The St. Johns standout
Door Repair and Replacement in St. Johns
Doors are the second most booked job in St. Johns, and few towns we work in call about doors as often. Newer houses settle in their first years. A frame shifts a little, and a door that closed fine at the walkthrough starts to rub, drift open, or miss the strike plate.
Most of these are a short visit for a St. Johns handyman who knows the problem. The handyman looks the door over first, from the hinges to the sill, then sets longer screws into the framing, shims the hinge side, and moves the strike so the latch catches clean. A front door that lets daylight in at the corner gets new weatherstripping, a threshold adjusted, and fresh caulk at the casing, so the air conditioning stays inside.
When a door is past saving, we hang a new slab in the old frame or set a new pre-hung unit, then match the casing so it looks like it was always there. For an exterior door that keeps rotting at the bottom, a fiberglass door is worth asking about, because it does not rot. A patio slider we do not repair, but we can turn that opening into French doors.

Do You Have a Trim Carpenter for St. Johns Homes?
We do, and carpentry is still the biggest share of our St. Johns work. Most of it is finish work. Baseboard that opened a gap at the corner. Casing that split when the builder nailed it too close to the edge. Shoe molding that never went back after new floors.
Our carpenters are our own employees, not subcontractors, and they carry the saw and the trim stock on the truck. They cope the corners, fill and caulk the joints, and paint the new pieces to match for a professional finish. Quality workmanship shows up close, at the corners, and that is where our carpenters take their time with the detail.
Bigger home improvement projects fit the same visit: a built-in shelf, a closet rebuilt to hold more, overhead storage racks in a cluttered garage, or a mantel for the living room.
- Baseboard and shoe molding reset after new flooring
- Split or loose door casing replaced
- Crown molding added to a plain living room
- Closet shelving rebuilt to fit the space
- Overhead storage built in the garage

Fascia Boards and Wood Rot Around the Eaves
Near the river and the creeks, damp air sits in the eaves, and fascia is where a St. Johns house shows it first. Closer to Ponte Vedra Beach, salt air adds to it. A soft fascia board usually starts as peeling paint or a gutter that pulls away.
The handyman cuts out the rotten run, replaces it with new board, and closes the soffit behind it so nothing can nest there. Then it gets primed and painted. If a roof leak caused the rot, the roofer fixes the roof first, and we repair the wood it damaged after that. The soffit and fascia work and the wood rot repair usually go on one written price.
The same goes for a rotted door jamb at the garage, a soft window sill, or a crack in the stucco where water got behind it. Caught early with a little maintenance, each is a small repair that costs far less than the rebuild it would become.
While We Are There, What Else Can We Fix?
Most St. Johns lists have a few of these on them too. They go on the same written price.

Serving St. Johns, From Julington Creek to County Road 210

Your St. Johns handyman team comes down Philips Highway from our Jacksonville office, crosses into St. Johns County at Race Track Road, and is in the neighborhoods in a short drive.

St. Johns Questions, Answered
Who is the best handyman in St. Johns, FL?
The Handyman Company started in Tampa in 1999 and sends its own employee craftsmen to St. Johns from its office at 6900 Philips Highway in Jacksonville. It holds Florida certified contractor licenses CRC1336072 and CBC1258366. Jacksonville customers rate the office 4.6 stars across 238 Google reviews. Doors are about one St. Johns job in five, so the handyman knows how settling frames throw them off. The estimate is free, the price is in writing before work starts, and every job carries a one year warranty.
Who does home repair in St. Johns, FL?
We do, and we would be glad to see your list. Our local team takes the doors, trim, drywall, fascia, and fixtures around your property on one visit, so your household repairs are not spread across four contractors. Anything that needs a permit in St. Johns County, we can pull under our contractor licenses, so the work stays with one company. Big electrical and plumbing projects go to a licensed specialist, and we say so at the estimate.
How do I find a good St. Johns handyman?
Ask a few things before you hire anyone. Is the person who shows up an employee or a subcontractor? Is the company licensed and insured for the job? Will the price be in writing before work starts, and does it spell out the work? Can they show you photos of similar jobs? Who answers the phone if something goes wrong later? Our answers: our own employees, state contractor licenses CRC1336072 and CBC1258366 with insurance, a written price the bill never goes over, photos from real jobs, and a person at the Jacksonville office who calls back within one business day.
Does my St. Johns HOA need a licensed handyman for exterior work?
It can. Florida has no handyman license, so anyone can take a small repair. If your HOA asks for proof of a license and insurance before exterior work, our state contractor licenses and insurance certificate cover it. We send that paperwork with the written price.
Do I need a permit for handyman work in St. Johns?
Most repairs do not need one: doors, trim, drywall patches, fixtures on an existing box, and screens. A remodel, structural work, or new plumbing or wiring behind the wall does. St. Johns is unincorporated, so those permits come from St. Johns County, and we pull them under our own licenses.
Does the St. Johns team also work in Nocatee and Ponte Vedra Beach?
Yes. The same team covers Mandarin, Nocatee, and Ponte Vedra Beach, with the same handyman service, the same written price, and the same one year warranty. We can usually schedule within a week, and summer is our busiest stretch, so a spring call gets the earliest date. You can expect a person to call you back within one business day to set the time.
Can you replace a fascia board in Saint Johns, FL?
Yes. The handyman cuts out the rotten section, fits new board, closes the soffit behind it, and paints it to match. If a roof leak caused the rot, the roofer fixes that first, and we repair the damaged wood after.
Do you install tile in St. Johns bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Our handyman services in St. Johns include tile installation: a new backsplash, cracked floor tile replaced, and a shower regrouted so it looks new again. Tile holds up well to Florida humidity, so it is worth fixing right rather than covering over. For a whole floor, tile is what we lay most, then laminate and wood.
