Serving North Miami Beach, FL 33160 · 33162 · 33179 · Licensed & Insured · 5 FL Licenses
At AGK Construction & Roofing, we help North Miami Beach owners clear building code violations on homes, condos, Intracoastal waterfront properties, and commercial buildings across the city. North Miami Beach — NMB for short — runs its own Building Department and Code Compliance Division at 17050 NE 19th Avenue, independent of both Miami-Dade County and the separate City of North Miami next door. Two things make enforcement here distinct: the FIX IT NMB portal, where anyone can file a complaint online, and a dual hearing structure that sends unresolved cases to either a Special Magistrate or a Code Enforcement Board. Our five Florida licenses — roofing, general, plumbing, glass & glazing, and mechanical — let us close out almost any violation type on an NMB property under a single contract.
The City of North Miami Beach Code Compliance Division actively enforces building code violations and can escalate unresolved cases to either the Special Magistrate or the Code Enforcement Board. Both have authority to impose daily running fines and order liens recorded against your property. Violations can be reported through the FIX IT NMB system by anyone — making enforcement broader than many surrounding cities. Call AGK at (954) 807-3455 for a free same-week inspection.
North Miami Beach is a diverse, densely populated city in northeast Miami-Dade County with a housing stock that includes older single-family homes in neighborhoods like Ojus and Ives Estates, waterfront properties along the Intracoastal, large condominium towers near the beach, and major commercial corridors along NE 163rd Street and Biscayne Boulevard. The city enforces the Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade County HVHZ standards — requiring all roofing, windows, and doors to carry Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) product approval.
Like the rest of Miami-Dade County, NMB follows the County's building recertification timeline — applicable buildings are recertified at 30 years and every 10 years thereafter. What truly sets NMB's enforcement apart is its FIX IT NMB reporting portal, which allows any individual to report violations, making enforcement broader and faster than many neighboring cities. Property owners commonly receive violations for:
North Miami Beach uses the FIX IT NMB online portal — a system that allows any individual to report what they believe may be a code violation. Reports are assigned to a Code Compliance Officer responsible for that area, who investigates and initiates enforcement if a violation exists. This means violations in NMB can be triggered quickly by neighbors, tenants, or anyone who notices an issue.
Once a violation is confirmed, the process moves quickly:
Most NMB violation cases come down to one of the situations below — and with the FIX IT NMB portal, any of them can be reported and escalated quickly. Tap any topic to learn how it works:
Built something without pulling a permit first — a room addition, an enclosed carport, a new roof? NMB makes you legalize it through an after-the-fact permit: the existing work gets documented, re-reviewed against today's HVHZ code, and re-inspected. We file and carry it as your licensed general contractor (CGC-1534839).
Stop-Work OrdersA red "STOP WORK" tag halts all activity, usually for work done without an NMB permit. Nothing can legally continue until corrective permits are filed and the order is lifted by the Building Department.
Open & Expired PermitsA permit pulled but never finalized stays "open" in the NMB system — often left by a prior owner or contractor. Open and expired permits surface in every title search and must be inspected and closed before you can sell or refinance.
Unpermitted WorkAdditions, garage conversions, and enclosed porches done without permits are common on NMB's older homes — and exactly the kind of thing a FIX IT NMB report flags. Correcting them means permitting the work to current code under a licensed general contractor (CGC-1534839).
Pre-Sale & Certificate of UseOpen violations, expired permits, and recorded liens all surface during a title search and stop a closing. Clearing them — and confirming the certificate of use for rentals and commercial spaces — before you list keeps your NMB closing on schedule.
Code Violation LiensOnce the Special Magistrate or Code Enforcement Board assesses daily fines, those fines become a lien recorded against the property title. The lien blocks any sale or refinance until the underlying violation is resolved and the case is closed.
Roofing ViolationsRe-roofs done without a permit, or roofs that never met wind-zone standards, are among the most-cited NMB violations. The fix has to be done by a licensed roofer (CCC-1335099) with Miami-Dade NOA product approvals on every component.
Mechanical / HVAC ViolationsA/C changeouts, new ductwork, and rooftop units dropped in without a mechanical permit turn up constantly in NMB's condo towers and apartment buildings. A licensed mechanical contractor (CMC-1251836) permits and corrects them — usually alongside the other trades in one job.
