Not only did he explain every step of the way, including when he was going to start and finish, he sent pictures and videos daily of the progress. His crew showed up right on time every day, it didn't matter if it was raining or not, they were there! They did an excellent job! I'd highly recommend them for any pool reconditioning.

Your Are Just Four Steps Away From The Perfect Home Oasis
We begin by sitting down with you, in person or virtually, to truly understand your vision, priorities, and budget for your project. This collaborative conversation is the essential first step in transforming your ideas into a feasible and exciting plan.
You will receive a clear, detailed written proposal that outlines the scope of work, timeline, investment, and material selections for your project. We believe in no surprises, so we take the time to explain everything, from permits to materials, and answer all your questions before we begin.
Our seasoned team manages your project from start to finish with meticulous care, maintaining a clean, organized worksite daily. You'll receive regular progress updates, including photos when helpful, so you're always informed and confident.
We walk through the finished project with you to ensure every detail meets our high standards and your complete satisfaction. Your approval is what truly completes our work, and we consider the job finished only when you are delighted.
Do I need approval from the Historic Preservation Board for my Morningside remodel?
Yes. Because Morningside is a designated Historic District, any exterior changes—including window replacements, additions, or major facade work—must be approved by the City of Miami Historic Preservation Board. We manage the entire process, including the preparation of architectural drawings and representation at board hearings.
What are the requirements for impact windows in Morningside?
Morningside properties are in a high-wind zone and must comply with HVHZ (High-Velocity Hurricane Zone) standards. Additionally, the windows must match the historic profiles, colors, and muntin patterns of the original structure. We source specialized, board-approved impact windows that provide 21st-century protection without compromising historic character.
Can you modernize the interior of a historic Morningside estate?
Absolutely. While the exterior of your Morningside home is protected, the interior can be completely reimagined. We specialize in creating open-concept floor plans, luxury gourmet kitchens, and smart-home integrations that offer modern convenience while respecting the home’s original architectural soul.
How does being near Biscayne Bay affect construction in Morningside?
Homes near the bay often face unique challenges related to flood elevation and salt-air corrosion. We utilize marine-grade finishes and ensure all structural work complies with current FEMA flood zone regulations and City of Miami coastal building codes to protect your investment for decades to come.
