Building in Pompano Beach

Most of Pompano Beach’s homes were built from the 1950s through the 1970s. The city says the whole city can be considered flood-prone, and FEMA maps place over 32% of its buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area.

The city sets finished floor elevation standards above the national minimum for new construction and substantial improvements. On waterfront lots, the seawall and tidal flood barrier standards adopted in January 2022 set a minimum seawall height and when a seawall must be raised.

Homes here sit inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so new structure is engineered for wind loads from the roof down to the foundation.

Don’t just take our word for it!

"Big thanks to Calvin and his entire crew for the work they did for me on my Dad's house. Always professional while there, quality work, and finished on time as promised. Would highly recommend."
PJ Kennedy Home Owner
"Calvin and the team at Harris Contracting completed 2 significant remodeling projects at my home. The first was a bathroom remodel and the second was the installation of a second floor mezzanine. I was impressed with the teams responsiveness and overall quality of the work. We had a few bumps along the way, but Calvin ensured any issues were addressed promptly. They showed up when agreed and also worked into the evenings and some weekend days to make sure the projects stayed on track. Having experienced some very difficult and unprofessional contractors in Florida, Harris Contracting are professional company, charging a fair price and delivered on my expectations. Recommended."

Questions homeowners in Pompano Beach ask

How much do ground-floor home additions cost in Pompano Beach?

It depends on the size of the project and the finish package you choose: Essential, Signature or Legacy. Pricing varies based on project type, size, complexity, existing conditions, structural requirements, and the finish level selected. Our Instant Pricer gives you a preliminary planning range for your project type and size in about a minute, and after a site visit you receive a preliminary pricing assessment with a realistic construction investment range.

Pricing shown is for preliminary planning purposes only and is not a quote or construction proposal. Final pricing is determined after pre-construction/design and owner approval of the construction plans.

Who issues building permits for an addition in Pompano Beach?

Residential building permits in Pompano Beach are issued by the City of Pompano Beach Building Department. Applications go through Click2Gov Building Permits. Harris Contracting coordinates permitting with the municipality and the design professionals as part of every project.

Does an addition in Pompano Beach have to meet higher floor elevations?

The city’s flood ordinance sets finished floor elevation standards above the national minimum for new construction and substantial improvements. The flood zone and the scope of the project decide what applies to a given home.

How long does a home addition take to build?

As a general planning guideline, construction for many additions may take approximately 4–8 months after permits are issued.

Design, engineering and permitting occur before construction and can add several months depending on the project and municipality. Timelines vary with project size and complexity, design requirements, permitting time, material lead times, site conditions and owner selections. These are general planning ranges, not guaranteed completion dates.

Does Harris Contracting handle design, engineering and permits?

Yes. Under a separate pre-construction agreement, Harris Contracting coordinates the pre-construction services a project requires, which may include surveys, zoning and feasibility review, existing-condition documentation, architectural design, structural engineering and MEP engineering. We then coordinate permitting with the municipality and the design professionals.
