OCOEE · ORANGE COUNTY, FLORIDA

General handyman services for Ocoee homes

Drywall patches, door and window repair, deck and fence fixes, TV mounting, gutter cleaning, and the honey-do list that keeps getting pushed to next weekend. We work on homes across Ocoee, from the Bluford Avenue historic core to the newer subdivisions off Clarcona-Ocoee Road.

What we handle

Drywall repair

Nail pops, hairline cracks, door-knob holes, and water-stain patches. We match texture, not just fill the hole.

Door and window repair

Sticking doors, loose hinges, failed weatherstripping, windows that won't latch or slide. Hardware swaps, not licensed glazing or structural framing work.

Deck and fence repair

Soft or split boards, loose rails, leaning posts, gate hardware. Replacement-scope work that crosses into a full rebuild gets a permit check first - see our licensing guide.

Minor fixture and hardware fixes

Cabinet hardware, towel bars, closet rods, loose railings, furniture assembly, and small hardware swaps. Not electrical or plumbing work - see below.

TV mounting

Stud-mounted or drywall-anchor mounted, cables run and hidden, level the first time.

Gutter cleaning

Debris cleared, downspouts checked, minor hanger and seam fixes while we're up there.

Caulking and weatherproofing

Re-caulking tubs, showers, exterior trim, and window frames before Florida's wet season turns a gap into a stain.

Punch-list and honey-do work

The list that's been sitting on the fridge for six months. One visit, the whole list, one invoice.

Ocoee’s housing stock, in one table

Ocoee grew fast - the city more than doubled in population between 2000 and 2020 - which shows up directly in the county appraiser’s parcel data. Half the city’s homes were built in 2000 or later, so most of our calls in Ocoee are punch-list, fixture, and newer-build snagging work rather than decades-of-neglect repair - though the older quarter of the city, concentrated around the historic downtown core, still needs the classic age-related fixes.

Common questions

How much does it cost to hire a handyman?

Rates in the Ocoee area commonly run $30-$80 an hour depending on whether you're hiring an independent handyman or a company, with many jobs quoted flat and a typical $50-$100 minimum for a small job. These are researched market ranges, not a quote -

How much does drywall repair cost?

A small hole (2 in. or so) professionally patched typically runs $60-$180 including texture matching, versus $10-$30 in DIY materials if you do it yourself. Bigger cracks or multiple spots cost more - texture matching is usually the part that's hard to DIY well.

Do I need a permit to replace a fence in Florida?

Usually yes for installation or full replacement - Ocoee's Building Division requires a fence permit (site plan and structural details, flat $50 fee as of September 2026) for new or replacement fence work. Whether a small repair (a few boards or a gate hinge) needs its own permit is something we check per job rather than assume - see our licensing guide for the honest version of this answer.

Can a handyman install a ceiling fan in Florida?

No. Swapping or wiring a ceiling fan is electrical work under Florida law, and it needs a licensed electrician regardless of how small the job looks. We do not perform this work - see our licensing guide for what handyman scope does and doesn't cover.
