Hollywood Lakes and downtown have doors from the 1920s to the 1950s in frames the termites have found; near the beach the salt corrodes rollers, hinges and locks; the block neighborhoods west of Dixie Highway still have jalousie and builder doors; Emerald Hills has heavy impact doors. We save the originals, rebuild the frames, fit stainless hardware, rehang the heavy doors and install the impact door you chose, checked against the hurricane-zone approval first.

THE LISTALL DONEEach of these is a short visit for a Kaminskiy-certified technician who works Hollywood from our Miami office. One list, one call.
Priced and on the calendar during the first call.
A written quote you approve before anyone drives out.
One crew, truck stocked, warranty in writing.
A one-year workmanship warranty, in writing, on every Hollywood job.
The 1920s and 1930s houses, frame and masonry, part of it a historic district, with lap siding, wood windows, porches and original doors, and the condo buildings on the beach and the Intracoastal with unit doors and balcony sliders in the salt air. We save the originals, rebuild the frames and siding, fit stainless hardware and put a condo scope in writing for the board.
Concrete-block ranches from the 1950s and 1960s with jalousie and builder doors, where the wood is the fascia, the soffits, the garage door jamb and the pergola out back. Doors stop closing tight, jambs go at the slab, fascia goes behind the gutters. We rehang, rebuild the jambs and replace the doors past saving with the impact doors you choose.
Golf homes and condo communities with heavy impact doors, sliders and association schemes. Heavy doors sag, multipoint locks stop catching, rollers flatten, and the association expects the match. We rehang on heavy-duty hinges, reset the locks and put the finish in writing for the form.
Age and water, in that order. Hollywood Lakes and downtown were built from the 1920s on, with wood siding, wood windows and doors that have taken a hundred rainy seasons; the beach adds salt that strips paint and eats hardware; the block houses west of Dixie keep their wood where it is hardest to see. Small jobs, steadily, and cheaper this year than next.
Doors, hardware, siding, trim, drywall, plaster patches, fences, decks, rot, caulk and the condo list are handyman work. Florida reserves electrical, plumbing, air conditioning and roofing for state-licensed contractors and a porch beam that carries the roof for an engineer, so we say which on the call and tell you who to call. The licensed pest company treats the termites; we rebuild afterward.
Most Hollywood jobs are priced on the call from a description or a photo, in writing, before anything is scheduled. A wall of siding, a rebuilt frame or a bathroom refresh gets a look first and a written scope. What you approve is what you pay at the house.
Hollywood is in Broward, Miami-Dade is next door, and both make up the high-velocity hurricane zone, with the strictest door and shutter rules in the state. A new exterior door here needs the same approvals as in Miami, and the same crew checks them: your call rings our Miami office, twenty-five minutes down I-95, and we say so plainly.
The sticking door, the drywall hole, the gate that drags. Call or text it over and we price it on the call, in writing.
Hinges, strikes, weatherstrip, anchors, compound, fasteners and the common parts ride on the truck, so one visit usually clears the list.
Anything that needs opening a wall, rebuilding a frame or matching a finish gets a look and a written price before we start.
We tidy up, walk you through what was done, and the one-year workmanship warranty is in writing.
Florida has no handyman license; it licenses contractors. Anyone paid to repair or improve a structure is a contractor under state law, casual minor work under a set small amount is exempt, and structural work, roofing, air conditioning, plumbing and electrical are reserved for state-licensed contractors, with Broward issuing its own certificates for the specialty trades. Kaminskiy Care and Repair is bonded and insured, its technicians Kaminskiy-certified and background checked; we do the carpentry, doors, siding, drywall, fences, rot and finish work and send the licensed trades to the right license.
Hollywood builds to the Florida Building Code as adopted in Broward County, and its own code says no permit is needed for general maintenance and repairs that do not change the occupancy, under the set cost the Building Official applies: a rehung door, a run of siding, a sill, a patched wall. A replacement exterior door is permitted work with a product approval, and a rebuild into a porch beam or a rafter is a permit and an engineer. The 2026 state exemption is decided by the city on request and never in a flood zone, so we do not promise it.
In the high-velocity hurricane zone a replacement exterior door needs a permit and a product with a Florida or Miami-Dade approval that passed the impact tests for this zone, or a shutter over the opening; a big-box door without that approval will not pass, so we check the approval and the size before you order. If your house is in the Hollywood Lakes historic district, check with the city before changing a visible exterior element; a repair that matches what is there is the simplest case. On the beach, condo buildings of three stories or more carry the state milestone inspection: unit doors, closers, railings and trim are ours, the structural findings are the engineer's.

Usually, yes. A sound wood door can be planed, rehung and sealed, its frame rebuilt where termites or rot got in and its hardware replaced with stainless. If the slab is gone, a new impact door is the better buy, and we tell you on the call.
Florida has no handyman license and reserves electrical, plumbing, air conditioning, roofing and structural work for state-licensed contractors, which we send to the right license. Carpentry, doors, siding, drywall, fences, rot and finish work are ours: Kaminskiy Care and Repair is bonded and insured and every technician is Kaminskiy-certified and background checked.
Not ordinary maintenance and repair under the set cost the city applies, which is most door, siding, sill and drywall work. A replacement exterior door, a change to a visible element in the Lakes historic district, or a rebuild into framing is where we check with the city first and tell you on the call.
