A concrete repair or a gutter job looks the same from the street in every town, but the ground, the roof and the permit desk do not. Here is what is new this week from Construction, town by town.

Concrete restoration in Greenacres: block homes from 1970 to 1999

Much of Greenacres went up as concrete block between roughly 1970 and 1999, so the driveways, lanai slabs and pool decks around those homes are now decades old. The City of Greenacres runs its own Building Division, and the page explains why steel set too close to the surface, not salt air, is what usually drives the damage inland. Read the Greenacres concrete page.

Concrete restoration in Lake Worth: two places share one name

Lake Worth Beach is an incorporated city with its own Building Division at 1900 2nd Avenue North, while the unincorporated area west of it goes through the Palm Beach County Building Division. Many city lots are narrow, so access and staging are planned before the crew arrives. See concrete restoration in Lake Worth.

Concrete restoration in Palm Springs: the Village permit desk

Palm Springs is low, flat, sandy ground with a shallow water table, which is why spalling is the failure we see most in older driveways, pool decks and stairs. The permit runs through the Village, and where a condominium board comes first the association sign-off comes before the work. Read the Palm Springs concrete page.

Seamless gutters in Loxahatchee: rain in short, heavy bursts

Gutters here do their hardest work from June through October. A tile roof sheds water differently from a shingle or metal one, so the run, corners and downspout count are chosen for the roof in front of us, and rotted fascia is replaced before the new run goes up. See seamless gutters in Loxahatchee.

Seamless gutters in The Acreage: where the downspout may discharge

Most of The Acreage drains through swales and culverts maintained by the Indian Trail Improvement District, and most homes run on a well and septic system. Downspouts are planned toward the lot's own grade, away from the slab and the drain-field side of the house. Read the Acreage gutter page.

Seamless gutters in Wellington: rolled to length at your house

Wellington's roofs are a patchwork of tile, shingle and metal, and each delivers water to the eave differently. We form each run on your driveway in one piece, check the fascia behind it and match colours for Wellington HOAs. See seamless gutters in Wellington.

We hold the permit where one is required as a Florida State-Certified General Contractor (CGC1528750) and an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm (#NAT-F122701-2). If you are weighing a concrete repair or a gutter job, call and we will walk the site. See also our concrete restoration hub and seamless gutters hub.

This Week — FAQ

Why does the town change how a concrete repair is permitted?

Greenacres, Lake Worth Beach and Palm Springs each run their own building department, while unincorporated areas such as The Acreage go through the Palm Beach County Building Division. Which office applies depends on the parcel, so we read the parcel record first.

Why do you check the fascia before hanging a new gutter?

Water sits against the fascia board behind a leaking gutter, so the bottom edge often goes soft before the gutter fails. A new gutter hung on soft wood only moves the problem, so we probe the board and replace what has rotted first.

Who pulls the permit on these jobs?

We do. As a Florida State-Certified General Contractor (CGC1528750) we hold the permit where one is required and carry it through to close-out. Each office sets its own review times, so we do not promise a date.
