Boca Raton is dense with association-governed common area: oceanfront towers along A1A, mid-rise and garden condos east of Federal, and the clubhouses of dozens of country-club communities to the west. J. Perry & Sons renovates lobbies, corridors, elevator landings, clubrooms and pool decks for boards, management companies and their designers as the general contractor who holds the permit, carries the insurance and phases the work around residents. Scope and budget levels are on our condo lobby and common-area renovation page; see also commercial renovation in Boca Raton.

Boca Raton associations and what that means for a common-area project
Oceanfront towers on A1A from the 1970s and 1980s are working through the state's milestone inspection and reserve requirements. Pool decks over parking often appear in the engineer's report, and finish work follows the structural and waterproofing repair rather than covering it. We coordinate both so the board does not pay twice.
Country-club communities in western Boca run clubhouse work through a house committee as well as the board, in the summer closure. Card rooms, grills, fitness and locker rooms are renovated in one window, priced with alternates by level so the committee lands inside its budget year.
Many of these communities carry Boca Raton addresses but sit in unincorporated Palm Beach County, so the permit goes through the county rather than the City of Boca Raton Building Division; we confirm jurisdiction before the proposal goes to the board. Material alterations to common elements may need an owner vote above the declaration's threshold; counsel decides, and we supply the scope, renderings and pricing the vote relies on. Associations commonly require $1 million general liability and additional-insured status, issued before mobilization.

How we do it in Boca Raton
- Board scope and designer's plan. Pricing from the designer's finish plan, or from a site walk with the manager and a written refresh scope the board can approve.
- Board proposal. Line-item pricing by area with alternates by finish level, a phasing plan, and the insurance and license documents the association's attorney requests.
- Permit and resident notices. Permit through the city or county; the manager notices residents and we post daily updates at the elevators.
- Protection and phasing. Temporary entrance path, barriers, padded service elevator, and a sequence that keeps the front desk, mail and packages running.
- Demolition, leveling, finishes. Existing floor and wall finishes out, slab ground and moisture-tested, self-leveler where large-format tile needs it at $3–$6 per sq ft; porcelain or stone set with a leveling system and movement joints, slab or stone feature walls anchored, millwork, ceiling, lighting and paint under one contract.
- Punch and closeout. Designer's walkthrough, punch, and a file with permit finals, product data, lien releases and attic stock for the association's records.
Permits and compliance handled. J. Perry & Sons pulls the permit, schedules the inspections, and builds to the city and county codes that apply — Broward and Palm Beach municipal building departments, HVHZ requirements where they apply, and HOA/condo association rules.

Condo lobby and common-area renovation in Boca Raton — FAQ
What does a condo lobby renovation cost in Boca Raton? $40–$70 per sq ft for a refresh, $70–$130 for a mid-range redesign with stone or slab walls and a new desk, and $130–$300+ for high-end stone and millwork. A 1,500 sq ft lobby runs $60,000 to $450,000+ across those levels.
Does our Boca Raton board need an owner vote? Often, when the work is a material alteration of a common element above the declaration's cost threshold. Counsel decides; we provide the scope, pricing and renderings the vote is based on.
Is the permit through the city or the county? It depends on where the building sits. Addresses inside the city limits go through the City of Boca Raton Building Division; many western country-club communities are unincorporated and go through Palm Beach County. We confirm before pricing.
Can the pool deck be redone before the milestone repairs? No. Finish work over a deck flagged in the engineer's report waits for the structural and waterproofing repair. We coordinate both.
