Why below-grade decides Florida multifamily
On a podium project in coastal Florida, the water table is a few feet down and frequently tidal. Excavation, dewatering, support of excavation and the transfer level consume a disproportionate share of the program and produce almost all of the surprises.
Most general contractors subcontract every bit of it. We self-perform dewatering and support of excavation, which means when the water is the problem, the people solving it work for your contract rather than for somebody else's project.
How we work with developers
Preconstruction from entitlement rather than at bid. A GMP with the contingency as a visible line and a written drawdown process. Draw packages built to what your lender actually requires. Escalation addressed explicitly rather than absorbed and priced defensively.
None of that is glamorous and all of it shows up in your return.
What we will tell you
That the pro forma does not support the drawings. That the floor plate will not yield units. That conversion is more expensive than new build here. That garden will not pencil at this land basis.
Each of those costs us a project and each is better said at entitlement than at bid.
Attribution and licensing
Romco Builders is a licensed Florida general contractor. Where project experience described across our sites was delivered by our leadership before or alongside the firm — including institutional work in New York — we say so explicitly rather than presenting it as company history.
