Home Repairs for an Older South Tampa House
Palma Ceia grew up in the 1920s around a golf course, on narrow streets, many of them still brick. A house that old keeps a to do list going, full of minor repairs and home maintenance: a door that swells in the summer, a stair rail that works loose, a towel bar out of the wall, new furniture still in the box.
That list is a third of what Palma Ceia hires us for, more than in most places we work. One handyman takes the whole thing in a single visit, with one written price that names every item. He can pressure wash the front walk or the driveway on the same trip. If an item needs a licensed plumber or electrician, he tells you before any work starts, so nothing on the list turns into a surprise.
- Doors that stick or will not latch
- Loose rails, towel bars, and shelves set back into solid wood
- Furniture and cabinets assembled
- Pictures, mirrors, and TVs hung into the studs
- Walks and driveways pressure washed
Carpentry and tile
Trim, Cabinets, and Backsplash Tile in Palma Ceia Kitchens
Carpentry is the other third of our Palma Ceia work. In an older kitchen that usually means a cabinet door rehung, a drawer rebuilt, crown molding repaired, or a new cabinet assembled and set in place. Out in the rest of the house it is baseboard, door casing, and shelves cut to fit walls that are rarely perfectly square.
A new backsplash installation is one of the quickest ways to make a kitchen feel new. Our handymen pull the old tile, repair the wall behind it, and set the new tile level and tight to the counter. Then they grout it, caulk the counter line, and clean up before they leave. We do not paint cabinets, and we will say so at the estimate.

Patching Walls and Ceilings in Palma Ceia
Old houses move a little with every season, and the walls show it. In Palma Ceia, drywall is the third most booked job: a crack over a doorway, a patch where a fixture came down, a ceiling stain left after a leak.
Once the leak is stopped, the handyman cuts out what is soft, sets new board, tapes it, and matches the texture of the wall around it. Then he paints the patch so it disappears. If the room needs a full coat of paint after, the same visit can include it.
While We Are There, What Else Can We Fix?
Most Palma Ceia lists have a few of these on them too. They go on the same written price.

Palma Ceia, Between Dale Mabry and the Selmon Expressway
Palma Ceia is a neighborhood inside the City of Tampa, in Hillsborough County, so any permit comes from the city, not the county. It runs roughly from Dale Mabry Highway and MacDill Avenue east to the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway, with Bay to Bay Boulevard along the south side. Every Palma Ceia job we have done is in 33629. Many of the streets carry Havana names, like Santiago and San Rafael.
Your Tampa handyman comes from our Tampa office on Falkenburg Road, west on the Selmon Expressway into South Tampa. The same team works Hyde Park, Bayshore Beautiful, Ballast Point, and Palma Ceia West, so a house a few blocks over is no trouble at all.

Palma Ceia Questions, Answered
Who is the best handyman in Palma Ceia, Tampa?
The Handyman Company has repaired Tampa homes since 1999, and its own employee handymen come to Palma Ceia from the office at 5314 N Falkenburg Road. It holds state certified residential and building contractor licenses CRC1336072 and CBC1258366. Tampa customers rate the office 4.4 stars across 193 Google reviews. In Palma Ceia, the mixed repair list and carpentry are the work booked most. A person answers the phone, and customers get a call back within one business day. The estimate is free, the price is in writing before work starts, and every job carries a one year warranty.
Can one handyman take my whole Palma Ceia list in a single visit?
Usually, yes. Send the list with a few photos, and each item gets its own line on one written price. The handyman brings the common parts on the truck and works through it in one trip.
Who issues permits for work on a Palma Ceia home?
The City of Tampa, because Palma Ceia is inside city limits. Most handyman work needs no permit: trim, drywall, doors, tile, and fixtures swapped in place. A remodel or structural work does, and we pull it under our own licenses.
Do I need a licensed contractor or a handyman for a Palma Ceia renovation?
For small repairs, a handyman is enough. A home improvement that needs a permit, like a bathroom remodel or structural work, needs a licensed contractor. We are both: state certified contractor licenses CRC1336072 and CBC1258366, with our own handymen doing the work. Most bathroom remodels take one to two weeks.
Can you put a new tile backsplash in a Palma Ceia kitchen?
Yes, and it is a short job. We take off the old tile, repair the wall, and set, grout, and caulk the new tile. You pick the tile, and the price is in writing before we start.
Do you pressure wash brick walks and driveways in South Tampa?
We do, and it can ride along with the repair list on the same visit. We wash walks, driveways, and porches. We do not wash roofs.
How soon can a handyman come to Palma Ceia?
We can usually schedule within a week, and a small repair is often sooner. January through April is our busiest stretch here. A person calls you back within one business day to set the time.
