit and inspection standards. Missing permits can also limit wind mitigation credits.
Closing the permit and keeping the inspection records on file puts you in a stronger position at renewal. AGK provides the permit card, inspection results, and product approvals once the permit is closed.
Often, yes — it depends on what the case requires. Lenders and title companies usually want open violations and permits resolved before closing, so the timeline matters. Some cases only need a final inspection; others need corrective work and a new permit.
Send us the title search and your closing date. AGK prioritizes pre-closing cases and plans the work around the City's Monday–Thursday inspection schedule. Call (954) 807-3455.
