Your dream home, delivered on time with zero permit headaches.
We have remodeled homes here since 1999. Jorge Monroy personally supervises every site. Whether you live in a country club, an oceanfront condo, or the Old Floresta Historic District, we know the local permit tracks. City or County? We map your parcel, clear the board approvals, and get your project moving fast.
Boca Raton housing spans 1920s Mizner-era homes in Old Floresta, luxury condos on A1A, and sprawling country clubs west of I-95. You cannot use the same remodeling playbook for all of them. We have spent 27 years learning the exact rules for each neighborhood.
Because we have worked in this exact market since 1999, we already know the path for your specific property. We handle the strict condo board reviews downtown, coordinate with country club architectural boards out west, and navigate the Historic Preservation Board in Old Floresta.
We also run the substantial-improvement math against the December 2024 FEMA flood maps upfront, so you know exactly what is possible before you pay for any design work.
Every service we offer runs through Boca's specific permit, HOA, and flood-zone rules. The links below take you to scope and pricing detail; the one-line notes describe how we handle the Boca-specific wrinkle for each.
Fixed-price, line-by-line scope. Custom white cabinetry, striking natural stone waterfall islands, and premium brass fixtures. We run permits through Boca eHub and coordinate HPD reviews for Old Floresta historic-district properties.
Schluter or Laticrete waterproofing, 24-hour flood test, fan sized per HVI-2100. For oceanfront condos on A1A, we layer board approval and IIC-50 sound-transmission compliance on top.
8–12 trades sequenced on one Gantt. Country-club HOA architectural review built into the schedule up front for Boca West, Broken Sound, The Oaks, Woodfield, and Royal Palm.
Structural engineer-sealed, zoning checked in week one. Boca's R-1-A setbacks, Coastal Construction Control Line (east of A1A), and FEMA 50% rule all verified before design fees.
Alteration agreement, COI with association as AI, freight-elevator reservations. Boca downtown, Mizner Park, and A1A oceanfront towers all handled to building-specific rules.
Every line below is a fact we verify on Boca projects as our standard practice — typically before scope commit, before design fees, and before any staging begins. Where city and county differ materially, both are shown.

The Boca neighborhoods below are places our crews have built in repeatedly — not a generic list. Each has its own architectural review process, its own typical housing era, and its own quirks at the permit counter. If you're in one of these or a community with similar rules, we already know the path.
~450-acre waterfront + golf community founded by Arthur Vining Davis; ranked among Forbes' most expensive U.S. communities. Strict ARB review, deep-water-canal access, custom home standard. We have worked inside the ARB package and the waterfront construction-control line across multiple projects over the years. Inside the City of Boca Raton — permits route through City Development Services.
Four championship courses (Palmer I & II, Fazio II, Dye IV); ranked among the world's top platinum clubs by Club Leaders Forum and Forbes. Mostly 1980s–2000s CBS construction across multiple sub-associations, each with its own ARB form. Annexed into the City of Boca Raton in 2003 — country-club ARB rules layer on top of city permits.
Two championship golf courses and a recently-renovated $40M clubhouse; hosts PGA Champions Tour events. We track ARB submittal calendar here and schedule pre-approval packages ahead of typical 2–4 week review windows. Inside the City of Boca Raton — permits route through City Development Services.
West Boca community at Clint Moore Rd & Lyons Rd (near SR 7); two manned gates and a Santa Barbara-style clubhouse. Homogeneous architectural rules for exterior alterations; we pre-stage the ARB package alongside permit submittal. Unincorporated Palm Beach County (west Boca) — permits route through PBC PZB at 2300 N Jog Rd, not the City.
1920s Addison Mizner-era Spanish/Mission Revival homes on quarter- to half-acre lots — Boca's first designated historic district (1990). Exterior alterations require Historic Preservation Board (HPB) review in addition to city permits; interior work is less constrained. Inside the City of Boca Raton — permits + HPB review through City Development Services.
~200 homes with deep-water-canal access, no fixed bridges to the Intracoastal. Homes range 1,500 to 11,000+ sq ft. Waterfront additions here trigger CCCL review and FEMA 50% rule checks; we verify both before quoting. Inside the City of Boca Raton — permits route through City Development Services.
