Planet Construction is built around one qualifying contractor, dedicated in-house craftsmen, and zero-broker accountability. Every project is signed, permitted, and inspected under Genti Kraja's own state licenses.
Genti Kraja, known to clients as John, is the qualifying contractor behind Planet Construction and Smart Roofing Contractor. He holds a Certified General Contractor license (CGC1517295) and a Certified Roofing Contractor license (CCC1329271) in the State of Florida, along with CVC57244 and CCC1332840 under Smart Roofing LLC.
That matters more than it sounds. A qualifying contractor is the person legally responsible for the work pulled under those license numbers, the permits filed with the city, and the inspections that follow. When you hire Planet Construction, you are not routed through a sales layer or a franchise office. You speak with John directly about your scope, your timeline, and your budget.
John built the company on a simple standard: if his name and license are on the permit, his crew does the work. That is why Planet Construction keeps roofing, concrete restoration, waterproofing, window installation, and general carpentry in-house rather than farming each trade out to a rotating list of subcontractors.
Subcontractor handoffs are where most construction complaints start. We designed our staffing model to remove that risk.
In-House Staff
Our roofers, concrete technicians, waterproofing crews, and window installers work for Planet Construction, not a third-party subcontractor hired for the week. If an issue arises, we own it and resolve it immediately without middleman disputes.
Jobsite Rigor
The exact craftsmen trained under John's direct oversight return project after project. That disciplined continuity keeps punch lists remarkably short, passes municipal building inspections on the first attempt, and guarantees long-term durability.
Synchronized Trades
We never wait on an outside subcontractor's busy calendar to move your milestone project forward. Roofing, concrete remediation, and impact glazing trades coordinate seamlessly under one unified master schedule with zero site downtime.
State Certified
Every city permit is pulled directly under John Kraja's personal state licenses. That represents an uncompromising legal and professional guarantee of structural craftsmanship—backed by $2M liability insurance and full workers' compensation.

Direct communication, thorough documentation, and in-house execution every step of the way.

We assess the property in person and put the scope, materials, and pricing in writing before anything is signed.
Our team pulls permits, schedules inspections, and manages the build with the same in-house crews from start to finish.
South Florida enforces the strictest building codes in the nation. Here is how John's field crews construct every assembly to exceed Florida Building Code (FBC) 2023 and Broward/Miami-Dade HVHZ requirements.
Engineered for 175+ MPH wind uplift resistance using mechanically fastened underlayments, secondary water barriers, and stainless steel ring-shank fasteners.
Precision diamond-saw edge cuts, complete rebar spall excavation, rust passivation, and polymer-modified structural repair mortar for lasting integrity.
Continuous heavy-gauge aluminum reinforced framing, 7/16" laminated heat-strengthened glass, and deep structural masonry buck anchoring.

Commercial properties, retail centers, and condo associations benefit from comprehensive safety containment, staging, and zero tenant disruption.
Structured milestone management from initial engineering calculations to municipal sign-off and complete lien release.
