What is 40-year building recertification in Miami-Dade?

The 40-year recertification program in Miami-Dade County (Section 8-11(f)) requires buildings 40 years or older to be inspected by a Licensed Professional Engineer. The inspection covers structural, electrical, illumination, and infrared thermography components. Buildings built in 1982 or earlier fall under the 40-year schedule. Coastal buildings within 3 miles of the coastline require recertification at 25 years; inland buildings at 30 years. You have 90 days from the notice date to comply. All Home Meters LLC provides full P.E.-sealed recertification packages accepted by BORA on first submission.

Who can perform 40-year recertification in Miami?

Only a Florida Licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) can sign and seal a 40-year building recertification report. At All Home Meters LLC, every recertification is performed and sealed by Armando Longueira, P.E. (FL License #67462, Eng. Company #28738). Reports are BORA-compliant and submitted as a complete package including structural, electrical, illumination, and thermography.

Is infrared thermography required for building recertification in Miami?

Yes. BORA guidelines require infrared thermography inspections for buildings with 400A or larger electrical service as part of the recertification process. The inspection must be performed by a certified thermographer using a NIST-calibrated infrared camera. Armando Longueira, P.E. holds Level III Thermographer certification (Infraspection Institute CIT®, ISO 18436-7 CAT III, ASNT SNT-TC-1A) and uses a NIST-calibrated FLIR E-96 camera.

What is a Milestone Structural Inspection in Florida?

Florida Senate Bill 4-D (2022) requires Milestone Structural Inspections for condominium and cooperative buildings 3 stories or taller statewide. Phase 1 is a visual inspection; Phase 2 is required if Phase 1 finds substantial structural deterioration. All Home Meters LLC performs both Phase 1 and Phase 2 Milestone Inspections throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and all Florida counties.

What is equipotential bonding and why does my pool need to be tested?

Equipotential bonding is a safety requirement under NEC Article 680 and NFPA 70 that ensures all metal components around a swimming pool are electrically connected to prevent electric shock. Testing verifies that the bonding is intact and properly grounded. All Home Meters LLC performs pool bonding and grounding tests and provides P.E.-sealed certification required for building permits, inspections, and recertification compliance.

What is a NFPA 70B Electrical Safety Maintenance Program?

NFPA 70B 2023 is the Recommended Practice for Electrical Equipment Maintenance. An Electrical Safety Maintenance Program is a formal documented program for the inspection, testing, and maintenance of electrical equipment in commercial facilities. All Home Meters LLC creates, implements, consults on, and audits NFPA 70B programs for commercial properties.

What counties does All Home Meters serve?

All Home Meters LLC serves Miami-Dade County, Broward County, and Palm Beach County for all engineering inspection services including 40-year recertification, infrared thermography, structural inspections, and electrical safety inspections. Milestone Structural Inspections are available statewide across Florida.

Can infrared thermography detect hidden electrical issues?

Yes. Thermal imaging detects hidden wiring faults, overheating conduits, overloaded circuits, loose connections, and hot spots in panels and switchgear that are not visible to the naked eye. Inspections are non-invasive and performed while systems are energized, with no building downtime required.

What is a Certificate of Use inspection?

Certificate of Use inspections verify that a building meets structural, electrical, and safety requirements before occupancy. They are required for foreclosures, change of use, and occupancy compliance. All Home Meters LLC provides engineering inspections and P.E. letters for CU applications throughout Miami-Dade and Broward counties.

How long does building recertification take?

At All Home Meters LLC, the full recertification package including structural, electrical, illumination, and thermography is typically completed and submitted within a few business days of the inspection. Reports are P.E.-sealed and BORA-compliant, designed for first-pass approval. You have 90 days from receiving your recertification notice to complete the process.
