Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Ojus
Hiring a general contractor in Ojus means getting a single point of accountability for the whole job: permits, crew scheduling, material orders, inspections, and the final walkthrough. A typical kitchen remodel in Ojus runs $14,000 – $45,000, while a full home addition lands between $45,000 and $130,000 depending on scope and existing conditions. Our team knows the housing stock along West Dixie Highway and the neighborhoods off NE 203rd Street, and we bring that familiarity to every estimate. Call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll put the full scope and price in writing before anything gets torn out.
Ojus sits right at the Miami-Dade/Broward line, and its housing stock is split between 1950s-era single-family homes and newer infill townhomes, which means a general contractor here routinely pulls two very different scopes on the same street. That split matters because older Ojus homes often hide non-permitted prior work behind the drywall, so a remodel that looks simple on the walkthrough can trigger unplanned permitting before it can close. We plan for that reality from the first site visit.
Why Bradford Remodeling Is Ojus’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Bradford Remodeling operates on The Garrison Standard, which has been part of the Garrison Partners family since 2004. Every project gets a written price before any work starts. That is not a courtesy. It is the non-negotiable baseline. Homeowners in Ojus who have been burned by no-shows and surprise invoices tend to notice that difference immediately.
Curtis Lane leads our work in Ojus, and he runs crews the way a by-the-book contractor should: background-checked, uniformed technicians who arrive when they say they will. We also answer the phone with a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No answering service maze. When an Ojus homeowner calls about a remodel off Ives Dairy Road, a person picks up.
Our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every completed project. If the work fails inside that window, Bradford returns and corrects it at no charge. That guarantee is written, signed, and in the homeowner’s hand at job close.
Styles & brands we work with
Remodeling Contractor in Ojus
A remodeling contractor in Ojus takes a room or a whole home down to its bones and rebuilds it to current code, current load requirements, and the homeowner’s actual use pattern. The job involves demolition, rough-in for plumbing and electrical, framing changes, surface finishes, and a final inspection. General Contractor work of this scope in Ojus typically starts with a wall-by-wall assessment, because older homes near the county line often carry unpermitted prior work that changes the permit picture before the first cabinet gets ordered.
Scoping an Older Ojus Home
On a 1960s block near NE 203rd Street, our crew opened up what the homeowner thought was a straightforward galley-kitchen remodel and found the sink drain rough-in tied into a line that was never permitted. We stopped, pulled the permit to bring it current, and the inspector signed off before we set the KraftMaid cabinets. It added time, but it kept the whole scope legal and closeable.
Kitchen and Bath Remodel Costs
A small kitchen remodel in Ojus runs $9,000 – $20,000. A full kitchen with layout changes lands at $14,000 – $45,000. Bathroom remodels run $9,000 – $28,000, and a walk-in shower installation sits at $4,500 – $12,000. These ranges reflect Ojus labor rates, material costs, and the permitting realities of Miami-Dade.
Licensed General Contractor in Ojus
A licensed general contractor in Ojus is the party responsible for pulling permits, scheduling inspections, and ensuring the work meets Miami-Dade code enforcement standards. When a homeowner hires a licensed GC, the permit application carries the contractor’s license and insurance, which shifts code liability off the homeowner. For Ojus properties near the Broward line, that responsibility gets more granular: permitting and inspection sign-off route differently depending on which side of the line the property sits on.
What the License Means on Ojus Jobs
State and county licensing means the contractor carries workers’ compensation and general liability, files the notice of commencement, and pulls the building permit in their own name. It also means the inspector has a licensed party to hold accountable. For homeowners, that is the difference between a remodel that closes clean and one that stalls at final inspection.
When a Licensed GC Is Required
Structural work, window replacement, roof replacement, and any electrical or plumbing change in an Ojus home requires a licensed contractor. A homeowner cannot legally pull a permit for work they are hiring out, and unpermitted work becomes a disclosure problem at resale. We pull permits, schedule the inspector, and stay on site until the sign-off.
Trusted Brands We Service in Ojus
Our Ojus crews install KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Caesarstone surfaces, Kohler and Moen fixtures, GAF and James Hardie exterior products, and Therma-Tru doors.

When a countertop or door slab gets delayed, we know exactly which fabricators in South Florida can turn it around.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Ojus Homes
- Unpermitted prior work behind the drywall. Older Ojus homes from the 1950s and 1960s frequently have plumbing, electrical, or framing that was done without a permit. A remodel that opens a wall can trigger a code violation that must be corrected before the new work passes inspection.
- Bidding a remodel off a walkthrough alone. A kitchen or bath can look fine on the surface while the substrate, rough-in, or load path underneath is compromised. We include an inspection contingency in every older-home estimate so the price has a mechanism for what we find.
- Confusion at the Miami-Dade/Broward county line. Ojus addresses route differently depending on which side of the line the parcel sits on. Permitting, inspection scheduling, and even wind-load requirements can shift. We verify jurisdiction before we write the estimate.
- Allowance mismatches mid-job. When a homeowner picks a Cambria slab that runs past the allowance, and there is no written draw schedule, the invoice surprise is almost guaranteed. We write allowances and draws into the contract before the first tool comes out.
Pricing for General Contractor in Ojus, FL
Actual Ojus pricing starts with the scope line items below. What moves the number: the age of the home, whether prior work was permitted, the finish level of cabinetry and surfaces, and whether the layout changes. We do not price by square foot alone, because a 1962 rancher off NE 199th Street and a newer townhome off Ives Dairy do not cost the same to remodel even when the room dimensions match.

|---|---|
| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Small Kitchen Remodel | $9,000 – $20,000 |

FAQs About General Contractor in Ojus
Yes. Any kitchen remodel in Ojus that moves plumbing, electrical, or load-bearing walls requires a Miami-Dade building permit, and the contractor pulls it in their own name. Cabinet-only refreshes without utility changes may not require one, but we verify with the municipality before the estimate is final. Call (903) 568-7222 and we will confirm what applies to your address.
We price an older Ojus home with a contingency line for code corrections we cannot see until walls open. A 1950s or 1960s house typically carries some unpermitted prior work, and that gets discovered during rough-in, not at final inspection. The written estimate includes the base scope plus a documented allowance for bringing discovered conditions to code.
A draw schedule ties payments to completed milestones: deposit, demolition and rough-in, inspections passed, and final walkthrough. We write the schedule into the contract before work starts, so you never get asked for money ahead of the work it pays for. Each draw is tied to a defined scope item, not a calendar date.
No. Ojus parcels near the county line route permitting and inspection differently depending on which side of the line the parcel sits on, and wind-load and flood zone requirements can shift too. We verify the jurisdiction and fence in the correct permit path before we write the estimate, so the job does not stall at the counter.
A kitchen remodel in Ojus typically runs 6 – 10 weeks from demo to final inspection, assuming no major code corrections. A bathroom runs 3 – 6 weeks. A home addition runs 4 – 8 months depending on plan review and weather windows. Older homes near the county line can add 1 – 2 weeks if discovered unpermitted work requires a permit pull and re-inspection.
