What may be involved
- tempered safety glass
- laminated safety glass where selected
- setting blocks
- glazing tape or gasket
- retaining stops
- sealant
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
LOCAL RESEARCH / West Little River
Local context
Miami-Dade County's permit exemption list separates small repairs from assembly replacement. It lists repair or replacement of window glass panes as exempt and states that window assembly replacement requires a permit, and it lists repair or replacement of exterior single and double door slabs as exempt while stating that a door together with its door frame requires a permit. The list carries an update date and says the exemptions are for unincorporated Miami-Dade County and are from Florida Building Code permit requirements only, noting that other departments and agencies may still require approvals. Ask the building department how your scope is classified before work starts.
