Key Cost Driver

Sinkhole assessment requirements and hurricane-code compliance for structural changes

Sinkhole risk zones require geological assessments before major structural modifications, adding $500-$2,000 to renovation planning costs. Tile and terrazzo are preferred over hardwood in kitchen remodels due to superior moisture and termite resistance in the subtropical climate.
