What usually lands on a Miami punch list
- Doors that stick after humidity swings — see door repair & humidity
- Missing towel bars, closet rods, curtain rods, shelf installs
- TV mount leftover from the previous tenant
- Caulk at tubs / windows, weatherstripping, lock adjustments
- Small drywall / hole patches before paint touch-up
- Light fixture or faucet swaps on existing hookups
- IKEA / flat-pack leftovers from staging — IKEA assembly Miami
How to send a list we can price in one reply
That format lets us recommend $389 vs $715 without an on-site visit for most condo lists. Houses with attic / exterior items may still need a quick look.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a punch-list handyman in Miami?
A punch list is the leftover repair and install list after a closing, renovation, or rental turnover — sticking doors, missing handles, paint touch spots, hanging, small drywall, and fixture swaps. We work the list as a package instead of booking each item as a separate trip.
How much does a punch-list visit cost?
Most lists fit half-day $389 (4 hours) or full-day $715 (8 hours). Small single tasks start at $99. Hourly is $100/hr with a 2-hour minimum when the list is short but unclear.
Can you finish a realtor punch list before a showing?
Often same-day or next-day if you send photos early — see our same-day handyman guide. Buildings that need 24–48 hour COI or freight reservations can block “today” even when our truck is free.
Do you handle HOA / condo access for investor units?
Yes. Send the vendor registration steps, gate codes, and preferred weekday windows. We work investor turnovers from Sunny Isles through Coral Gables regularly.
What belongs on a punch list vs a licensed trade?
Handyman punch: doors, hardware, hanging, small drywall, fixture swaps on existing wiring, caulk, weatherstrip. Licensed first: active leaks flooding a unit, panel upgrades, gas work, structural cracks. We flag scope that must wait for a specialist.
