Florida State-Certified General Contractor CGC1528750
We build new homes in Wellington as a Florida State-Certified General Contractor: the Village permit, the wind and flood checks, and the lot, zoning and setback review are worked out with your plans, not discovered after the slab is poured. We handle new construction from the single family house to million-dollar builds.

Why Us
The only Palm Beach County contractor who is also a certified energy engineer — the owner inspects every job. On a new house the envelope decides the summer power bill, so insulation, air sealing and openings are planned with the plans, not added afterwards. Free estimates, and a written one-year workmanship warranty on every job.
Permitting & Zoning
Wellington is an incorporated village, not unincorporated county. It runs its own Building Division at the Wellington Municipal Complex on Forest Hill Boulevard and issues its own permits, so a new house here is permitted through the Village and not the county. A licensed contractor pulls the permit and carries the build through each inspection. We are state-certified under CGC1528750, which lets us contract in any Florida county, and we hold a Wellington business tax receipt.
Lots are the real question. Most of Wellington was built out between the late 1970s and the 2000s, so new home construction here usually means one of three things: an infill lot in an established neighbourhood, a teardown and rebuild on an older parcel, or a larger parcel in the Equestrian Preserve Area, where the Village applies its own rules for equestrian use and lot layout. Setbacks, lot coverage, height and any overlay come from the Village’s land development regulations for your parcel’s zoning, so we read them from the parcel record and the survey and do not quote them from memory. Neighbourhood associations such as Olympia, Versailles, Grand Isles and the Isles at Wellington add architectural review on top of the Village, so we build the review window into the schedule.
Wind, Flood & Site
Much of Wellington sits in the Florida Building Code’s Wind-Borne Debris Region, where every window and door on a new house must be impact-rated or protected by approved shutters with a Florida Product Approval behind it. Local design pressures run roughly 140 to 160 mph depending on the address, so we confirm the figure for your site, the code edition and the risk category before the openings are specified.
Flood zone comes from the FEMA map for the exact parcel, and a mapped zone can bring an elevation certificate and a set floor height, which in turn shapes grading and drainage on a flat, canal-served site. On a tight infill lot, concrete trucks, a crane and material staging have to fit the street and the neighbours, so we plan access before the first delivery. Where an older house has to come down first, our demolition crew and Bell Land Services, with a Bobcat T740 and 60in grapple at $1,385/day with operator, clear the lot so one company can prepare the pad and build on it.

A new house needs a roof on it, so roofing in Wellington is the first stop for roof systems. Once it is built, property management in Wellington covers rental and association oversight. For acreage beyond the house pad, land services in Wellington handles clearing and grading, and for a housewarming or farm-style event, America the food truck in Wellington is a call away.
Questions, Answered
Wellington is an incorporated village with its own Building Division at the Wellington Municipal Complex on Forest Hill Boulevard, separate from unincorporated Palm Beach County. A licensed contractor pulls the permit and carries the build through each inspection. We are state-certified under CGC1528750, which lets us contract in any Florida county.
Setbacks, lot coverage and height come from the Village's land development regulations for your parcel's zoning district, so they differ lot to lot. We read them from your parcel record and survey before drawing anything, and we do not quote a setback from memory. Parcels in the Equestrian Preserve Area are subject to additional equestrian rules, and some neighbourhoods add their own architectural review.
Much of Wellington sits in the Florida Building Code's Wind-Borne Debris Region, where every opening on a new house must be impact-rated or protected by approved shutters with a valid Florida Product Approval. Local design pressures run roughly 140 to 160 mph depending on the address, and we confirm the figure for your site and the code edition before the openings are specified.
Flood zone is read from the FEMA map for your exact parcel. A mapped zone can raise the required floor height and bring an elevation certificate, which shapes the grading and drainage plan, so we check it before the design is fixed and not after the foundation is poured.
Yes. The same company can demolish the existing house, clear the lot with a Bobcat T740 and 60in grapple at $1,385/day with operator, and build on the cleared pad, so there is no handoff between separate contractors. We offer free estimates, and we put the scope in writing after we have looked at the lot.
We handle the residential and structural side of a new house on a larger parcel, permitted through the Village. Because the Equestrian Preserve Area has its own rules for lot layout and equestrian use, we review them against your parcel record at the estimate and tell you what they mean for the house location and access.
