Historic properties have unique charm, craftsmanship and a special process to renovate them.

You will learn from Southern Bros. Inspections about the "Top 5 Defects Found in Historic Homes." From foundations to roofs and decades of system renovations, historic properties can be hard to understand. Mark Riccaboni of Southern Brothers Inspections will identify and discuss the five most common issues found during inspections of historic district properties and what to do about them.

Both residential and commercial renovations within Historic Districts of Jacksonville require a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) from the City of Jacksonville. During our Historic Preservation Workshop, learn about that process, what requires a COA and what does not, and how to be most efficient with your time when it comes to renovating a historic property. If you're planning to purchase or renovate your historic home, you don't want to miss this workshop!

All workshops are free. Attendance is capped at 20, please register below.
