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.
