If you own a home in Greenacres City built between the late 1960s and early 1990s, you’re likely facing the same reality we see on job sites across the 33454 ZIP code every week: concrete block walls that are still solid, but roofs, windows, and electrical panels that are hitting their 40-to-50-year mark and no longer meet current Palm Beach County code. That’s not a small fix, and it’s not a handyman job. It’s renovation work that needs permits pulled, inspections passed, and a contractor who knows how the local building department operates. Barrett & Sons Construction has been handling exactly this kind of work since 1998. Call us at (877) 610-1318 and you’ll reach a live person, not a voicemail box.

Why Greenacres City Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
We’re the name-on-the-truck alternative to outfits that quote one number on the phone and hand you a different bill at the door. Tom Barrett owns the company. His sons run the crews. When we say a price, it’s in writing. When something needs to change, you get a written change order before a single nail moves. No surprise invoices at the end. No “the allowance ran out” conversations that should have happened three weeks earlier. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we don’t do surprises.
Homeowners in Pine Tree Village and Nautica Isles have had us out for everything from full kitchen remodels to flat-roof replacements to hurricane-strap retrofits on older CBS homes. We answer our own phone, we pull every permit, and the inspector passes before we call the job done. Our 90-Day Done Right Promise is written on every contract. If something’s not right, one call brings Tom back.
We also publish Tom’s name, address, and license number. Look it up before you sign anything. Ask anyone on your street about the last contractor they used, or check the license yourself. We’d rather you trust paperwork than a sales pitch.
Construction Services We Offer in Greenacres City
Kitchen Remodeling in Greenacres City
Most kitchens in Greenacres City’s 1970s and 1980s tract homes were never designed for how families actually use them today. We open up the floor plan, update the electrical and plumbing, and install premium brands like KraftMaid and Cambria, all with permits and inspections handled from start to finish.

Bathroom Remodeling in Greenacres City
Older CBS homes often have original bathrooms with failing shower pans and outdated exhaust fans that let moisture sit. We gut and rebuild bathrooms with waterproofing done right, and we handle the permit and inspection sequence that Palm Beach County requires for any plumbing change.

Roofing in Greenacres City
Flat and low-slope rooflines are common on homes built during Greenacres City’s 1970s and 1980s buildout, and many are due for replacement. We install GAF and CertainTeed systems with full high-velocity hurricane fastening, and we handle the 40-year recertification paperwork that comes with this housing stock.

Windows & Doors
Replacing old aluminum-frame windows with impact-rated Andersen or Marvin units is one of the most common improvements in the 33454 ZIP code. We also install new exterior doors that close tight against afternoon thunderstorms and meet current wind-load codes.
Fence Installation
Yard drainage and property lines matter here. We set fence posts with the shallow water table in mind, using concrete that will hold through wet-season ground saturation. We pull the permit, mark the utilities, and build it square.
Driveway & Pavers
Driveways across Greenacres City take a beating from heat, rain, and soil movement. We pour new concrete and install paver driveways and patios using brands like Techo-Bloc and Belgard, with base compaction suited to a water table that sits just a few feet below grade.
Home Additions & ADUs
Adding a bedroom, in-law suite, or full ADU on an older Greenacres City lot means new footers, new tie-downs, and a permit process that rewards patience and local knowledge. We plan for the inspection calendar from day one, so your timeline doesn’t stretch because nobody told you about the pre-application meeting.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Greenacres City
We work throughout the 33454 ZIP code, including Pine Tree Village, Nautica Isles, Joggers Run, and River Bridge. When you call for an estimate, we typically schedule a site visit within a few business days. Crews live and work locally, so we’re not driving an hour to get to your job.
Why Greenacres City’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
Greenacres City was rapidly platted and built out on drained Everglades flatlands during the 1970s and 1980s, and that history shapes nearly every job we do. The housing stock is overwhelmingly single-story CBS (concrete block and stucco) construction, now hitting the 40-to-50-year mark where roofs fail, windows fail, and electrical panels can’t keep up with modern loads. Those homes are now triggering 40-year recertification reviews, mandatory hurricane-strap retrofits, and impact-opening upgrades under current Palm Beach County code.
Then there’s the water table. Greenacres sits on land kept dry by the South Florida Water Management District’s canal network, and during the June through October wet season the water table rises to within 2 to 4 feet of grade in many parts of the city. That affects every slab addition, footer pour, and underground utility run. You don’t dig a footer in Greenacres City in July without knowing exactly what you’re going to hit. We do.
And the local building department is methodical, to put it mildly. Pulling a permit for even a straightforward addition can require multiple pre-application meetings, and a failed rough inspection can push a project back two to three weeks. Experienced local crews, including ours, build that buffer into every contract timeline. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and that’s exactly why we like him.

What Greenacres City Customers Say
"Addition over the garage matched the original roofline and brickwork so closely that visitors do not realise it was added. He tracked down the closest brick he could find rather than settling."
- Gideon Stroud"The bathroom was finished on the day he said at the start, which nobody had led me to believe was possible."
- Loretta Vanterpool"His sons run the crews and they were in our house for four months. Not once did I feel I had to be home to keep an eye on things."
