Keeping aging South Florida buildings safe and compliant — county 40/50-year recertifications, SB 4-D milestone inspections, and Structural Integrity Reserve Studies, all sealed by a licensed Professional Engineer.
South Florida's older buildings face a demanding, salt-and-humidity climate, and — especially after the 2021 Surfside collapse — both the State of Florida and local counties now require periodic structural safety reviews of aging buildings. We help owners, condo and co-op associations, and property managers across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach navigate these requirements from start to approval.
Three overlapping programs may apply to your building. We handle all of them, coordinate the timing so you're not paying for duplicate work, and deliver the sealed reports your local building department requires.
A long-standing Miami-Dade and Broward county program. Buildings are recertified once they reach 40 years of age, then every 10 years after (some jurisdictions also require a 50-year cycle).
Florida's statewide law (SB 4-D, F.S. 553.899) for condominium and cooperative buildings 3 stories or taller: a milestone inspection at 30 years of age — 25 years if within ~3 miles of the coast — and every 10 years thereafter.
We visually assess the building's structural (and, for county recerts, electrical) systems and document conditions.
We prepare and seal the recertification / milestone report your building department requires, with findings and any repair recommendations.
If repairs or a Phase 2 review are needed, we guide you through scope and re-inspection until the building is certified.
Send us your building's address and notice (if you received one) and we'll get you a clear proposal.
