Small-item repairs from your inspection report, repair addendum or closing punch list, quoted line by line so you can see what we can finish.
Real estate inspection repair covers the handyman-level items from a home inspection report, buyer or seller repair request, pre-listing list or closing punch list, such as loose railings, GFCI outlets, screens, caulking and door adjustments. Items that need a licensed specialist are identified line by line so they can be handled separately.

About Sanford: Sanford is the Seminole County seat, northeast of Orlando on the south shore of Lake Monroe at the head of navigation on the St. Johns River. Brick-lined First Street, the lakefront Riverwalk and four local historic districts sit alongside newer homes and apartments.
An inspection report arrives with dates attached, and most of what it lists is small: a loose railing, a torn screen, a missing detector. In Sanford the same kind of list can come from very different buildings. Some homes are much older than others, and near downtown the city lists local historic districts. The first job is the same for all of them: read each line against what a handyman can actually repair.
Typical lines are a door that drags, a lock that needs adjusting, a sticking window, cracked caulk, a GFCI outlet and a scuffed wall. On an older frame house, a small soft section of trim or a door jamb is often added to the list. Each line is reviewed against the document, and anything that calls for a specialist trade, such as roofing or air conditioning, is flagged rather than attempted. Some lines will fall outside handyman scope.
Bring the inspection report or repair request, any addendum, and the dates attached to them. For a condo, townhome or HOA property, contact your HOA or building management before work starts, since an item may not be yours to fix. Questions about who pays for what belong with your agent or a real estate attorney, and no repair can be promised to satisfy a buyer or a re-inspection. Our post on inspection repairs before closing has more. Call (407) 638-8956 with the list.

Often, yes, for handyman-level items such as loose railings, GFCI outlets, sticking windows, screens, caulking and minor wood rot. Findings that need a licensed specialist, such as roofing, HVAC or major electrical and plumbing, are better flagged early so they do not hold up closing.
Humidity, sun and heavy rain drive many of them: sticking doors and windows, failed caulking, torn screens and minor wood rot on trim. A soft or stained spot may point to a moisture source, so it is worth confirming the cause before the cosmetic repair is made.
In many cases, both. Sellers and agents often work through repair requests before closing, while buyers and investors often handle accepted items after taking possession. Sending the inspection report or signed addendum early lets the list be quoted item by item.
Possibly, and the first step is finding out who owns it. Railings, screens, doors and paint may need approval, and some items may belong to the association. Check with your HOA or building management before work starts. Each line is then reviewed on its own.
Minor rot in small trim, fascia or door jamb sections fits handyman scope. Rotted decking, framing or structural members do not. For changes to what shows on the exterior, ask your local building department or HOA, and expect each line to be reviewed on its own.
Gather the report or request, any addendum, the dates attached, and photos of the items. Your agent or a real estate attorney can answer who pays for what. Then request service online or call (407) 638-8956, and each item gets reviewed line by line.
