Doral permits work inside city limits
Doral's Building Department issues building permits, reviews plans and inspects work for properties in the city, with applications through its online self-service portal. ZIP codes associated with Doral also cover unincorporated Miami-Dade County and neighboring cities, where a different building department applies.
Recertification applies to many older buildings
Doral's Building Department runs the Miami-Dade building recertification program in the city. Buildings generally come due at 30 years old and every 10 years after that; single-family homes and duplexes are exempt. The required reports are structural and electrical, so a recertification is not the same thing as a roof inspection.
Roofing in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone
The Florida Building Code places Miami-Dade County in its High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which has its own roofing sections. Roofing systems there need a valid, current product approval, and a permit is required for applying, repairing or maintaining roofing. For a warehouse or commercial roof, ask the contractor to show the approved system they plan to install.
Doral roofing questions
My Doral building is due for recertification. Does that cover the roof?
The city describes the required reports as structural and electrical, prepared by a Florida-registered engineer or architect. Ask your design professional what the structural report covers, and request a separate roof inspection if you want the roof itself assessed.
Does a commercial roof in Doral need special product approvals?
Yes. Miami-Dade County is part of the Florida Building Code's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, where roofing components and systems must carry a valid, current product approval. Ask the contractor for the approval that covers their proposed system.
