Why North Miami Beach Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998 and his sons run the crews. That matters in North Miami Beach, where homeowners along NE 163rd Street and in the Eastern Shores neighborhood have dealt with plenty of contractors who send strangers and surprise invoices. We publish Tom’s name, address, and license number, and you can look them up before you sign anything. Reviews from North Miami Beach homeowners consistently mention the same things: written change orders before any scope change, permits pulled and inspections signed, and crews who show up when they say they will.
We work regularly in Eastern Shores and along the Sunny Isles Boulevard corridor, where older CBS homes sit a few blocks from new luxury towers. Homeowners there tell us the same story: a national company quoted one number over the phone, then handed them a different bill at the door. We do not work that way. Every allowance, every scope change, every price adjustment arrives in writing before a single nail moves.
Construction Services We Offer in North Miami Beach
Kitchen Remodeling
Kitchen Remodeling in North Miami Beach starts with the realities of CBS construction: block walls, slab floors, and limited wall cavity depth for plumbing and electrical. We carry KraftMaid and Cambria across our kitchen work, and we plan each layout around Miami-Dade code requirements for GFCI protection, ventilation, and structural changes.
Learn more about our Kitchen Remodeling in North Miami Beach.
Bathroom Remodeling
Bathroom Remodeling in North Miami Beach often means working with bathrooms on slabs, which means cutting concrete to move drains is part of the job. We use Schluter waterproofing systems as standard on our shower builds here, because the humidity and salt air demand it.

Roofing
North Miami Beach Roofing means HVHZ compliance, full stop. We install GAF systems with Miami-Dade NOA approvals, and we handle the county inspections that come with them.

Windows & Doors
Those original jalousie windows on 1950s and 60s homes do not meet current Miami-Dade wind standards, which is why Windows & Doors - North Miami Beach upgrades matter. We install Andersen and Marvin products with the NOA numbers North Miami Beach inspectors require.
Fence Installation
Fence work in North Miami Beach means checking first with the City of North Miami Beach for setback and height rules, then building for wind load. We handle the permitting so your fence does not turn into a code violation.
Driveway & Pavers
We install Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers on driveways and patios throughout North Miami Beach. On lots with a high water table, we build the base to handle drainage properly, because you cannot just lay pavers on saturated ground and expect them to stay flat.
Home Additions & ADU
Adding square footage in North Miami Beach usually means engineered footings, because the water table sits only 2 to 4 feet below grade in much of the area. We coordinate the structural engineering and the dual permitting that comes with additions here.
Neighborhoods We Serve in North Miami Beach
Our crews work throughout ZIP 33160, so we know how different blocks handle differently. Here are a few of the neighborhoods we serve most often:
- Eastern Shores
- North Miami Beach Golf Course area
- Intracoastal corridor near NE 163rd Street
- Sunny Isles Boulevard corridor
- Highland Lakes area
Response time for estimates in North Miami Beach is typically same week, and we always confirm the day and window before anyone shows up.
Why North Miami Beach’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
North Miami Beach sits inside Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest building code environment in the United States. Every window, door, and roofing product installed here must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance number. A product that passes Florida statewide code but lacks the NOA is legal in Broward County, just miles north in Hallandale Beach, but it will trigger a stop-work order here. We have seen this happen to other contractors mid-project, and it is the kind of costly delay you avoid by working with a crew that pulls North Miami Beach permits every week.
The housing stock compounds it. Many interior streets hold 1950s through 1970s concrete block homes with original jalousie windows, flat or low-slope roofs, and decades of salt-air exposure from the Atlantic and the Intracoastal. Steel reinforcement and anchor bolts corrode faster here than inland. When we open up a wall or a roofline, we budget for what we actually find, not what a phone quote assumes.

FAQs About Construction in North Miami Beach
Yes, almost certainly. North Miami Beach requires permits for structural work, roofing, window and door replacement, electrical, plumbing, and most fence installations. On top of the city permit, Miami-Dade County reviews product approvals for HVHZ compliance. We pull permits on every eligible job and we do not skip inspections. Call (877) 610-1318 if you want a straight answer on what your project requires.
North Miami Beach sits inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so products must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance number proving they withstand the wind pressures this coastal area sees. Products approved by Florida statewide code but missing the NOA will fail inspection here. We specify NOA-approved materials on every job so your project does not stall at the permit counter.
A full kitchen remodel in North Miami Beach typically runs $35,000 to $85,000, and the range depends on whether you keep the existing footprint or move plumbing and electrical through slab concrete. Cambria countertops and KraftMaid cabinetry push toward the higher end. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
The only way our price changes is if you change the scope, and even then you receive a written change order before any new work begins. The allowance that is not on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and we do not work that way. If we open a wall and find something the quote did not include, you will see it in writing before we touch it.
Yes. We coordinate with both the City of North Miami Beach and Miami-Dade County’s Building and Neighborhood Compliance department on every job that requires it. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and we have learned over the years that pulling permits and passing inspections is the only way to deliver work that holds up. Call (877) 610-1318 to talk through your project.

What North Miami Beach Customers Say
"Full kitchen down to the studs. He found the previous owner had done the wiring himself and it was genuinely dangerous, showed me, and put it right properly rather than boxing it back in."
- Augustus Nwachukwu"He pulled every permit and had every inspection signed off. The last contractor we used told us permits were optional and I have been paying for that ever since."
- Redmond Cavanaugh"Genuinely good builders and I would use them again. Site tidiness slipped a bit in the middle stretch and I had to mention it, after which it was spotless every evening."
- Marcus Threadgill
