St Johns Handyman runs a quarterly home-maintenance service across Ponte Vedra Beach, Ponte Vedra, and Nocatee. One scheduled visit every 3 months covers caulking, weatherproofing, gutter cleaning, smoke and CO detector battery checks, exterior light bulb replacement, and a walk-around inspection that catches small problems before they become big ones. Most plans run $250–$500 per visit depending on house size. We do not charge a call-out fee. Call (904) 871-5791.

What we do

Common home maintenance jobs we take

Caulk & weatherproofing

Re-caulk windows, doors, tubs, baseboards. Stops drafts, water, and bugs. The single highest-ROI maintenance task.

Gutter cleaning

Clean leaves and debris, flush downspouts. Critical before hurricane season. Two-story add cost.

Smoke & CO detectors

Test every detector, swap any battery older than 6 months, replace units older than 10 years.

Exterior light bulbs

Swap every exterior light bulb that's out. Bulbs we supply at cost, or you can have them on-site.

AC filter swap

Replace AC filters. Use a quality MERV 8–11 — anything higher restricts airflow on most home systems.

Walk-around inspection

Roof from the ground, siding, exterior trim, paint, irrigation heads, door seals. We photograph and report.

What it costs

Honest ranges, no call-out fee.

Every job is different, but here's what most jobs in this category run. We give a firm estimate before we start, and you owe us nothing if you don't hire us.

How it works

Three steps, no surprises.

  1. 1

    Call or text

    Tell us what's wrong in a sentence — phone or a quick text with a photo.

  2. 2

    On-site estimate

    We come out, look at the job, and quote you a firm price. No call-out fee.

  3. 3

    Done

    Most jobs in this category are completed in a single visit. We clean up before we leave.

Why maintenance saves money

In Florida, the difference between $300 of preventive caulk and $3,000 of water-damage drywall is a few months of neglected window seals. Most large repair bills we see started as a $50 maintenance task that got skipped. Quarterly visits aren’t about creating busywork; they’re about catching the leak before the wall is open.

The checklist we run

Every visit follows the same checklist so nothing falls through. After your visit you get a PDF with photos of anything we noticed, anything we fixed in-visit, and anything we’d recommend scheduling. That report is yours to keep for insurance, resale, or peace of mind.

What's in a quote

Honest line items. No mystery fees.

Here's exactly how we put a quote together for a typical small repair. Tap any row to see what each line covers.

  • Labor $180 3 hrs × $60/hr

    We charge a per-job rate when we can. When the scope is open-ended, we charge $60/hour per technician. We always tell you which it is before we start so you can decide.

  • Materials $42 drywall, primer, fasteners

    We pass through our cost on materials at no markup. Receipts on request. Anything we already have on the truck — patch kits, common fasteners — is included in labor at no extra charge.

  • Dump / disposal $25 haul-away of debris

    If the job creates more than a kitchen trash bag of waste, we add a small disposal fee. Smaller jobs are included in labor. For very large jobs (full room demos), a dumpster rental gets quoted separately.

  • Workmanship coverage $10 12-month workmanship coverage

    A small per-job amount that funds our 12-month workmanship coverage. If a covered workmanship issue comes up within 12 months of completion, we'll come back and make it right at no extra labor charge — see our Terms of Service for what's covered and what isn't.

  • Cleanup included drop cloths, vacuum, wipe

    Drop cloths, dust containment, vacuum, wipe — always included in labor, never a separate line. We leave the room cleaner than we found it.

  • Trip / service fee $0 no call-out or trip fee

    We do not charge a call-out fee or trip fee. The drive is on us. For very far jobs outside our standard service area (Hastings, parts of southwest St. Johns County) we may quote a small travel addition — we tell you about it upfront, never in the invoice.

Frequently asked

Home maintenance — questions we get a lot

What does the quarterly visit include?

Caulk and weatherproofing pass, gutter cleaning, smoke/CO detector check and battery swap, AC filter replacement, exterior light bulb replacement, and a photographic walk-around inspection. We send you the photos and a punch list after the visit.

How much does it cost?

Most homes run $250–$500 per quarterly visit depending on size and scope. Two-story homes and homes with extensive landscaping are at the upper end.

Can I just do one visit, or is it a contract?

One-time visits are welcome at the same price. Most homeowners convert to quarterly once they see the value — but there's no contract. You can stop any time.

What about hurricane prep?

Pre-hurricane prep (board-up, securing outdoor items, gutter clear) is quoted separately and scheduled when there's an active advisory. Standard maintenance keeps the home ready year-round.

Do you handle repairs found during the inspection?

Anything small (less than 30 minutes), we'll fix during the visit at no extra labor charge — just parts. Anything bigger, we quote and schedule separately.

Can I add specific items to the checklist?

Yes. Tell us what matters to you and we'll include it. Common adds: irrigation walk-through, garage door tune-up, water heater inspection.
