40 answers — across custom homes, marble craftsmanship, kitchens and bathrooms, working with our team, and where we build across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Palm Beach. If your question isn’t here, talk to us directly.
How a project starts, who's on the team, and what to expect across the engagement.
Luxury custom homes, whole-house gut renovations, and bespoke renovation work — kitchens, bathrooms, and marble craftsmanship — across Florida. Marble work runs through Moros Marbles, our marble brand, with slab selection, fabrication, and installation handled in-house alongside the rest of the build.
Yes. Moros Construction is a State of Florida Certified Builder, license #CBC1265082. We're licensed, insured, and compliant with Florida building codes and the local jurisdictions we work in across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties.
For the vast majority of trades, no. Every core trade on a Moros project is part of our own workforce — framing, concrete, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, millwork, marble, tile, drywall, and finish. The only exception is specialized work that falls outside our licensed scope, where we bring in vetted subcontractors under our direct supervision and license.
One principal walks every project from day one through handoff — no mid-project handoffs, no rotating points of contact. Behind that principal is our in-house team of 150+ trades. The principal you meet at the consultation is the same person you call about the punch list.
Estimates are line-item and transparent, revisited at agreed milestones rather than buried in a single bid. Change orders are written and approved before work happens, never after. We share where money is going so trade-offs are made with full information rather than discovered at the end of the project.
Three phases — pre-construction (design-build, scheduling, estimating, permits), construction (every trade in-house under one schedule), and post-construction (Certificate of Occupancy, as-built documentation, warranty, punch list). The same principal stays with you the whole time.
Call or text 786-773-7561 (cell) or 786-588-5587 (office), or email info@morosconstruction.com. We respond within one business day and schedule a consultation — typically a site visit or call to scope the project, followed by a written proposal.
Monday through Friday, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern. We're closed on weekends, but email reaches the team and we respond on the next business day.
Florida coverage and how neighborhood context shapes the project.
Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Monroe (Florida Keys — Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon), Collier, and Lee counties. That includes Miami, Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Key Biscayne, Brickell, Miami Beach, Coconut Grove, Bal Harbour, Wynwood, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Wellington, and the surrounding areas. Reach out to confirm coverage for a specific address.
Yes. Fort Lauderdale, the Las Olas Isles, Rio Vista, and the rest of the Broward waterfront corridor are core service areas. Coastal detailing, dock and seawall coordination, and Broward County permitting are part of our routine project process.
Yes. We work across Palm Beach County — including the Town of Palm Beach (under ARCOM design review), West Palm Beach (El Cid, Flamingo Park, SoSo), Boca Raton (Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, Old Floresta, beachfront), and surrounding neighborhoods. Coastal hurricane standards and historic-overlay design review are part of how we plan the project.
Yes. We've completed projects under Coral Gables HEPB review, Town of Palm Beach ARCOM review, and other historic overlays. The earlier we're engaged in design, the more we can do to integrate the design intent with the historic-district requirements.
Yes. For coastal residences in Key Biscayne, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, the barrier islands, and the Palm Beach coast, NOA-rated impact glazing, roofing assemblies, and structural detailing are baseline. We integrate hurricane standards into the architect's design intent from schematic forward, not as a retrofit at the end.
Miami-Dade permitting is its own discipline — review cycles, neighborhood overlays, and historic-district approvals each add steps. We manage the permit set from drawings through Certificate of Occupancy and have established working relationships with the relevant building departments. Permit timeline varies project-to-project; we share the realistic schedule once scope is locked.
Ground-up builds, gut renovations, and the full custom-home arc.
Ground-up custom homes, whole-house gut renovations, hurricane-rated coastal residences, and historic-district projects under HEPB or ARCOM review. The execution differs in every one — we deliver against all of them.
Both. Many clients come with an architect already engaged; others ask us to recommend one for the project's style, scale, and program. We've worked with the major Florida architecture firms across both contemporary and traditional vocabularies. The earlier we're engaged in design, the more we can do to keep the project on schedule and on budget.
For ground-up builds, no — there's no home to live in yet. For whole-house gut renovations, almost never — the structural and mechanical scope is incompatible with safe occupancy. For partial renovations or specific room programs, sometimes; we plan dust containment, contained access, and core systems carefully when that's the constraint.
Yes. Landscape and pools are often where the home meets the lot, and we manage them as part of the construction schedule. We work with landscape architects and pool designers regularly, integrating their work with structural, irrigation, and mechanical scope so nothing has to be reopened after handoff.
Every home we deliver is covered by a warranty package that includes structural, mechanical, and finish components. Specifics vary by project scope; we walk through the warranty document at handoff alongside as-builts, manuals, and care guides for marble, millwork, and finishes.
Slab selection, bookmatched fabrication, and full-room installation through Moros Marbles, our marble brand.
Marble comes to us through our long-standing quarry partners. The bulk of our material is hand-selected on the slab floor — we don't buy from photographs. For project-specific selection, we walk clients through the slab floor in person.
Two consecutive slabs cut from the same block are opened like a book so the veining mirrors itself at the seam. Done correctly, the join becomes invisible and the marble reads as a single, larger pattern. It requires careful slab selection, precise layout, and tight install tolerances — all things our team plans before the first cut.
