Hialeah Gardens incorporated in 1948 as a small rural community known for horse farms and open pasture; today it is built out along Okeechobee Road and the Palmetto Expressway corridor, one of Miami-Dade County’s fastest-growing municipalities packed into just over three square miles. That growth happened in waves rather than all at once, so the city’s housing stock ranges from modest mid-century single-family homes to much newer construction, and many of the older properties are due for the kind of update a growing family actually needs: new roofing, updated electrical, and a floor plan reworked for how people live today.

Elbaz Construction works with Hialeah Gardens homeowners on exactly that kind of transition, bringing an older ranch-style home up to current codes and current living, or adding the square footage a multi-generational household needs without giving up the lot’s usable yard space. We handle permitting with the City of Hialeah Gardens and Miami-Dade County directly, so a remodel or addition here moves from plan to permit to construction without the homeowner having to manage three separate relationships.
