General Contractor in Winter Park, FL
Designed in 3D, permitted with the right Orange County or city office, and built by a licensed Florida general contractor that also holds its own plumbing license.
General contractor projects in Winter Park
Winter Park general contracting projects tend to be the ones that cross several reviews at once: a rear addition on a 1950s ranch, a second-story addition, a garage converted to a suite, or a whole-house renovation before the owners move in. As a Florida Certified General Contractor, we can build and remodel residential projects of any size and coordinate design, structure, plumbing, electrical and finishes under one schedule.
What changes for a general contractor in Winter Park
In Winter Park, an addition often triggers three things before the building permit: zoning setbacks and lot coverage, the city's tree removal permit for protected trees near the footprint, and, for designated historic properties, a Certificate of Review for the exterior. We sort those out early so the design you approve is buildable. Projects on unincorporated parcels with a Winter Park address follow Orange County rules instead, and we file there.
Local details we plan around
- Designated historic properties and homes inside a designated district need a Certificate of Review for exterior additions or alterations before work starts; interior kitchens and baths are generally not part of it.
- Protected trees on private property need a city tree removal permit, so additions, new patios and even staging near a large oak have to be planned around the canopy.
- A Winter Park mailing address does not guarantee city permitting; parts of 32792 are unincorporated Orange County and are permitted by the county.
- Homes from the 1920s to the 1960s often have plaster walls, cast iron drains and limited electrical service that need upgrading during a kitchen or bath remodel.

Scope
What the work includes
Planning and estimating
We visit the property, measure, review what you want built and what the structure allows, and turn it into a written scope and estimate you can compare line by line.
Design and 3D rendering
For remodels we build a 3D rendering from the measurements, and our designer helps with selections, so the plan is settled before demolition rather than during it.
Permits and code compliance
We apply for permits in our own name, prepare the drawings the building department needs, and build to the Florida Building Code, which local departments enforce.
Trade scheduling and supervision
Framing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, drywall, tile, cabinets and paint, scheduled in the right order and supervised so each trade leaves the job ready for the next one.
Plumbing under our own license
Because we also hold a Certified Plumbing Contractor license, drain moves, repiping within the scope and fixture work are done under our license rather than coordinated with an outside company.
Materials and ordering
We order the material, check deliveries against your selections before installation, and keep track of long-lead items such as cabinets, windows and custom glass.
Our process
How a general contractor in Winter Park runs
The same five steps on every kitchen, bath and renovation. Online requests get a call back within 24 to 48 hours.
- 01
We visit you at home
We measure the space, note where plumbing, gas and electrical run today, and ask how you use the room. The design starts at this visit.
- 02
3D design rendering
Your measurements become a 3D model, so you see the layout, cabinet heights and finishes before anything is ordered or torn out.
- 03
Material selection
You choose cabinets, counters, tile and fixtures with our designer in the Kingspointe Pkwy showroom, against the final design.
- 04
Ordering and permits
We order material, check every item against your selections, and pull the permits the scope needs.
- 05
We build, then walk it with you
Our crew and licensed trades do the work and pass inspections. We finish with a walk-through, room by room.

"It is a pleasure to recommend Prime Construction / Kitchens for any of your home remodeling needs. Prime Construction helped me diagnose a problem with a wall in my garage related to a window leak. Prime Construction shared with me how I could address the issue myself and saved me the cost of a dispatch by their team. They were only concerned with helping me resolve my issue. I give my full recommendation to Prime Construction. Thank you"

FAQ
General Contractor in Winter Park: questions
Do not see your question? Call us or send the estimate form and we will answer it on the phone.
Do I need Historic Preservation Board approval to remodel my Winter Park kitchen?
Only if the home is on the Winter Park Register of Historic Places or inside a designated historic district, and only for exterior changes. A kitchen that stays within the existing walls usually needs just the building permit. If the remodel adds a window, moves an exterior door or adds square footage, the property needs a Certificate of Review first, and we plan the schedule around that hearing or committee review.
Can I remove a tree to build an addition in Winter Park?
Sometimes, but not without a permit. Winter Park requires a tree removal permit for protected trees on private property, and removal can come with replanting or a payment into the city's tree fund. We look at the trees before designing an addition, because placing the footprint to save a large oak is often simpler than permitting its removal.
What is required to be a contractor in Florida?
A state certified contractor in Florida must be licensed by the DBPR's Construction Industry Licensing Board. That generally means documented experience in the trade, passing the state exams on trade knowledge and business and finance, showing financial responsibility, carrying insurance and passing a background check. The license must be renewed and kept active. You can check any contractor's status at myfloridalicense.com.
How do I verify a general contractor's license in Florida?
Use the license search at myfloridalicense.com. Search by license number or business name, then confirm the license is current and active, the type covers your project (CGC, CBC or CRC) and the name matches the company on your contract. Our licenses are CGC1535686 (Certified General Contractor) and CFC1433952 (Certified Plumbing Contractor).
Should I pay a contractor 50% upfront?
We suggest not paying far ahead of the work. A fair payment schedule follows milestones you can see, such as material ordered, rough-in inspected, major installation complete and final walk-through. Our schedule is tied to project milestones and written into the contract before work begins. Be cautious of anyone who wants most of the price before starting or will not put the schedule in writing.
