Kitchens, bathrooms and home additions, built by a licensed Florida general contractor. Free on-site estimates and financing available. Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach.
Remodeling since 2010
What we do
One contractor from the permit to the final inspection
Duranco Inc has been building in South Florida since 2010. We take on three kinds of job: kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, and additions or conversions that add square footage to a house. We do not do roofing, pools or commercial work.
Estimates are free and we do them on site. We measure the room, go through what you want in it, and send back an itemized price with a start date. Nothing is quoted over the phone, because a number given over the phone is a guess and it turns into a change order later.
You deal with one contractor from the first measurement through the final inspection. Permits are pulled under our own license and we meet the county inspectors ourselves. Every job carries a written workmanship warranty. Office hours are Mon–Fri: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM.
Building with purpose
Crafting spaces with care always
Duranco Inc is a licensed Florida general contractor. License CGC1519363, held by Joaquin Duran. The company was incorporated in Florida in 2010. We work in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties.

Building with purpose
How we work, in three steps

2
Contract and schedule
Scope, price and dates are signed off before any demolition starts, permits included -
3
Build and hand over
Our crew builds, keeps the site clean, and walks the finished work with you at the end
Permits and inspections
Permits, inspections and what is behind the wall
Most of what determines how a remodel holds up is finished and covered before you ever see the room. Plumbing and electrical are re-run to the new layout, the county inspects the rough-in, and only then do the walls close. Contractors working without a permit skip that inspection, which is the real problem with unpermitted work rather than the paperwork itself. It also tends to surface later, when the house is being sold.
In bathrooms the waterproofing matters more than anything else in the room. The pan is built to slope, the membrane runs up the walls as one system, and we fill it with water and leave it before any tile goes down. A shower that was waterproofed badly looks exactly like one that was done right on the day you get the keys.
Floors get leveled and cabinet runs get set to a level line rather than to the floor. In older South Florida houses the floor is usually off by enough to matter.
We carry general liability and workers’ compensation insurance.
Building trust through our work
We deliver quality construction
What I remember most about working on the design was how well the designer listened to me. I really didn’t have to explain every little detail. She understood what I was looking for and the final result was exactly what I had in mind.
The timeline worked great for me too. If anything took a little longer, it was probably because of me. Overall, I had a really good experience and felt like my ideas were actually heard.

The thing I liked most was how involved the designer was throughout the whole process. She was really great to work with. She answered all my questions quickly and understood what I was trying to explain, even when I wasn’t sure how to describe it.
She was also very quick with changes and details in the design. Everything came together pretty much the way I had pictured it. I’m very happy with how it turned out.

We had quite a few complicated things going on with the project, especially moving walls and dealing with plumbing and electrical. There were definitely some challenging moments, but the team handled everything really well.
They stayed on top of the issues and found solutions along the way. I’m very happy with the final result and would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I met with a few different kitchen consultants before deciding who to work with. Matt from Duranco was always available and really stood out from the beginning. He and team planned the kitchen very clearly, stayed within our budget, came out to take all the measurements, and went over all the details with us.
We had a few questions during the process, but Matt was always there to answer them, even on weekends. The kitchen took about a month to make, and everything was delivered and installed on time.
We did have one small issue because a drawer handle was missing. Customer service couldn’t resolve it right away, but once Matt found out about it, he took care of it quickly.
Really appreciate his communication and how involved he was throughout the project. We’re very happy with our kitchen!

We ordered our kitchen after some friends recommended Duranco to us. We’re really happy with how it turned out. The quality is great and the price was very good compared to some of the other options we looked at.
Matt was our project manager and he was great to work with. He listened to everything we wanted and made sure all the details were included. The kitchen was finished on time, and we were happy with the delivery, assembly and installation as well.
Overall, a great experience. I would definitely recommend them.

Everything went smoothly from the initial measurements to the installation. The team was professional and did a really good job.
I liked that they paid attention to the details and didn’t rush through anything. The finished kitchen actually turned out better than I expected.
Very happy with the result and would definitely recommend them.

Before you call
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers on timelines, money and permits. If your question is not here, call us and ask.
How long does it take?
A kitchen is four to six weeks on site once the permit is in hand. Bathrooms are shorter. Additions run considerably longer and most of the extra time is permitting, not construction. You get a date range in writing with the estimate and we tell you the day it changes.
What does it cost?
That depends on the room and what goes in it, so we measure before quoting. The estimate itemizes labor, materials and permits separately. The contract price is what you pay, and anything that changes mid-job comes as a written change order before the work happens.
Do you pull permits?
Yes, under license CGC1519363. We also meet the inspectors at rough-in and at final.
Do you work in condos?
Yes. Association approval, building access and elevator scheduling all affect the timeline, so tell us it is a condo when you first call and we will build it into the schedule.
Can I use my own designer or my own cabinets?
Both are fine. We build from your designer’s drawings, or lay the room out ourselves if you would rather. If you have already bought cabinets or stone we install them and price the work as labor only.
