Hollywood FL Building Code Violation Contractor

Serving Hollywood, FL 33019 · 33020 · 33021 · 33023 · 5 Active FL Licenses

Licensed · Permitted · Inspected · Violation Closed

AGK Construction & Roofing is a licensed general contractor serving Hollywood, Florida property owners who need building code violations resolved quickly and professionally. Hollywood is one of Broward County's largest cities, with its own Building, Licensing & Permitting Division at 2600 Hollywood Boulevard handling all permits and code violations within city limits — separate from Broward County. With 11+ years working with building departments across Broward and Miami-Dade, AGK knows exactly how to navigate Hollywood's specific permitting environment and get your violation closed fast.

We hold five active Florida contractor licenses — roofing, general construction, plumbing, glass & glazing, and mechanical — allowing us to resolve virtually every violation type on your Hollywood property under one contract, one permit process, and one coordinated inspection schedule.

⚠️ Hollywood FL Violations — Fines Accumulate Daily. Liens Block Your Closing.

The City of Hollywood Code Enforcement Division actively pursues unresolved building violations through the Special Magistrate process. Daily fines accumulate with no cap until the violation is officially closed — and all fines become recorded liens on your property title.

  • Citations start at $250–$500 · daily fines accumulate after Special Magistrate ruling
  • Vacation rental BTR revocation cuts off rental income on top of daily fines
  • Liens block all sales, refinancing, and equity loans
  • Open violations surface in every title search — Hollywood's active market means deals die fast
  • Stop-work orders prevent any future permitted work on the property

How to Do a Code Violation Search in Hollywood FL

The City of Hollywood provides a free public code violation search tool where anyone can check a Hollywood property for open code enforcement cases — buyers do it before making offers, title companies do it before every closing, and smart owners do it before listing. Here is how to check your property:

1
Open the City of Hollywood Code Violation Search Portal
Go to apps.hollywoodfl.org/ViolationSearch and search by property address. The system displays code enforcement cases entered since May 2007, including case status and violation details.
2
Check for Older Violations, Open Permits & Recorded Liens
The online search does not show everything — older violations may exist on some properties, open and expired permits live in the building department's permit system, and recorded liens sit in county records. The City of Hollywood also offers an official records search for outstanding liens and violations on a property. Before a sale or refinance, a complete records check across all three is essential.
3
Found a Violation on Your Property? Call AGK Before the Hearing
If your search turns up an open case, don't wait for the Special Magistrate hearing — that's when daily fines start. AGK pulls the complete violation and permit history for your address as part of our free inspection, then resolves every item. Call (954) 807-3455.
City of Hollywood Building & Code Compliance: 2600 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, FL 33020 · Code Compliance: (954) 921-3061 · Building Division: (954) 921-3335. AGK deals with the City of Hollywood Building Department directly on your behalf — you never have to call them yourself.

Understanding Your Hollywood Violation — Common Case Types

Most Hollywood violation cases come down to one of the situations below. Each has its own process through the City of Hollywood Building Department and its own path to getting the case officially closed. Tap any topic to learn how it works:

After-the-Fact Permits

When work was already built without a permit — a carport conversion, an enclosed porch, an addition on an older Hollywood home — the city requires an "after-the-fact" permit to bring it onto the record. The work is documented, reviewed against current code, and inspected as if built today. Handled by a licensed general contractor (CGC-1534839).

Stop-Work Orders

A red "STOP WORK" tag means the City of Hollywood has halted all activity on the property, usually for work done without a permit or outside an approved scope. Nothing can legally continue until corrective permits are filed and the order is lifted by the building department.

Open & Expired Permits

A permit pulled but never finalized stays "open" in the city's system — often for years, left by a prior owner or contractor. Open and expired permits surface in every title search and must be inspected and closed before a Hollywood property can sell.

Unpermitted Work

Carport conversions, enclosed porches, and interior build-outs done without permits are extremely common on Hollywood's mid-century homes. Correcting them means permitting the work and bringing it up to current Florida Building Code under a licensed general contractor (CGC-1534839).

Pre-Sale Certificate of Use

Before many Hollywood sales and rentals can proceed, a property must pass an inspection that surfaces every open permit, violation, and non-compliant condition. Knowing what the inspector will flag — before you list — keeps a closing from falling apart at the last minute.

Code Violation Liens

Once the Special Magistrate assesses daily fines, those fines become a lien recorded against the property title. In Hollywood, an unpaid fine becomes a property lien that must be paid before the sale of the property can transfer.

Roofing Violations

An unpermitted re-roof, a roof that failed inspection, or a system without HVHZ-approved materials is a common Hollywood violation. As Broward is entirely within the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, correcting it requires a licensed roofing contractor (CCC-1335099) using HVHZ-approved materials with a Broward County Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA.

Mechanical / HVAC Violations

HVAC equipment, ductwork, and mechanical systems installed without a permit are flagged during inspections. Bringing them to code requires a licensed mechanical contractor (CMC-1251836) — work that often bundles with other trades on the same property.

Not sure which applies to your property? Our building code violation repair overview walks through every case type, or call (954) 807-3455 for a free Hollywood inspection. Plumbing violations in homes, duplexes, and multi-family buildings are corrected under our Florida Plumbing license (CFC-1434412).

Code Violations in Hollywood FL — What You Need to Know

Hollywood, Florida has a diverse mix of property types — from beachfront condos along A1A to mid-century single family homes in interior neighborhoods, older duplexes, and a growing commercial corridor along US-1 and Hollywood Boulevard. Many of these properties carry decades of unpermitted improvements — additions, converted garages, reroofed structures, and replaced windows — none of which were ever pulled through the City of Hollywood Building Department.

