The finished product far exceeded my expectations. The attention to detail and quality of the work were outstanding, but what impressed me just as much was the professionalism of the entire crew.Read full review
Serving Parkland and all of Broward County
Parkland began as cattle land and is now one of the newest and most single-family places in South Florida, with a median build year of 2006 and more than eight in ten homes detached houses. Much of the city sits in gated and HOA communities such as Heron Bay, Parkland Golf & Country Club and MiraLago. Parkland is in Broward County, inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone.
Four categories. Every install custom-cut for the room it goes into
What is specific about homes and rules here, with the sources
About 84% of Parkland's roughly 11,500 housing units are single-family detached houses, and another 6% are attached homes such as townhouses.
About 67% of housing units were built in 2000 or later, and the median home was built in 2006.
About 85% of occupied homes are owner-occupied.
Parkland was founded in 1963 on land that cattle farmer Bruce B. Blount had parceled out as BBB Ranches, and it has grown from 420 acres to more than 8,000.
The city's directory of homeowners associations lists more than 40 associations, from Heron Bay's many sub-associations to Parkland Isles and Cypress Head.
The Building Department at City Hall, 6600 University Drive, issues permits and runs inspections, and permitting has moved to the Access My Government Online (MGO) portal. Its FAQ says an electrical permit is needed before adding to or extending any high or low voltage circuit.

Parkland's Building Department FAQ says an electrical permit must be obtained before adding to or extending any electrical circuit, high or low voltage, and that the only work that clearly does not need one is the direct replacement of a fan or fixture. It also says extension cords may never be used in place of permanent wiring, and the department publishes a separate Low Voltage permit checklist.
Florida law limits that. Under Section 720.3035(1)(b), Florida Statutes, an HOA or its architectural committee may not enforce or adopt a rule that limits or places requirements on the interior of a structure that is not visible from the parcel's frontage, an adjacent parcel, a common area or a community golf course. Exterior work is another matter, so check your association's rules if a project shows from outside.
Florida law generally requires licensed contractors, but Section 489.103(7), Florida Statutes, lets an owner act as their own contractor under set conditions, and Parkland's FAQ spells them out. You must personally supervise the work, you cannot hire an unlicensed contractor, anyone helping you who is not a licensed contractor must be your employee, and you cannot sell or lease the building within one year after construction is complete.
