Interior and exterior painting for homes across Miramar, from Pembroke Road south to the Miami-Dade line, quoted in writing by the owner. Before an exterior repaint there are two places to check, the city and your homeowners association, and we help you with both.
We looked for a City of Miramar page that says whether repainting a house needs a permit, and didn't find one. The Building Division's permitting page lists the city's permit exemptions without mentioning painting either way. It does describe a new state exemption for single-family owners and their contractors covering "work valued at less than $7,500," requested in writing, with electrical, plumbing, mechanical, gas and structural work still needing a permit. Since none of that names painting, we won't guess: call the Building Division at 954-602-3200 before an exterior color change, especially on a commercial or multifamily property.
If your home is in a homeowners association, that's the approval most likely to matter. Florida's HOA law, section 720.3035, says an association's control over the outside look of a home "shall be permitted only to the extent that the authority is specifically stated or reasonably inferred" in the declaration of covenants or the published guidelines it authorizes. Your association's documents set the rules, so read them first. When it asks for details, we have them ready:
Inside the house is a different story. The same statute bars an association from rules that limit or place requirements on "the interior of a structure that is not visible from the parcel’s frontage or an adjacent parcel, an adjacent common area, or a community golf course."
You pull your association's documents and color list; we walk the house and note every repair.
We brush the allowed colors on your wall and write out the specs your request needs.
Once the approval comes back, we book your dates and finish clean.
The city's history page says Miramar was incorporated on May 26, 1955, with fewer than 200 residents, inside about 2.9 square miles: Southwest 64th Avenue on the east, University Drive on the west, Pembroke Road on the north and the Dade County line on the south. Its founding story credits A.L. Mailman with the first 56 homes: "These were inexpensive homes of concrete and flat roofs." Today the city describes itself as 31 square miles, reaching half a mile west of U.S. 27 at the Everglades Conservation Area.
That spread changes the job. An older concrete home in the original part of the city has usually been repainted many times, so the prep starts with checking for chalky or loose layers, hairline cracks in the block, and roof edges and fascia where water has been running down the wall for years. Those need to be scraped, patched and primed before any color goes on. The newer stucco homes farther west usually need lighter prep: mildew washed off the shaded sides, cracks sealed, and tired caulk replaced around windows and doors. On either side of the city, a stain gets diagnosed before it gets quoted, because rust, mildew, efflorescence and alkali burn look alike from the street and need different fixes.
Not sure whether peeling paint or mildew on your house is a code issue? The city's Code Compliance FAQ says "You can report property maintenance concerns by phone, email, or online," at 954-602-3174, and that office can tell you.
