Transform your home with safe, expert wall removal in South Florida. Whether you want to open up your living space, bring in more natural light, modernize your floor plan, or replace walls damaged by water leaks or structural issues, you need a contractor who understands more than just demolition. Proper load-bearing wall removal in South Florida requires detailed engineering, city permits, and the right structural support to protect your home while creating the open concept you’ve been dreaming of.
At Artesa – Build & Design, we specialize in structural wall removal and load-bearing wall modifications in South Florida. Every project includes a professional structural engineering review, city or county permits, and high-quality craftsmanship. Our team carefully determines the correct method of support — from steel beams to LVLs or engineered wood — so ceilings remain level, foundations stay strong, and your home is safe for years to come.
As a BBB A+ Accredited contractor, NKBA & NAHB member, and fully licensed, insured, and 100% woman-owned firm, we go beyond standard wall removal. We provide complete structural remodeling in South Florida, handling everything from demolition and beam installation to drywall, flooring, and paint. That means one contractor for your entire project, fewer delays, and a seamless process from start to finish.
When you choose Artesa – Build & Design, you’re choosing a trusted South Florida contractor with proven experience in wall removal, load-bearing wall replacement, open concept remodeling, and structural work. Our goal is to transform your home into a brighter, safer, and more functional space while giving you peace of mind knowing every step meets code, passes inspection, and is built to last.
A load-bearing wall supports the weight of the structure above it — your ceiling, another floor, or the roof. Removing it without engineering can cause sagging ceilings, cracked drywall, shifting floors, or even collapse.
That’s why our process includes:
We inspect your wall, attic, joists, and foundation. We confirm if it’s load-bearing and what structural support is needed.
Our in-house/partner engineers draft plans and specify the correct beam/column system.
We secure the permits and HOA approvals — ensuring your project is legal, documented, and insurance-safe.
We cover floors, seal dust areas, protect furniture, and keep your family safe.
Careful demolition, installation of steel or LVL beams, and rerouting of plumbing, electrical, or HVAC.
Unlike most contractors, Artesa – Build & Design, offers complete remodeling after wall removal — including drywall, painting, flooring, trim/millwork, cabinetry, and design updates.
We pass all required inspections, clean up, and provide documentation & warranty for your structural work.
