Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Fountainebleau
Finding a general contractor in Fountainebleau means sorting through a lot of voices that sound the same. What you actually need is someone who knows that this specific pocket of Miami-Dade runs on its own rules, especially when it comes to hurricane code and permitting. Mason Remodeling has been doing this work since 2004 as part of the Threshold Group family, and we coordinate Fountainebleau projects from our Miami office, with local crews who know the area. Call (803) 680-2547 and a live person answers, any hour, any day.
Why Mason Remodeling Is Fountainebleau’s Preferred General Contractor Company
We do not lead with a sales pitch. We lead with who is coming to your door. Before any Mason Remodeling technician arrives in Fountainebleau, you receive their name and photo. They show up in a clean, marked uniform with a photo ID badge, and they introduce themselves at the door. That is The Threshold Standard, and it applies to every job, from a small kitchen refresh near Westward Drive to a whole-home remodel off Fontainebleau Boulevard.
Our written pricing is just as consistent. Every project gets a written price before work begins, not a verbal ballpark that drifts upward later. Homeowners in Fountainebleau tell us the same thing: they want to know the number, in writing, with the scope spelled out. So that is what we do, every time, no exceptions. And every completed job carries a written guarantee, plain terms included, for 365 days from the completion date.

Hire a General Contractor in Fountainebleau
Hire a General Contractor in Fountainebleau when the project touches structure, plumbing, electrical, or load-bearing walls, and when permits become part of the conversation. A kitchen remodel in Fountainebleau runs $14,000 to $45,000, while a small kitchen lands between $9,000 and $20,000. A bathroom remodel typically falls between $9,000 and $28,000, and a home addition ranges from $45,000 to $130,000 depending on foundation work and the Miami-Dade Product Approval paperwork involved.
What a lot of Fountainebleau homeowners do not see until the job starts is the pre-construction phase: plan review, NOA lookup for any impact-rated product, structural assessment, and permit submission. That is not filler. That is the part that keeps your project from stalling at inspection.
Kitchen and Bath Projects
Most Fountainebleau kitchen work starts with demolition and hidden-condition discovery. Homes built in the 1970s through the early 2000s here often have cast-iron drain lines under the slab and undersized electrical panels. We budget for what we can see and write the quote so those concealed risks are addressed before they become change orders.
Whole-Home and Structural Work
Any structural change in Fountainebleau goes through High-Velocity Hurricane Zone plan review. That affects window openings, load-bearing wall removal, even some carport enclosures. Our team handles the NOA submittals and coordinates directly with Miami-Dade inspectors, so you do not sit on the phone with the building department wondering what went sideways.
General Contractor Services in Fountainebleau
General Contractor Services in Fountainebleau cover anything a homeowner needs when the project is too big for a handyman and too regulated for guesswork. Impact window installation runs $8,000 to $25,000 here, driven largely by the Miami-Dade Product Approval requirements each unit must meet. A walk-in shower installation falls between $4,500 and $12,000, and a small bathroom remodel starts around $5,000 and climbs to $12,000.
We do not sell the job on the first call. We scope it, price it, and give you the written number before a single tool leaves the truck. For Fountainebleau homeowners, that is the difference between a project that proceeds on schedule and one that stalls on a paperwork technicality.
Additions and Conversions
Room additions and garage conversions in Fountainebleau require structural drawings, HVHZ wind-load calculations, and a permitting path that can take weeks. We run that process from start to finish, and we quote it as a line item so the calendar is as predictable as the price.
Renovation Management
When a Fountainebleau project spans multiple trades, we coordinate the electrician, plumber, drywall, tile, and finish work under one written agreement. You get one schedule, one point of contact, and one price, instead of five separate bids and a punch list nobody owns.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Fountainebleau Homes
- Failure to verify Miami-Dade Product Approval before ordering windows or shutters. Impact-rated products without current NOA documentation get flagged at inspection, and the permit stalls. We verify approvals during the quoting phase, before you spend a dollar on materials.
- Quoting from photos instead of walking the site. Fountainebleau homes built before 2000 frequently hide cast-iron drains and undersized wiring behind finished walls. A photo estimate misses these, and the homeowner gets a surprise change order at rough-in.
- Verbal scope instead of a written agreement. When allowances and exclusions are not written down, the punch list becomes a disagreement. Our written price addresses this before work starts, with inclusions and exclusions stated in plain language.
- Ignoring load-bearing conditions in original construction. We see plenty of interior walls in Fountainebleau that turn out to carry roof load, especially in ranches and split-levels. A structural engineer’s letter is cheaper than a failed inspection, and it keeps the project moving.

FAQs About General Contractor in Fountainebleau
Yes, almost without exception. Fountainebleau sits under Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules, so any kitchen remodel touching electrical, plumbing, or structural walls requires a permit, and any impact-rated product must carry current Miami-Dade Product Approval before inspection. Our team pulls the permits and handles the NOA submittals as part of the project. Call (803) 680-2547 for a written quote that includes the permitting line items.
Most Fountainebleau kitchen and bath remodels take 6 to 12 weeks from contract signing to final punch list, with plan review and NOA verification consuming the first 2 to 4 weeks before demolition starts. Additions and structural work run longer, often 3 to 6 months depending on Miami-Dade inspection scheduling. We put the calendar in writing before work begins, and we update it weekly as inspections clear.
In Fountainebleau, the biggest cost drivers are Miami-Dade Product Approval paperwork, High-Velocity Hurricane Zone plan review, and concealed conditions like cast-iron drains, undersized electrical panels, and load-bearing walls that only surface after demolition. A written quote accounts for the known scope and clearly states how concealed conditions will be handled if they are discovered, so you are not handed a surprise change order mid-job. Call (803) 680-2547 to discuss your project’s specific cost drivers.
A draw schedule ties payments to completed milestones rather than calendar dates, so you never pay ahead of the work. On a typical Fountainebleau remodel, draws occur at permit issuance, rough-in inspection, drywall completion, and final inspection, with the final payment held until the punch list is signed off. We put the draw schedule in writing in the contract, and every completed project carries our 365-day Done Right Promise from completion. Call (803) 680-2547 to review what a draw schedule looks like for your scope.
At minimum, you need a written scope of work, a fixed price with allowances stated in dollars, a permit and NOA plan, a draw schedule tied to milestones, and a written guarantee with coverage terms and duration. Mason Remodeling delivers all of it before work starts, including the 365-day Done Right Promise and free return visit if a repair or installation fails. Estimates are free; call (803) 680-2547 to schedule yours.
Fountainebleau sits under one of the strictest building codes in the country, and the paperwork is not optional. We pulled a permit for a 2004-built home near the Fountainebleau Golf Course to open a galley kitchen wall. The plans examiner flagged the header over the new opening as possibly load-bearing, so we had a structural engineer confirm the span, installed a properly sized LVL beam, and passed the rough-in and final inspection sign-off before hanging KraftMaid cabinets. That engineer letter was the single biggest cost driver, not the carpentry. That is how Fountainebleau projects actually work, and we price for it from the first walk-through.
Isaac Pruett leads Mason Remodeling, and every job carries the same standard: a written price before work starts, identity-verified crew members you know by name and photo, and a 365-day promise that the work will be right or we will make it right at no cost.
