AGK Construction & Roofing is a licensed Florida contractor that resolves building code violations for residential and commercial owners throughout Cutler Bay and Miami-Dade County. Cutler Bay is a young town — incorporated in 2005 — built largely from master-planned, HOA-governed communities like Lakes by the Bay, Saga Bay, and Cutler Ridge, layered over older South Dade housing that predates the town. That mix produces a specific violation profile: deed-restricted HOA properties where work was done without both town and association approval, and older homes carrying unpermitted repairs from long before incorporation.
Five active Florida licenses — roofing, general construction, plumbing, glass & glazing, and mechanical (HVAC) — let AGK resolve every violation type on a Cutler Bay property under one roof, from the free inspection through the final town sign-off.
Cutler Bay Code Compliance divides the town into three enforcement zones, and confirmed violations go before the town's Special Magistrate — with hearings held monthly at Town Hall. Once fines are ordered they run daily until the case is closed, then record as a lien in Miami-Dade County against your property. Call AGK at (954) 807-3455 for a free on-site inspection, generally within 24 to 48 hours.

Two Cutler Bay specifics catch owners off guard. First, the town's online permit search only covers records from August 1, 2010 forward — anything before that (including work done under Miami-Dade County before the town took over its own building services) requires calling the Building Department directly at (305) 234-4193. Second, lien verification runs through the Town Clerk's office separately from permit searches, and because most of Cutler Bay is deed-restricted, an HOA approval is frequently required in addition to the town permit before work can proceed.
Because Cutler Bay is a newer town built on older South Dade land, its violations split into two groups: unpermitted work on the pre-incorporation homes, and HOA-community projects done without proper town and association sign-off. Add the pre-2010 permit records that don't appear online, and open cases surface constantly — usually at sale.
In Cutler Bay, the violation notices that come up most are for:
| Violation Type | Initial Citation | Daily Fine Risk | Lien Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unpermitted Construction / Stop-Work Order | $500+ | Builds after the Special Magistrate hearing | Yes — recorded on the property |
| Addition or Conversion Without Permit | $500+ | By Special Magistrate order | Yes — stops sale & refinance |
| Open or Expired Permit | Varies | Continues until closed | Yes |
| Mechanical / HVAC Without Permit | $500+ | By Special Magistrate order | Yes |
| Roofing or Windows Below HVHZ | Varies | By Special Magistrate order | Yes |
Almost nobody goes looking for an old permit — it finds them, usually through a title search in the middle of a deal. Two terms matter here. "Open" means the work wrapped up but no one ever called the final inspection, leaving the record unfinished. "Expired" means the permit lapsed after the Florida Building Code's general 180-day period of inactivity. In both scenarios the unresolved permit follows the deed, reappearing at each sale, refinance, and insurance review until it is properly closed out.
Cutler Bay has an added wrinkle: because the town only took over its own building services in the mid-2000s, and its online permit search starts at August 1, 2010, older open permits often sit invisible in the pre-2010 county-era records until a title company digs them up.
AGK closes out open and expired permits across all five licensed trades — see the full Open Permit Closure service, or call (954) 807-3455 and we'll pull the property's entire record first, pre-2010 included.
Cutler Bay's HOA communities move quickly in resale, and both the town and the associations scrutinize property condition at transfer. Open violations, expired permits, and unpermitted work rank among the leading reasons Cutler Bay deals fall apart:
AGK works alongside Cutler Bay agents and closing attorneys to clear violations against short timelines. If a closing date is set, call (954) 807-3455 and we'll prioritize the case.
AGK resolves Cutler Bay violations without the runaround — free inspection within 24 to 48 hours, one complete filing, inspections handled through to closure.

Cutler Bay Building Code Violations — Common Questions
Straight answers for Cutler Bay property owners dealing with a code case — the Town's Building Division and Code Compliance, pre-2010 permit records, HOA overlap, liens, and timelines.
Yes — that's a core reason owners call us. AGK carries five active Florida licenses: Roofing (CCC-1335099), General Contractor (CGC-1534839), Plumbing (CFC-1434412), Glass & Glazing (SCC-131153361), and Mechanical (CMC-1251836). We can permit, perform, and pass inspection on all of them under one contract.
For a Cutler Bay property carrying several violations at once — common on the older pre-incorporation homes — that's one contractor and one coordinated filing rather than four or five trades working on separate clocks.
The Town of Cutler Bay runs its own Building Division and Code Compliance out of Town Hall in the Town Center at 10720 Caribbean Blvd. Building permits and inspections are handled by the Building Division in Suite 110 (305-234-4193), with building services provided under contract by CAP Government, Inc. Code Compliance operates from Suite 230 (305-234-4262, after-hours hotline 786-573-5515) and divides the town into three enforcement zones. Confirmed violations go before the town's Special Magistrate. Miami-Dade County governs the underlying building code and holds recorded liens.
AGK handles every filing across the town, HOA, and county in the correct sequence, so you never deal with the government directly.
Because the Town of Cutler Bay's online permit search only covers records from August 1, 2010 forward. The town is relatively young — incorporated in 2005 — and permits issued before August 2010, including work done under Miami-Dade County before the town took over its own building services, are not in the online system. For those, the Building Department has to be contacted directly at (305) 234-4193.
This is exactly where old open permits hide until a sale. AGK pulls the complete permit, violation, and lien history — pre-2010 records included — during the free consultation, so nothing surfaces later at closing. Call (954) 807-3455.
Yes. After a violation is confirmed before the town's Special Magistrate, daily fines are ordered and keep accruing until the case is officially closed. Beyond a certain point they're recorded as a lien in Miami-Dade County records — which then shows in every title search and blocks any sale or refinance until cleared. In Cutler Bay, lien verification runs through the Town Clerk's office, separately from permit searches.
The longer it sits, the larger it grows. Since AGK's inspection and written assessment cost nothing, the cheapest day to start is today. Call (954) 807-3455.
Very likely, yes. Most of Cutler Bay is made up of deed-restricted, HOA-governed communities like Lakes by the Bay, Saga Bay, and Cutler Ridge. Even when the town will issue a permit without an HOA approval letter, your deed restrictions may still require association sign-off before the project can proceed — and doing the work without it can create its own compliance problem on top of the town violation.
AGK handles both tracks: we prepare the town permit package and coordinate the HOA architectural approval, so the project clears both the government and the association. Call (954) 807-3455.
Yes. Code violations and open permits belong to the property, not the person who created them, and they pass with the deed. As today's owner, bringing the property into compliance — including any fines already accruing — is your responsibility. In Cutler Bay this often traces back to pre-2010 work that never appeared on the online record.
AGK manages the full resolution under one contract: inspecting to catch every unpermitted item, filing the after-the-fact permits, completing the corrections, and securing final sign-off — so you don't have to face the town alone.
Yes. Under the Florida Building Code, the entire Miami-Dade County — Cutler Bay included — sits within the High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), the strictest wind standard in the country. Roofing systems, windows, and exterior doors all need HVHZ product approvals and must pass inspection to that standard.
Products that don't comply fail inspection, which is how many roofing and window violations start in the first place. AGK uses only HVHZ-approved products on Cutler Bay jobs and includes the approval documentation with each permit.
AGK serves all of Cutler Bay and Miami-Dade County and can generally schedule a free on-site inspection within 24 to 48 hours. For pressing cases — a stop-work order, an upcoming Special Magistrate hearing, a closing deadline, or fast-mounting daily fines — call (954) 807-3455 and we'll prioritize you right away.
With code cases, time is money — the sooner the work starts, the sooner the case is officially closed.
