Surfside · Building profile
A documented exterior-window and sliding-door retrofit
The Waves at 9455 Collins Avenue has a first-hand contractor account of an exterior-opening retrofit. TISW describes installing impact-rated windows and large sliding doors in an occupied building, with phased access, water testing and closeout documentation. County records independently identify the condominium and record 1991 for the residences. This project history gives buyers specific documents to request, including the scope affecting their unit, permit closeout, test records and warranties. It does not establish the present performance of every opening.
