South Florida's Trusted Home Remodeling Contractor

Our Story

Built by a South Florida Contractor, for South Florida Homeowners

Haven was founded on a simple idea: the best home contractor is the one who still shows up on the job site. Aldo Dellamano started in the South Florida trades more than three decades ago, working as a tile setter and finish carpenter before earning his general contractor license. After years of watching larger contractors hand projects off to subcontractors and lose accountability in the process, Aldo built Haven around a different model — every crew is in-house, every foreman reports to him, and every project is permitted and inspected under Haven's license.

That philosophy has grown Haven into one of South Florida's most trusted home remodeling contractors. We now complete more than 1,200 projects per year across Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, and St. Lucie counties. Our 20 in-house crews cover roofing, tile, cabinetry, plumbing, electrical, and finish carpentry — which means no surprises, no finger-pointing, and no unpermitted side deals. Everything Haven does is on the record with the local building department.

Meet Aldo

Aldo Dellamano — Licensed General Contractor

Aldo holds Florida licenses across four trades: general contracting (CGC1525289), roofing (CCC1335157), plumbing (CFC1434398), and mechanical (CMC1251666). He personally reviews every estimate Haven produces and signs off on every final inspection. When a South Florida homeowner calls Haven, Aldo is the licensed contractor on the other end — not a salesperson, not a franchise operator.

Aldo is also the technical reviewer for every article, guide, and service page on this site. Content isn't outsourced to generic contractors in other states — it's written and reviewed by someone who has pulled more than 1,500 South Florida building permits in the last year alone.

What Makes Haven Different

Licensed, Local, and Locked In

Certifications & Approvals

Manufacturer & Code Credentials

Haven carries the top-tier installer credentials for every major material we use — from Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) approved roofing systems to Schluter waterproofing for bathroom remodels. These certifications are earned, not bought. They require documented project volume, passed inspections, and ongoing training:

• Florida Building Code HVHZ Certified (Miami-Dade & Broward)
• Miami-Dade NOA Approved Installer
• GAF Master Elite Roofing Contractor
• Owens Corning Platinum Preferred
• Schluter Systems Certified Waterproofing
• Energy Star Partner

The No-Subcontractors Rule

Why We Run Our Own Crews

Most South Florida contractors run a lean office and subcontract the actual work. That model is cheaper to operate but harder to control. When a subcontractor does a poor tile job or misses a waterproofing step, the original contractor has to argue with someone who's already moved on to the next job. The homeowner ends up caught in the middle.

Haven runs 20 full-time in-house crews on payroll. Our tile setters are Haven employees. Our roofers are Haven employees. Our plumbers are Haven employees. When something needs to be corrected, the same crew comes back the next morning and fixes it — no subcontractor back-and-forth, no warranty finger-pointing. It's the biggest reason our warranty callback rate is under 3% while the industry average sits closer to 12%.

Our Services

What We Do Best

Haven specializes in the licensed, code-heavy parts of home remodeling — work that demands the right permits, NOA-approved materials, and crews who can answer to a Florida inspector. We don't take on scopes that fall outside the four DBPR licenses we hold. Our six verticals:

• Residential roofing — shingle, metal, and tile systems built to HVHZ wind code
• Bathroom remodeling — walk-in showers, tub-to-shower conversions, full remodels, and accessibility upgrades
• Kitchen remodeling — full layout, cabinetry, countertops, plumbing, and electrical under one license
• Impact windows and impact doors — HVHZ-rated, insurance-discount qualifying
• Exterior coatings — TEX•COTE COOLWALL ceramic systems for stucco walls

We cover the full footprint of our service areas across South Florida.
