Why Us

The only Lake Worth Beach remodeler who is also a certified energy engineer

Randolph Scott Bell is the only Palm Beach County contractor who is also a certified energy engineer, and he inspects every Lake Worth Beach remodel himself. A bungalow-era house here typically means original single-pane windows and little to no wall insulation, so a remodel is exactly where that combination earns its keep: while the walls are open we specify the insulation, air-sealing and opening details that keep the house both code-compliant and comfortable. Every job carries a written one-year workmanship warranty. Every roofing or window estimate also includes a free wind-mitigation & energy walk-through.

What We Build

Remodeling for the whole house

Permitting & Wind Load

Its own city desk, its own top wind band

Lake Worth Beach is an incorporated city and runs its own Building Division, separate from the Palm Beach County Building Division that governs unincorporated areas like Loxahatchee. A licensed contractor must hold the permit and be present at final inspection on any remodel touching structure, electrical, plumbing or mechanical systems; we submit and track the application through the City's own office, not the county's.

A remodel that adds square footage, enlarges a window, or cuts a new door into an exterior wall creates a new opening — and Lake Worth Beach is oceanfront, sitting in the Florida Building Code's Wind-Borne Debris Region in the same top-tier 170 mph ultimate design wind speed band (Risk Category II, Exposure C) as West Palm Beach. We confirm the exact rating for your parcel and spec a Florida Product Approved unit rated to it before we ever quote the opening.

Named Communities & Historic Preservation

College Park and Old Lucerne

College Park and Old Lucerne are designated National Register historic districts, built out in the 1910s–1930s bungalow era. A remodel touching the exterior in either district typically needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the City's Historic Resource Preservation Board — covering style, height and material — before a permit is finaled. That review runs alongside, not instead of, the City permit, and we prepare the submittal package so it doesn't stall the job.

We remodel the rest of Lake Worth Beach too, following standard City permitting where no historic district or private HOA applies. We scope every job against the right approval path before we draw up a permit set.

Proof

What we can — and can't — claim in Lake Worth Beach

No named Lake Worth Beach remodeling project is in our confirmed project-to-city ledger yet, and we won't invent one to fill this space. What is real and photographed: a wheelchair-accessibility ramp we built at a Lake Worth Beach residence in 2025 — a different service, but real, permitted work in this specific city, documented on our wheelchair ramps page.

We lead the rest of our proof with the credential stack: Bell Engineering and Construction Corporation holds Certified General Contractor license CGC1528750 and Certified Roofing Contractor license CCC1332751 — both STATE certifications, not county registrations, meaning we may legally contract anywhere in Florida without additional local licensure. We hold a Palm Beach County Business Tax Receipt and stop there — there is no Lake Worth Beach-specific receipt on our confirmed list, so none is claimed. We also carry EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm registration #NAT-F122701-2 and BBB A+ accreditation.

Questions, Answered

Lake Worth Beach home remodeling, frequently asked

Who issues remodel permits in Lake Worth Beach?

Lake Worth Beach is an incorporated city and runs its own Building Division, separate from the Palm Beach County Building Division that governs unincorporated areas like Loxahatchee. A licensed contractor must hold the permit and be present at final inspection. We file and track every Lake Worth Beach remodel through the City's own office, not the county's.

What wind rating does a remodel addition or new opening need in Lake Worth Beach?

Lake Worth Beach is oceanfront and sits in the Florida Building Code's Wind-Borne Debris Region, in the same top-tier 170 mph ultimate design wind speed band (Risk Category II, Exposure C) as West Palm Beach. Any new or enlarged opening a remodel creates needs a Florida Product Approval matched to that band, confirmed before we quote.

Do I need Historic Resource Preservation Board approval to remodel in College Park or Old Lucerne?

Yes, if the work touches the exterior. College Park and Old Lucerne are designated National Register historic districts from the 1910s-1930s bungalow era, and an exterior remodel there typically needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the City's Historic Resource Preservation Board — covering style, height and material — before a permit is finaled. That review runs alongside, not instead of, the City permit. Outside those two districts, standard City permitting applies.

Do you have a named home remodeling project in Lake Worth Beach?

No confirmed named remodeling project in Lake Worth Beach is on our record yet, and we won't invent one. What is real and photographed: a wheelchair-accessibility ramp we built at a Lake Worth Beach residence in 2025, documented on our wheelchair ramps page. It's a different service, but it's real, permitted work in this specific city.

Are you licensed to remodel homes in Lake Worth Beach?

Yes. Randolph Scott Bell holds Florida STATE-CERTIFIED General Contractor license CGC1528750 and Certified Roofing Contractor license CCC1332751 — certifications, not mere registrations, meaning he may legally contract in any Florida county, Lake Worth Beach included, without any additional local licensure. We hold the Palm Beach County Business Tax Receipt; there is no Lake Worth Beach-specific receipt on our confirmed list, so none is claimed.

What does a whole-home remodel in Lake Worth Beach typically include?

Kitchen and bathroom work bundled into a full-home renovation, additions-adjacent scope where the lot and code allow it, and structural and cosmetic work carried under one CGC1528750 permit rather than a string of separate trade permits. We never quote a price without seeing the house — call for a quote.
