“Mobile home subflooring replacement, it was a big job. Jimmy's professionalism and talent were the best! The quality of work is A+++. The company is very responsive and thorough. I will be using them again! Thanks for everything.”
“Very timely, reasonable price and great craftmanship. We have used them in the office on several projects from painting to small door and floor repairs. Everything was completed well! The most impressive thing is that they show up on the day and time that they tell you! Will use them again!”
“The Handyman Company did a great job from beginning to end on the backsplash in my kitchen. Their communication was excellent, they showed up when they said they would and their workmanship was incredible. I had talked to a few companies prior and it was like pulling teeth trying to get those guys to follow up. The Handyman Company is run like a company is supposed to be run. I have already booked them for another job on my house and would recommend them to anyone looking for any type of work on their house.”

What We Handle
Luxury Vinyl Plank
Florida's go-to floor. Water resistant, tough under pets and sand, and installed with tight seams and straight lines that keep it looking that way.
Tile Flooring
Porcelain and ceramic set flat and level, with grout lines that run true. Still the right call for baths, laundries, and other wet rooms.
Laminate
A warm look underfoot where conditions suit it. We will tell you plainly where laminate works in a Florida house and where LVP or tile serves better.
Subfloor Repair & Leveling
New floor over a bad base is money wasted. We repair soft spots, flatten humps and dips, and put the fix in writing before covering anything.
Transitions & Trim
Doorway transitions, stair nosings, and baseboard or quarter round, fitted clean. Transitions are where rushed jobs give themselves away.
Room-by-Room or Whole-Home
One bedroom, the main living areas, or every floor in the house, sequenced so you can keep living there while we work.
Flat Floors Start Under the Floor
A floor is the biggest surface in the house, and it is unforgiving. A wavy wall can hide behind furniture; a wavy floor announces itself with every step. Good flooring work is mostly preparation: a flat, sound base, straight starting lines, tight seams, and transitions that do not catch a bare foot in the dark.
The Handyman Company installs luxury vinyl plank, tile, and laminate across Florida, and our crews are our own employees. Luxury vinyl plank has become the Florida favorite for good reason: it shrugs off water, pets, and tracked-in sand. Tile still rules the wet areas, and laminate has its place where conditions suit it. We will talk you through which floor fits which room, and here is our subfloor policy in one sentence: we fix what we find before we cover it, priced in writing before we proceed.

The Decisions That Shape a Floor
Material is only the first choice. These are the ones installers make quietly, and the ones worth making out loud.
Which way the planks run
Plank direction changes how big a room feels. Running with the longest sight line and the main light usually wins, but hallways and connected rooms complicate it, so we lay it out with you before the first row goes down.
What goes between floor and slab
On concrete, the underlayment does the quiet work: sound, feel underfoot, and a moisture barrier against vapor rising through the slab. It is the least visible line in the quote and one of the most important.
Grout color, chosen for real life
Bright white grout photographs well and shows every grain of tracked-in sand by Friday. Mid-tone grout lives gracefully in a Florida house. We will show you both against your tile.
Baseboards: pull and reset, or quarter round
Pulling baseboards and resetting them over the new floor looks cleanest. Quarter round against the existing base costs less. Both are legitimate; we just want you choosing, not discovering.
Built for Florida
Why hard-surface floors rule Florida
Florida homes mostly sit on concrete slabs, and the state throws water at your floors from every direction: wet swimsuits, rainy season, dripping AC lines, dogs in and out of the yard. Add the sand that rides in on every pair of shoes, grinding at finishes like sandpaper, and carpet never stood much of a chance. Hard surfaces rule here because the climate votes for them every single day.
The slab itself is part of the job. Slabs are rarely as flat as they look, and moisture moves up through concrete, so prep, leveling, and the right underlayment matter more here than in a state full of wood-framed floors. We look at what your slab actually needs before we quote, and the written price covers it.
What Moves a Flooring Estimate
The material itself
Tile is the most labor of the three by a distance: mortar, cuts, grout, and cure time. Plank floors install faster, which is part of why LVP took over Florida living areas.
What the slab needs first
Humps, dips, and soft patches have to be corrected before anything goes down, because the new floor telegraphs every flaw beneath it. We check the base at the estimate so the prep is in the number, not discovered after.
Getting the old floor out
Pulling carpet is quick. Demoing glued-down tile off a slab is genuinely hard labor, and it prices like it. What you have now matters as much as what you want next.
The shape of the space
Open areas run fast. Hallways, closets, and doorway transitions are all cutting and fitting, so a house of small rooms takes more time than the same footage in open plan.

Flooring Installation: LVP, Laminate & Tile: Common Questions
Which flooring is best for a Florida home?
For most living areas, luxury vinyl plank: it handles water, pets, and sand better than anything else at its finish level. Tile is the right call for baths and laundries, and laminate fits certain rooms. At the free estimate we will walk the house and match the floor to how each room actually gets used.
Can you install the new floor over my existing one?
Sometimes, but usually the old floor comes out. What the new floor needs is a flat, sound, clean base, and whether your existing floor can be that base depends on what it is and what shape it is in. The written scope will say exactly which way your job goes and why.
What happens if my subfloor turns out to be damaged?
We show you what we found, explain the fix, and price it in writing before we proceed. What we will not do is bury a soft spot or a hump under brand-new flooring and let it become your problem later.
How much does flooring installation cost?
Material, square footage, and what the slab needs drive it. We measure, check the base, and put one number in writing that covers prep, install, and trim. If the slab fights us harder than expected, that is our problem, not a change order.
Do you supply the flooring, or can I buy my own?
Either works. We can quote the job with materials included, or install flooring you have already purchased. Tell us which at the estimate and we will build the written price accordingly.
Do you handle the baseboards and transitions too?
Yes, and we consider the floor unfinished without them. Transitions, nosings, and baseboard or quarter round are part of the scope, fitted and finished before we call the job done.
