Licensed · Permitted · Inspected · Violation Closed · All Cities · Free Consultation

The most common code violations AGK resolves across South Florida fall into five categories. First — roofing violations: non-HVHZ or non-NOA roofing materials installed without the correct product approval, and installations performed without a building permit. Second — open permits: permits pulled for roofing, windows, structural work, or other trades that were never closed with a final inspection. These are extremely common on older properties in both Miami-Dade and Broward. Third — unpermitted work: additions, enclosures, window replacements, and structural modifications performed without a building permit. Fourth — window and door violations: non-impact windows or doors installed in South Florida's wind-borne debris region without HVHZ or NOA product approval. Fifth — pre-sale violations: compliance issues discovered during 4-point inspections or title searches that must be resolved before property transfer.

An unresolved code violation has significant and immediate practical consequences for any South Florida property. For insurance: Citizens Property Insurance will not issue or renew a policy on a property with an active code violation or open permit — leaving the property uninsured in one of the country's most active hurricane zones. For sales: title companies will not issue title insurance, and mortgage lenders will not fund, on a property with an outstanding code violation or open permit — meaning the sale cannot close until the violation is resolved. For future permits: most South Florida building departments will not issue new permits in related trades on a property with outstanding open permits.

The most important thing to understand is that violations and open permits do not expire or go away with time — they attach to the property record indefinitely until formally resolved. Call AGK at (954) 807-3455 for a free assessment of any South Florida property.

Yes — and this is the most critical aspect of South Florida violation resolution that property owners and unlicensed contractors frequently get wrong. Most incorporated South Florida cities — Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Coral Springs, Miami, Miami Beach, Hialeah, Coral Gables, and dozens of others — have their own independent building departments with their own permit procedures, fee schedules, and inspection processes. Filing a violation resolution permit with the wrong building department creates delays and rejection. AGK confirms the correct building department for every South Florida property address before filing anything — never assuming and never filing with the wrong office.

Yes — and this is one of AGK's most significant competitive advantages for South Florida property owners with multiple compliance issues. AGK holds four active Florida contractor licenses: roofing (CCC-1335099), general construction (CGC-1534839), plumbing (CFC-1434412), and glass and glazing (SCC-131153361). A property with a roofing violation, non-impact windows, an unpermitted addition, and a plumbing open permit can have all four issues resolved under one AGK contract — eliminating the complexity and cost of managing multiple licensed contractors simultaneously. Call (954) 807-3455 for a free multi-violation assessment.

Call AGK at (954) 807-3455 immediately — pre-sale violations are our highest priority category and we provide same-day or next-day consultations for situations with real estate closing deadlines throughout all of South Florida. The speed of resolution depends on the violation type, the city's building department review timeline, and whether corrective work is required.

Simple open permit closures where the original work was done correctly but the final inspection was never scheduled can sometimes be resolved in 2 to 4 weeks. Violations requiring corrective work and re-inspection typically take 4 to 8 weeks. We tell you clearly on day one which situation applies and what the realistic timeline is for your specific property and closing date.
