Q: Do I need a permit from Coral Gables or the City of Miami for my remodel?
A: Actually, neither! Little Gables is a unique unincorporated enclave. This means all permitting, from kitchen updates to impact window installations, goes through the Miami-Dade County Building Department. We handle the entire submittal process with the County RER, saving you the headache of navigating municipal bureaucracies that don’t actually have jurisdiction over your property.
Q: Can you handle repairs for historic wood-frame homes?
A: Absolutely. One of the best parts of Little Gables is its diverse architecture, including New England-style frame houses that aren’t found in nearby Mediterranean-only districts. We specialize in structural wood-frame repairs, siding restoration, and shingle roofing that maintains your home’s vintage aesthetic while meeting modern Florida Building Codes.
Q: Are the code restrictions different in Little Gables?
A: Yes. Because Little Gables is under County jurisdiction, homeowners often have more flexibility. For example, you can often install high privacy fences or shingle roofs that might be prohibited by the strict Mediterranean Revival codes of Coral Gables. We help you maximize these zoning advantages to create the specific look you want.
Q: What are the most common upgrades for Little Gables residents?
A: Many residents are currently focusing on energy-efficiency modernizations. Since many homes here are older bungalows, we often perform full electrical panel upgrades, central A/C retrofitting, and the installation of impact-resistant windows which provide both hurricane protection and significant noise reduction from the Le Jeune Road corridor.

Little Gables is a historic subdivision developed in the 1920s, conceived as a more affordable and modestly scaled alternative to the grand estates of central Coral Gables. Its name reflects its position as a smaller, self-contained community within the larger “City Beautiful.” Characterized by its small lots, charming homes from the Florida land boom era, and streets named after precious stones (Emerald, Sapphire, Ruby), it has maintained a strong identity and a tranquil, village-like ambiance that is highly prized by its residents.
Located in the quiet residential pocket between Le Jeune Road and SW 8th Street, Little Gables offers a charm all its own. Whether you own one of the neighborhood’s iconic wooden frame homes near Cortez Street or a Mediterranean bungalow on Salzedo, we understand the unique permitting and structural needs of this unincorporated community. At Fab’s Construction, we are the local experts in bridging the gap between ‘Gables’ style and Miami-Dade County regulations.
