Legalization of Existing Works in Florida – Bring Your Property into Compliance with Confidence
In the construction world, not every project begins with the proper paperwork in place. Unpermitted additions, undeclared
structural changes, or work that was never officially closed with the municipality are more common than most property owners
realize. At Claro Construction, we specialize in legalizing existing works, helping you bring your property into full compliance and
avoiding future headaches.
An unpermitted structure doesn’t just put you at risk for fines or penalties — it can also complicate selling your property, obtaining
financing, or securing insurance coverage. Our mission is to ensure that everything you’ve built is 100% legal, meets the Florida
Building Code, and is officially recognized by the proper authorities.
How We Handle Legalization
The legalization process may seem complicated, but we make it
smooth and straightforward: 1. Initial Evaluation – We inspect your property to identify any
work requiring legalization. 2. Review of Existing Plans and Documentation – We assess
what’s already been filed and what’s missing. 3. “As-Built” Drawings – We prepare accurate plans reflecting the
construction as it exists. 4. Submission to the Municipality – We compile and submit all
required documentation for official approval. 5. Inspection Coordination – We schedule and manage inspector
visits, addressing any comments or corrections.
6. Permit Closure – We ensure the file is finalized and properly
recorded.
Why Legalizing Your Work Matters
• Avoid fines and penalties from the city or
county. • Facilitate property sale or refinancing without
last-minute issues. • Secure insurance coverage in case of damage
or loss. • Protect the value of your investment over
time.
• Ensure compliance with current codes and
regulations to prevent future legal problems.
Types of Work We Legalize
At Claro Construction, we handle the legalization of: • Residential additions and remodels. • Accessory structures such as garages, terraces, or porches. • Structural changes and interior reconfigurations. • Installation of impact windows and doors. • Commercial renovations and tenant build-outs.
• Enclosures, driveways, sidewalks, and approaches.
Our Advantage
Legalizing a project is not just about filling out forms — it requires technical knowledge, regulatory experience, and established
relationships with local building departments. At Claro Construction, we bring all these elements together to get your project
approved quickly, minimizing delays and avoiding costly re-submissions.