Yes. Moros Marbles is our marble brand — fabrication and installation happen under one roof, on one schedule, with one quality standard. Marble itself comes through our long-standing quarry partners. Nothing about the stone work is subcontracted.
Marble is natural stone with mineral veining and a softer surface — the most expressive material in the category. Quartzite is harder and more acid-resistant but reads more uniform. Engineered quartz is man-made and the most durable, but lacks the depth of natural stone. We work with all three; clients choose marble when the room is meant to feel like a piece of architecture.
Kitchens (countertops, islands, full-height backsplashes), primary bathrooms (showers, vanity tops, slab walls), entry foyers, fireplace surrounds, staircases, and feature walls. Many of our projects have marble running through nearly every public room — and at least a moment of it in every private one.
Yes — interior marble is well-suited to Florida climate when sealed and maintained correctly. Exterior installations (pool surrounds, terrace counters, outdoor kitchens) need different substrate detailing, expansion planning, and sealing protocols for UV exposure, salt air, and seasonal humidity. We engineer those differently from interior surfaces.
pH-neutral stone cleaner only — never vinegar, bleach, or citrus-based products. Daily wipe with microfiber and warm water for kitchen surfaces; weekly pass with a dedicated stone cleaner to maintain the seal. We hand off a written care guide and a maintenance schedule at project handoff. Most kitchens benefit from a re-seal every 12–18 months; bathrooms last longer.
Yes. Our full marble catalog lives at morosmarbles.com. For project-specific selection, we walk clients through the slab floor in person so the choice is made with the room's lighting, scale, and adjacent finishes in mind.
Renovation work — luxury kitchens, primary bathrooms, secondary baths, powder rooms, and full spa programs.
Yes. All custom millwork is built in our own shop, CNC-cut, hand-assembled, and dry-fit in a dust-controlled environment before installation. Grain matching, panel alignment, and hardware integration are planned at the cut sheet, not in the field.
Marble is one of our core specialties. Through Moros Marbles, slab selection, fabrication, and installation are all in-house. Bookmatched islands, full-height slab backsplashes, and waterfall edges are planned alongside the cabinetry so the finished room reads as one piece.
All major luxury appliance brands — Sub-Zero, Wolf, Miele, Gaggenau, Thermador, La Cornue, BlueStar, and others. Cabinetry is engineered around the specific units selected, so panels, ventilation, and clearances are correct from day one.
Waterworks, Lefroy Brooks, Dornbracht, Kallista, THG, Watermark, and other major luxury fixture brands. Vanities and mechanical rough-ins are engineered around the specific fixtures selected.
Often, yes — especially for secondary bathrooms or contained kitchen scope. For primary-suite or whole-house work, clients often relocate temporarily; we plan around either scenario, with dust containment and contained access throughout. We'll talk through the realistic option when we scope the project.
Yes. Wet rooms — where the entire bathroom is the water zone, with no shower door — and full spa programs (steam, sauna, plunge tubs, lounge zones) are part of our routine bathroom scope. Substrate engineering, waterproofing, ventilation, and mechanical are planned in advance so nothing is reactive on site.
We focus on luxury custom-grade work — that's where our in-house cabinetry shop and Moros Marbles fabrication are an advantage. For clients who want furniture-grade millwork, integrated marble, and full mechanical re-engineering, we're built for that. We're not the right fit for production-level kitchen or bath refreshes.
Honest answers to the most-asked questions about project economics — and why a single number isn't possible up front.
It varies per project. Cost is shaped by size, structural complexity, mechanical scope, finish level, marble and millwork integration, landscape, and lot conditions. We estimate line-item by line-item, not by square-foot rule of thumb. For a project-specific estimate, reach out — we walk you through what shapes the number for your home.
It varies per project. Cost is shaped by cabinetry complexity, stone selection (marble through Moros Marbles, quartzite, or other), fixture and appliance package, and mechanical scope. We estimate line-item; for a project-specific number, talk to our team.
It varies per project. Cost is shaped by stone grade, surface area, complexity (bookmatching, miters, full-height walls, edge details), substrate prep, and how many rooms are integrated. Marble through Moros Marbles is priced as a turnkey package — selection, fabrication, installation, sealing — so there are no surprise add-ons after the slab is on the floor.
It varies per project. Schedules are shaped by size, finish complexity, structural systems, neighborhood permitting, and how much pre-construction planning happened before breaking ground. We give every client a project-specific schedule once the design is locked and trades are scoped — and we hold to it.
It varies per project. Schedules are shaped by millwork complexity, slab selection, mechanical scope, and whether the home is occupied. Pre-construction (design, cabinet engineering, slab selection, permits) is its own phase before demolition begins. We share a project-specific schedule once scope is locked.
Because for high-end custom work, every number is misleading without project context. A 7,000 sq ft Pinecrest estate, a Brickell penthouse gut renovation, and a Palm Beach historic-overlay home are three completely different project economics — and any range we published would be too wide to be useful or too narrow to be honest. We share project-specific estimates as soon as we understand the scope.
