Contractor Enforcement
The Miami-Dade County Consumer and Neighborhood Protection Division enforces compliance with the Florida Building Code, Chapter 10 of the Miami-Dade County Code of Ordinances and applicable provisions of state law to ensure contractors are properly licensed and operating legally. Contractor enforcement protects residents from fraud, unsafe construction practices and unlicensed activity that can put both people and property at risk.
The division investigates complaints, issues citations and takes enforcement action against contractors and unlicensed individuals performing work without the proper qualifications or permits.
Notice Regarding Anonymous Complaints
Florida Statute 125.69 requires that a code inspector only proceed to investigate an anonymous complaint if the code inspector determines, based only on the information from the complaint, that the violation reported presents an imminent threat to the public health, safety, or welfare or imminent destruction of habitat or sensitive resources. If a code inspector does not have enough information or determines that the information provided does not indicate an imminent threat, then the anonymous complaint will not be investigated.
If you wish to remain anonymous, you understand that your complaint will not be investigated if the code inspector determines they do not have enough information or that the information provided does not indicate an imminent threat.
If you do not want to remain anonymous, an investigation can proceed regardless of whether there is an imminent threat, but you must provide both your name and address.
