Drywall Repair in St. Augustine
Patches, ceiling holes, water damage, re-texturing — most jobs done in a single visit, including paint touch-up.
St Johns Handyman is a locally-owned handyman service based in Ponte Vedra Beach. We've been handling drywall repair work across St. Johns County since 2010. St. Augustine is one of our most-served towns — about 35 minutes from our HQ.
St Augustine homes range from historic downtown to newer west-side developments. Older homes often have plaster behind drywall; newer homes have the standard issues. Plaster work falls outside basic drywall — we tell you up front.
Common St Augustine drywall jobs: settled cracks in newer west-side homes, water-damage patches after Florida summer leaks, ceiling repairs from old roof issues, and texture-matching for older retextured ceilings.
What we typically do in St. Augustine
St. Augustine homes are typically older than the rest of our service area — 50 to 100+ years. The job mix reflects that: plaster patching (which we treat similarly to drywall, with the right approach), weatherproofing for original windows that won't be replaced, settled-door rehangs, and the everyday repair work that any home of any age needs. We don't take on full historic restoration — that's a specialty trade with permitting requirements — but day-to-day handyman work in St. Augustine homes is squarely in our lane.
