What We Build in Pelican Bay

We work in Pelican Bay regularly. The most common projects are kitchen remodels, master bathroom overhauls, lanai enclosures, and full-home renovations that bring 1980s and 1990s floor plans up to current standards. Many Pelican Bay homeowners bought their homes 10–15 years ago and are now ready to invest in the home rather than sell — opening walls between kitchens and living rooms, expanding master suites, replacing aging tile roofs, and upgrading to impact-rated windows throughout.

Pelican Bay sits between the Gulf and US-41 with over 2,600 residences across single-family homes, villas, and low- and high-rise condominiums. Most of the housing stock dates to the 1980s and 1990s — Mediterranean and traditional Florida styles with stucco exteriors, barrel tile roofs, and floor plans designed for a different era. Twenty to thirty years in, these homes are hitting the point where systems need replacing and layouts need rethinking. That's where we come in.

Pelican Bay homes share some common construction characteristics: concrete block walls, concrete tile or barrel tile roofs, copper or CPVC plumbing depending on the era, and single-zone HVAC systems that struggle with Florida humidity. We know these systems because we've worked on hundreds of homes built in the same period across Naples. That means faster diagnostics, fewer surprises behind walls, and realistic timelines from day one. If you're considering a home additions page project or a full renovation, we can walk your property and tell you what to expect before committing.

Services Most Requested in Pelican Bay

Kitchen Remodeling

Most Pelican Bay kitchens were designed as closed galley or U-shaped layouts. Today's remodels typically remove the wall between kitchen and living room to create an open-concept space, add an island with seating, and upgrade to Sub-Zero, Wolf, or Thermador appliances. We handle the structural engineering for load-bearing wall removal, reroute electrical and plumbing, and install custom cabinetry — all under one contract. See our full kitchen remodeling page for scope and pricing guidance.

Master Suite & Bathroom Additions

Original master bathrooms in Pelican Bay homes are often undersized by today's standards — small showers, limited vanity space, no dedicated linen storage. We expand master suites by converting adjacent bedrooms or building additions where lot setbacks allow. Walk-in showers with frameless glass, heated floors, freestanding soaking tubs, and dual-vanity layouts are standard in our Pelican Bay bathroom work. For more on what second-story additions involve, see our second-story addition cost guide.

Mediterranean Tile Roof Replacement

Pelican Bay's barrel tile and flat tile roofs have a 25–30 year lifespan. Many are now due for replacement. The community's aesthetic standards require matching tile profiles and colors, and some sub-associations specify approved manufacturers. We source exact or blended matches, install with Miami-Dade-rated underlayment and fastening, and handle the permit and HOA coordination. Roofing license CCC1336198.

Impact Windows & Hurricane Protection

Many Pelican Bay homes still have original single-pane or early double-pane windows with accordion shutters. Upgrading to impact-rated glass eliminates the hassle of shuttering before storms, reduces insurance premiums (often 15–25% savings), and improves energy efficiency. We install PGT WinGuard, CGI Sentinel, and similar rated products and coordinate with your insurance company for wind mitigation credit documentation.

New Construction & Full-Home Renovation

Some Pelican Bay homeowners opt for a complete gut renovation rather than piecemeal updates — stripping the home to studs and rebuilding with a modern floor plan, new mechanical systems, and contemporary finishes. Others on larger lots are exploring teardown-and-rebuild. We handle both under our new construction license. A full renovation of a 2,500–3,500 sq ft Pelican Bay home typically runs 6–10 months.

Building in Pelican Bay: What You Need to Know

Architectural Review Boards. Pelican Bay has a master community association plus individual sub-association ARBs for each neighborhood within the community. Every exterior modification — from paint colors to roof materials to lanai enclosures — requires ARB approval before Collier County will issue a building permit. We've been through this process dozens of times and submit complete packages (architectural drawings, material samples, color selections, landscaping plans) that get approved on first review when possible.

Setbacks and lot coverage. Pelican Bay lots vary significantly — single-family homes on generous lots in Barrington, Bay Colony, and Crescent may have room for additions, while cluster homes and villas in communities like Lugano, St. Raphael, or Breakwater have tighter footprints. We pull the specific zoning and setback requirements for your parcel before committing to any addition design.

Seasonal scheduling. Pelican Bay's seasonal population means most homeowners want construction completed before November or during April–October when they're away. We build project schedules around these windows and have the crew depth to maintain timelines even during peak construction season. Interior work — kitchens, bathrooms, HVAC — can proceed year-round with minimal disruption even if you're in residence.

Aging infrastructure. Homes built in the 1980s and early 1990s often have polybutylene or early CPVC plumbing that's reaching end-of-life. If we open walls for a remodel and find degraded plumbing, we recommend repiping the affected areas while walls are open rather than patching and paying to reopen later. Same logic applies to electrical panels, HVAC ductwork, and insulation — if it's accessible during your remodel, address it now. We hold all four relevant licenses (general contractor CGC1536790, plumbing CFC1433356, HVAC CAC1823726, roofing CCC1336198) so nothing gets subcontracted out or delayed waiting for a separate trade.

Pelican Bay Construction FAQs

Do HOAs in Pelican Bay allow second-story additions?

It depends on your sub-association. Some Pelican Bay communities allow second-story additions with Architectural Review Board approval, while others have strict single-story deed restrictions. We research your specific community's covenants before proposing any design. Plan for a 4–8 week ARB approval process on top of Collier County permitting.

What does a typical kitchen remodel cost in Pelican Bay?

Most Pelican Bay kitchen remodels we complete range from $75,000 to $180,000 depending on scope. The higher end includes structural wall removal, custom cabinetry, quartzite or marble countertops, and Sub-Zero/Wolf appliance packages. A cosmetic refresh with new countertops, backsplash, and painted cabinets runs $35,000–$60,000.

How long does the Pelican Bay Architectural Review Board process take?

Typically 4–8 weeks from submission to approval. We prepare complete ARB packages including elevations, material samples, color boards, and landscaping plans. Submitting a thorough package the first time avoids resubmission delays. We handle the entire process so you're not chasing paperwork.
