Beware of Unqualified Firms

Many companies advertise recertification services but lack the proper licenses, experience, or insurance. Protect your property by choosing a firm that:

  • Is licensed by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR).
  • Employs in-house licensed Architects and Engineers, not subcontractors.
  • Carries Professional Liability Insurance to protect you from potential risks.

Going with the cheapest option may seem appealing, but it can lead to failed inspections, additional costs, and unnecessary stress. Choose professionals who can guarantee your building’s compliance and safety.

The 40/50 Year Recertification is a mandatory inspection required by

Miami-Dade County Code Section 8-11(f)

Florida Building Code Section 110.15 for Broward County

This process ensures that buildings are structurally and electrically safe for continued occupancy. Recent updates now require recertification for buildings 30 years or older, as recorded by the County Property Appraiser.

If you’ve received a notice from the city, it’s your responsibility as a property owner to hire a licensed and qualified professional to perform the required inspections and submit the necessary reports.

The community where I live was very fortunate to have Maurin and Eduardo in the 40-year recertification process. They guided us throughout the entire process with Miami-Dade County. Maurin, the engineer's assistant, was very hardworking, and always very kind. She kept us informed of every progress, was always attentive to everything, and responded to every request from the County throughout the process. The engineer Eduardo Barreto and his team also replaced the electrical boxes in all 13 buildings in our community, built in 1984 and the boxes were in a very bad condition. This project was the most important step toward passing the recertification. They worked with great professionalism and completed the work in record time with incredible quality. Currently, 12 of the 13 buildings have their recertification letters. Only one building remains in the process but it has nothing to do with the engineer and his team. I recommend this company without any hesitation and would hire them again for the next recertification in 10 years.

I work with Mr Barreto and Maureen trying to get a 40 year certification for our church. After the engineer did what he was supposed to we sent the paperwork to Dade County. Mr Barreto did a wonderful job getting what we needed to do, now we’re just waiting on the county. This is something that I never done before so I was lost in trying to figure out what would be happening, Ms. Maureen was a gym. She hoped by telling me every step on what would be happening. This company is very good. I recommend them very highly.

As the president of my building, I recently completed the 50-year recertification, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service provided. The engineer efficiently addressed and corrected the violations issued by the Fire Department. I am extremely grateful for their professionalism, speed, and timely execution of the project. Thanks to their expertise and efficiency, we were able to avoid fines, and everything was handled smoothly and on schedule. I highly recommend their services.

I recently had the pleasure of working with 40 Year Building Recertification Inspection for the 50-year recertification of one of the condominiums I manage, and the experience was exceptional. The entire process was seamless from start to finish, with the engineer taking care of every detail, allowing me to focus on other responsibilities. All required documents were provided promptly and accurately, ensuring everything was signed and processed on time. The engineer was always available to answer the board of directors' questions and demonstrated deep expertise in the recertification process. Additionally, the support team was outstanding, further contributing to the smooth execution. Thank you for making this journey stress-free and efficient. I highly recommend their services!
