Housing characteristics in Miami

Predominantly concrete block (CBS) construction built to Florida's strict hurricane codes defines Miami's residential landscape. Many homes sit in flood zones requiring elevation or flood-proofing measures. Salt air accelerates the degradation of exterior materials, making material selection and protective coatings critical for any exterior project.

  • competitive contractor market with varied pricing
  • mix of older and newer housing stock
