Custom homes in Islamorada — designed to clear the Village's review.

“If you want a contractor who truly looks out for your best interests, you need to hire Summerland Builders. My original enclosed downstairs was only about 800 sq ft, and the rest was just a covered open space facing the pool. Mercedes, who is both a dear friend of mine and a general contractor in Key Largo, gave me excellent advice that transformed my property in the ground floor. She knew the building department was about to change the flood elevation requirements to 10 feet, and warned me that once the new rules passed, I wouldn't be able to get a permit for the ground floor ever again.

Following her guidance, we enclosed the rest of the downstairs with a gorgeous wall of glass windows facing the pool. Thanks to her, my enclosed space jumped to 2,800 sq ft before the code changes took effect. The space is absolutely beautiful, and it massively increased the overall value of my home. I highly recommend Mercedes and her team to anyone looking to build or renovate!”
