Gold Hands Miami offers handyman services in Upper East Side & Miami Shores (33138), home to the MiMo District along Biscayne Boulevard and leafy streets of 1940s–1960s houses in neighborhoods like Belle Meade and Morningside. Mid-century homes here are full of original details — terrazzo floors, jalousie-era windows, plaster walls — that owners want maintained, not erased.
That is the kind of work we do well: patching and painting plaster, repairing original doors and hardware, updating light fixtures and fans, and fixing the plumbing that comes with sixty-year-old bathrooms and kitchens. We also serve the smaller apartment buildings along the corridor. Crews speak English, Spanish, and Russian, and we quote every job before starting.
Local note: Mid-century single-family homes in Belle Meade, Morningside, and Miami Shores, plus smaller apartment buildings along the MiMo corridor.
Plaster and drywall repairs finished smooth, preserving the clean mid-century look these homes are known for.
Interior and exterior painting with real prep on older plaster and stucco, in period-appropriate finishes.
Ceiling fans, outlets, and fixture wiring updated safely in houses from the 1940s–1960s.
Installing fixtures that suit MiMo-era homes, from globe pendants to exterior lanterns, mounted properly.
Original bathrooms and kitchens mean aging valves and faucets — we repair them before leaks spread.
Doors, window hardware, weatherstripping, and trim kept working in homes built sixty-plus years ago.
Yes. Much of our 33138 work is in 1940s–1960s houses, where the goal is keeping original plaster, doors, and details in good shape. We repair and match rather than tear out, unless something is truly beyond saving.
Usually within a day — the Upper East Side sits right on Biscayne Boulevard, which we drive daily. For urgent repairs like an active leak, call (786) 788-8714 and we will move the schedule around.
Yes, this is a constant request in older homes here. Houses settle and wood swells in Miami humidity, so we plane, rehang, and adjust doors and replace worn window hardware so everything closes and locks the way it should.
We do. Miami Shores' older homes have the same plaster, plumbing, and hardware needs as the Upper East Side, and the village is minutes off our regular routes, so scheduling there is just as quick.
Yes, we can diagnose common AC issues like clogged filters, refrigerant leaks, or thermostat malfunctions. While we don't do major HVAC overhauls, we can often identify and fix smaller problems to improve efficiency.
Absolutely. We regularly install new light fixtures, ceiling fans, and other electrical components. We can also help with minor wiring adjustments to accommodate your new installations safely and correctly.
Sparking outlets can indicate wiring issues or overloaded circuits, especially in older homes. It's not usually an "easy fix" for a homeowner, as it requires professional inspection to ensure safety and code compliance.
Small stucco cracks are common in our climate and usually don't require a full re-stucco. We can effectively repair and patch these cracks to prevent moisture intrusion and maintain your home's appearance.
Call or text — we answer fast and can usually be there the same day.
