Kendall, Miami-Dade County

Commercial painting in Kendall

Kendall is unincorporated, so a commercial repaint there answers to Miami-Dade County, not a city. The county handles folios beginning with "30" and lists interior and exterior painting as work needing no building permit, but watertight roof coatings do need one.

Two painting jobs in Kendall still need county paperwork: a painted wall sign and the seal coating or re-striping of a parking lot each require a Zoning Improvement Permit. Romco separates those items in the quote so the permit is filed before that part starts.

The county's simplified exemption process for small jobs is not open to properties partly or wholly in a flood hazard area. Romco checks the folio and flood status of a Kendall property before deciding which route applies.

How the job runs

From site walk to turnover

Romco Builders is a licensed Florida general contractor, headquartered in Fort Lauderdale. It manages each painting job here from the jurisdiction check to the punch list.

  1. Site walk and jurisdiction check

    Romco walks the building, measures the surfaces and confirms whether the county or a city building official governs the folio.

  2. Approvals and colors

    Any color board, historic review, zoning permit or roof-coating permit the address needs is filed before materials are ordered.

  3. Phasing and protection

    Work is split around open tenants, residents and traffic. Floors, glazing, landscaping and storm drains are protected before prep starts.

  4. Surface prep

    Cleaning, scraping, patching and priming, with wash water kept out of storm drains as county and city rules require.

  5. Coating application

    Coats go on in the order the system calls for, with exterior work timed around rainy-season weather.

  6. Punch list and turnover

    Romco walks the finished work with the owner or manager, fixes the punch items and hands over the color and product schedule.

Questions

Commercial painting in Kendall

Does a Kendall business need a permit to repaint?

Not for interior or exterior paint. Kendall is unincorporated, and the county does not require a building permit for painting. Watertight roof coatings, painted wall signs and parking-lot seal coating are different, and Romco files for those.

What does a commercial repaint cost?

It depends on surface area, height, access, the condition of the substrate and the rules at the address. A coastal tower on swing stages and a one-story strip center inland are different jobs. Romco walks the building, writes the scope down and quotes that scope. No figures appear on this site because a number given before the walk would not hold.

What if the building has lead paint?

The federal RRP rule covers work that disturbs painted surfaces in pre-1978 housing and in child-occupied facilities, such as a pre-1978 building where children under six come regularly, and that work needs a certified firm. OSHA's lead standard covers painting as construction work in any building. Romco checks whether the rule applies and arranges a qualified firm when it does.

How long does a commercial painting job take?

No date is promised up front. The schedule hangs on approvals such as a Coral Gables Board of Architects review, on how much of the building can be closed off at once, and on rain between May 15 and October 15. Romco gives a sequence with its dependencies once those are known.
