Most people don't know what a general contractor actually does. That's not your fault — nobody ever explains it.
So that's what this page is for.
We're Brunt & Company, a licensed general contractor in South Florida. Yes, we build — you'll see our projects here. But most of what determines whether your project succeeds happens on paper, before and after the hammers: permits, inspections, code compliance. That's the part nobody shows you, so that's the part we explain.
Around here you'll learn:
— What to do when a code violation notice shows up (and why ignoring it turns a $500 problem into a lien)
— What actually needs a permit in Florida — including things that will surprise you
— What HOAs and building departments can legally require of you
— How to hire a contractor without getting burned
— What's really happening at our active job sites, step by step
No jargon. No scare tactics. Just the processes explained straight, by people who deal with them every day.
Holding a violation notice or a letter from the building department right now? Send us a message — tell us what it says, and we'll tell you what it means.
