ABOUT OUR COMPANY

Licensed, Insured, and Ready to Build.

General contracting coordinates every phase of construction—permitting, structural work, mechanical systems, finishes, and inspections—so that timelines stay predictable and trades work in proper sequence. In West Palm Beach, contractors navigate coastal wind load requirements for additions, setback restrictions that affect footprint expansions, and commercial zoning compliance that varies by district. The work addresses property limitations by adding square footage, converting underused structures, or building separate accessory buildings that expand functionality without relocating.

Request a project consultation to review your property layout and discuss structural feasibility for the addition or conversion you're considering.

What Proper General Contracting Requires.

Residential general contracting involves structural engineering for load-bearing modifications, trade coordination across electrical, plumbing, and HVAC installations, and permit acquisition that matches local code requirements for wind resistance and flood zone classifications. You work with a single point of contact who schedules inspections, manages subcontractor sequencing, and ensures that framing, roofing, and finish work proceed without delays caused by missing materials or incomplete rough-ins.


S.C. WELLS CONSTRUCTION, LLC completes projects so that new construction ties seamlessly into existing structures—matching roof pitches, aligning floor elevations, and maintaining exterior finishes that don't visually separate old from new. After a second-story addition, your home supports the additional load without sagging floors or cracking drywall, and after a garage conversion, you gain climate-controlled living space with properly sized HVAC service and code-compliant egress windows. Commercial builds result in spaces that meet ADA requirements, pass fire marshal inspections, and accommodate the electrical and data infrastructure your business operations require.



General contracting also includes project documentation—signed lien releases from subcontractors, final inspection certificates, and as-built drawings that reflect any field changes made during construction. These records matter for future refinancing, property sales, or additional modifications, and they confirm that all work was completed with proper permits rather than as unpermitted alterations that complicate resale or insurance claims.

OUR PROJECTS

  • What happens during the initial project consultation?

    You walk the property with the contractor to discuss your goals, review structural limitations, and identify permit requirements specific to your lot's zoning and flood zone designation, which determines foundation and elevation standards for any addition or new construction.

  • How long does a second-story addition typically take?

    Most second-story additions require four to six months from permit approval to final inspection, depending on whether the existing foundation needs reinforcement and whether the project includes new plumbing risers or HVAC ductwork that ties into your current systems.

  • What's included in a garage conversion to living space?

    Conversion work includes removing the garage door and framing a new wall, adding insulation and drywall to meet energy code, installing climate control, running electrical circuits for outlets and lighting, and adding egress windows that meet bedroom code if the space will be used for sleeping.

  • Why do commercial builds require more documentation than residential projects?

    Commercial construction involves fire-rated assemblies, ADA-compliant restrooms and entrances, certificate of occupancy inspections that verify life safety systems, and often tenant improvement agreements that define what the owner provides versus what the tenant installs for their specific business use.

  • When should I schedule a pool house build?

    Pool house construction works best during dry season months in West Palm Beach, typically November through April, when weather delays are less frequent and concrete pours, roofing, and exterior finishes proceed without interruptions from afternoon storms that stall work and extend timelines.
