Home Improvement Built for Davie’s Equestrian Lots and 1980s Homes
Davie’s median home value of $462,900–$525,000 makes remodeling a smart way to protect equity, especially in neighborhoods like Arrowhead and Rolling Hills where owners expect updated kitchens, durable finishes, and storm-ready exteriors. Many homes were built around 1988, and we regularly see original stucco cracking, aging roof underlayment, dated tile layouts, and inefficient HVAC ductwork in those properties. Home improvement here is less about cosmetic changes and more about preserving structure, improving energy performance, and keeping insurance happy.
Shenandoah and Oak Hill Village bring a different challenge: larger lots, equestrian zoning, and more distance between buildings. That means planning for setbacks, drainage, and outdoor improvements that hold up to South Florida rain cycles. On the west side near the Everglades, the high water table makes flooring, baseboards, and cabinetry choices more critical than in tighter suburban tracts.
Primer Star Corp has completed home improvement projects across Davie for years, from ranch-style updates near Nova Southeastern University to exterior repairs in Royal Palm Trail. Our team is licensed and insured, and we pull permits through the Davie Building Division when the scope requires it, so homeowners get code-compliant work that stands up to humidity, salt air, and hurricane seasons.

Home Improvement Services in Davie — What You Need to Know
Davie’s Building Division at 6591 Orange Dr runs permitting through OAS online, and most residential permits cost between $200 and $1,500 depending on scope. We coordinate drawings, pull the permit, and schedule inspections so homeowners don’t get stuck in the back-and-forth. This matters in a town with equestrian zoning and a mix of older ranch homes and newer subdivisions, where scope often crosses multiple trade lines.
FEMA updated flood maps in July 2024, and SFHA areas in the C-11 Basin West of C-Dike now require closer review. If a project triggers the 50% substantial improvement rule, we plan the work to meet elevation and flood-resistant construction standards. West Davie also deals with a high water table, so we recommend moisture-resistant drywall, PVC trim, and sealed slab transitions instead of standard MDF that swells.
HOAs are common in areas like Rolling Hills and parts of Arrowhead, so exterior colors, roofing profiles, and fence styles often need approval before permits. We handle the submittal package and keep the schedule tight. In equestrian neighborhoods such as Shenandoah, access for equipment and stable operations shapes staging and layout. We also check septic versus municipal connections in older pockets before remodeling bathrooms or kitchens to avoid surprises.
