Residential Condo Restoration in Palm Beach Gardens
Palm Beach Gardens' 1980s PGA National condos (35-45 years old) suffer coating cycle failure from intense UV and thermal shock, not chloride penetration. Stucco, deck membranes, and caulking have failed their service life.

Why Act Now: The Case for Palm Beach Gardens HOA Boards and Condo Associations
Florida's state milestone inspection statute (SB 4-D, Florida Statute 553.899) requires 30-year inspections for inland condo buildings more than 3 miles from the coastline, enforced through the Palm Beach County building department. For PGA National's condo communities built in the 1980s -now 35 to 45 years old -the initial milestone inspection threshold has already been crossed, and Palm Beach County began active enforcement in 2024 with fines of up to \$500 per day for continued non-compliance. For Intracoastal-adjacent buildings along Prosperity Farms Road that may fall within 3 miles of tidal water, the 25-year threshold may apply -boards should verify exact coastal proximity through Palm Beach County's GIS tools. For a full walkthrough of what the inspection process covers, the Florida Condo 40-Year Recertification Guide covers Phase 1, Phase 2, and deficiency remediation requirements.
The Landmark's completed concrete restoration programme and SIRS reserve study -confirmed across multiple MLS listings as completed with no pending assessments -demonstrates that Palm Beach Gardens' newest and most prominent condo building has already moved through the inspection and restoration cycle. For the 1980s PGA National condo inventory entering that same cycle now, the condition survey determines the scope.
Deferred restoration on Palm Beach Gardens' 1980s condo buildings compounds cost with every wet season. A stucco coating that has cycled past its service life on south-facing PGA National elevations is no longer functioning as a moisture barrier -each of South Florida's 60-plus annual inches of rainfall reaches the substrate directly. The stucco delamination and joint failure that results is more expensive to remediate when it is systemic than when it is addressed at the first visible signs of coating breakdown. For detail on how concrete corrosion develops when moisture infiltration is left unaddressed, the Concrete Corrosion Explained post covers the progression from coating failure to substrate damage.
Florida's SIRS reserve study requirement under HB 913 obligates condo associations of three habitable stories or more to maintain a baseline funding plan for structural and waterproofing components, with reserve cash maintained above zero throughout the funding period. Budgets adopted after December 31, 2024 may not waive or reduce reserves for SIRS components. The Landmark's "SIRS completed and fully reserved" status -marketed explicitly in MLS listings -illustrates what SIRS compliance looks like in practice for Palm Beach Gardens boards.
Restoration work at PGA National and BallenIsles is delivered in phased programmes that keep occupied buildings fully operational throughout the scope -golf course access, community amenities, and unit balcony access are maintained throughout.
Every scope is backed by a written workmanship warranty with full documentation formatted for the Palm Beach County building department's milestone inspection file, the engineer of record, and the SIRS baseline funding plan.

Our 6-Step Process
From First Call To Final Walkthrough
Every project follows the same disciplined sequence. No improvising, no shortcuts.
Free On-Site Assessment
We come to your property, examine every affected surface in person, and test for delamination and depth of deterioration before any contract is discussed.
Written Scope And Fixed-Price Proposal
We document exactly what the restoration involves and provide a fixed-price written proposal. No open-ended estimates, no surprises.
Surface Preparation
Failed material is removed to sound concrete using methods appropriate to the surface and degree of deterioration. The most common reason patches fail in South Florida is shortcuts here.
Repair And Restoration
Repair mortars, injection resins, overlays, or stucco resurfacing are applied in the correct sequence. On Mizner-era properties, Jahn mortars under our certified protocols.
Protective Treatment
The appropriate sealer or coating is applied once repairs have cured. This step closes the surface against future chloride infiltration. It is not optional in South Florida's environment.
Final Walkthrough
We walk every restored surface with the homeowner before we leave. If anything does not meet the standard we set at the start, we address it before the project closes.
The Honest Answer
Restoration Vs Replacement
Some contractors push replacement because it generates a larger contract. We do not. Here is the head-to-head.
Restoration
What we recommend in the majority of cases we assess in Palm Beach Gardens.
Replacement
When the substrate is gone or the structure is past saving.
We give you a straight answer after the assessment, not after looking at the size of the contract.

Frequently Asked
Palm Beach Gardens Condo Restoration FAQ
The questions Palm Beach Gardens homeowners ask most. Tap any to expand.
Florida's state milestone inspection law (SB 4-D, Florida Statute 553.899) applies to all qualifying condo buildings of three habitable stories or more in Palm Beach Gardens, enforced through the Palm Beach County building department. Because Palm Beach Gardens is approximately five miles inland from the Atlantic Ocean, most of the city's condo buildings -including PGA National's 1980s golf villa communities -are more than 3 miles from the coastline and therefore subject to the 30-year threshold rather than the 25-year coastal standard. However, Intracoastal-adjacent buildings along the Prosperity Farms Road corridor may be within 3 miles of tidal water (the Intracoastal connects to the Atlantic through Jupiter Inlet and Lake Worth Inlet), and boards at those buildings should verify their exact coastal proximity through Palm Beach County's GIS mapping tools. PGA National's 1980s condo buildings are now 35 to 45 years old -past the 30-year initial inspection threshold -and are in active enforcement. For the full milestone inspection timeline, Phase 1 and Phase 2 requirements, and deficiency remediation process, the Florida Condo 40-Year Recertification Guide is the relevant reference.
