Handyman services in Seminole Heights — bungalow restoration, plaster repair, and tasteful updates for Old, South, and Southeast Seminole Heights.
Seminole Heights is bungalow heaven — most of the homes were built in the 1920s and 30s, with original heart-pine floors, plaster walls, wood double-hung windows, and detailed exterior trim. The work needs a careful hand. Modern shortcuts make a 100-year-old home look wrong fast.
Bungalow-friendly repair work
- Real plaster repair (mesh + bonding plaster + topcoat, not just drywall mud)
- Wood window sash repair, glazing, and rope replacement
- Replacing rotted exterior trim with matched profiles
- Original tile bathroom touch-ups and grout repair
- Heart-pine floor patching and refinishing prep
- Period-appropriate hardware and light fixture installation
Why bungalows fail when patched wrong
Drywall mud on plaster cracks back open within a season because plaster moves differently. We bridge cracks with mesh, fill with bonding plaster, then topcoat with a flexible compound. Same idea for wood windows — modern caulk doesn't move with the wood, and the joint splits within two summers.
