Why Professional Review Matters
Homeowner modifications—such as installing new windows, removing interior walls, updating electrical panels, or modifying plumbing layouts—often involve structural and life-safety considerations. These changes must be evaluated:
• For compliance with the Florida Building Code
• For structural integrity (especially load-bearing walls, balcony slabs, waterproofing, and building envelope systems)
• To ensure proper installation of hurricane-rated windows and doors
• To protect the building’s electrical, mechanical, and fire protection systems
• For consistency with the community’s architectural standards
Property managers and volunteer board members should not be expected to carry the burden of reviewing complex technical documents or determining whether a modification affects the building structure. This work requires specialized knowledge and the involvement of licensed professionals.