Hollywood property owners commonly receive violations for:

Roof replacement without City of Hollywood permits
Unpermitted room additions and garage conversions
Non-HVHZ windows in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone
Unpermitted plumbing work in older properties
Mechanical/HVAC work without permits
Screen enclosures and carports without permits
Beachfront and A1A property construction violations
Multi-family and duplex rental property violations
Structural modifications without engineer approval

FAQ

Hollywood FL Code Violations — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about building code violations in Hollywood FL — from the city's code violation search tool, fines, and liens to vacation rental compliance, beachfront properties, mid-century homes, and multi-trade violations.

The City of Hollywood offers a free public code violation search at apps.hollywoodfl.org/ViolationSearch — enter the property address to see code enforcement cases entered since May 2007. Note that the online tool does not show everything: older violations may exist on some properties, open and expired permits live in the building department's separate permit system, and recorded liens sit in county records. The city also offers an official records search for outstanding liens and violations. If your search turns up an open case on your property, call AGK at (954) 807-3455 before the Special Magistrate hearing — that's when daily fines start.
Hollywood FL code violation fines start at $250–$500 per citation. Once a case is referred to the Special Magistrate, daily fines accumulate with no cap until the violation is officially closed. Vacation rental properties face additional consequences — open violations can trigger Business Tax Receipt revocation, cutting off rental income entirely on top of daily fines. All assessed fines become recorded liens on your property title, blocking any sale or refinance. AGK initiates the permit process immediately after your free inspection to stop fines from accumulating.
Yes. Once the Special Magistrate rules and daily fines are assessed, those fines become a recorded lien against your property title. That lien attaches to the property — not just to you personally — and must be satisfied before the property can be sold, refinanced, or transferred. Hollywood liens surface in every title search and will stop a closing immediately. AGK resolves the underlying violation to stop fine accumulation and assists with lien reduction documentation where applicable.
Hollywood has its own municipal building department — the City of Hollywood Building, Licensing & Permitting Division at 2600 Hollywood Boulevard — which is separate from Broward County. All permits and violations within Hollywood city limits are handled through the city, not the county. Properties just outside city limits in unincorporated Broward County fall under the Broward County building authority instead. AGK Construction & Roofing confirms your property's correct jurisdiction before filing anything — a critical first step that avoids expensive delays from filing with the wrong department.
Yes — and Hollywood takes short-term rental compliance seriously. The City of Hollywood requires vacation rental properties to maintain valid Business Tax Receipts and pass code compliance inspections. Open building violations can result in denial or revocation of your short-term rental authorization, which directly cuts off your rental income. Hollywood Beach in particular is a high-demand vacation rental area — if you operate or plan to operate a short-term rental there, resolving any open violations before your next license renewal is essential. AGK prioritizes these cases for fastest possible resolution.
Hollywood has a large stock of mid-century homes built in the 1950s through 1970s — many with additions, converted carports, enclosed porches, and updated kitchens and bathrooms that were never permitted. The first step is a thorough property inspection to identify all open violations and unpermitted work. From there we determine which items require after-the-fact permits, which need physical corrections, and what order makes the most sense to tackle them. AGK Construction & Roofing handles multi-violation properties regularly and can develop a clear, prioritized plan for your Hollywood home.
Yes. Beachfront and A1A properties in Hollywood come with additional considerations — coastal construction control line setbacks, flood zone requirements, and in some cases review by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. As all of Broward County is within the High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), roofing and window work must use HVHZ-rated products carrying a Broward County Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA, and the permit process may involve additional documentation for coastal setback compliance. AGK Construction & Roofing has experience with coastal Hollywood properties and handles all required documentation and agency coordination.
Yes — and this is one of the strongest reasons Hollywood property owners choose AGK. We hold five active Florida contractor licenses: Roofing (CCC-1335099), General Contractor (CGC-1534839), Plumbing (CFC-1434412), Glass & Glazing (SCC-131153361), and Mechanical (CMC-1251836). This means we can resolve roofing violations, structural violations, plumbing violations, HVAC/mechanical violations, and window violations on the same property under a single contract — one contractor, one point of contact, one coordinated permit process.
This is a common and urgent situation. When open violations surface during a title search or buyer inspection, the buyer's lender will not fund and title insurance cannot be issued until violations are resolved. AGK Construction & Roofing treats pre-closing violation cases as high priority. We move quickly through the inspection, permit filing, and correction process to meet your closing deadline. Call us at (954) 807-3455 as soon as the violations are discovered — the earlier we start, the better your chances of closing on time.
Yes. Hollywood is in Broward County, which the Florida Building Code designates entirely as a High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) — the strictest wind standard in the state, shared only with Miami-Dade. All roofing systems, windows, and doors must be HVHZ-rated and carry a Broward County Product Approval or a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA). If your violation involves roofing or windows installed without proper HVHZ approvals, the correction must use compliant materials. AGK uses only HVHZ-approved products that pass City of Hollywood Building Department inspections on the first visit.
AGK Construction & Roofing serves Hollywood and all of South Broward County and can typically schedule a free on-site inspection within 24 to 48 hours of your call. For urgent situations — stop-work orders, pre-closing deadlines, vacation rental license risk, or rapidly accumulating daily fines — call us directly at (954) 807-3455 and we will prioritize your case immediately. Every day your violation stays open costs you money — the sooner we start, the sooner it is closed.
