Handyman in Riviera Beach, FL
One of the closest cities to my shop. Mainland Riviera Beach is a short run up the road — and Singer Island has its own page.
The Palm Beach Fixer is an insured, owner-operated handyman service covering Riviera Beach and Singer Island. I handle ceiling fans, faucets and plumbing fixtures, drywall repair, TV mounting, door and trim carpentry, and smart home installs — for single-family homes on the mainland and for oceanfront condos on the island.
Handyman Services in Riviera Beach
Mainland Riviera Beach is practical, everyday repair work on mid-century houses and small multifamily buildings. Here is what I get called for most.
Everyday Home Repair
The running list — fans, lights, faucets, doors, patches — knocked out in one visit.
Ceiling Fans & Lighting
Replacement and installation, including fans rated for covered balconies and salt exposure.
Plumbing Fixtures
Faucets, toilets, shutoff valves, shower trim, and the corrosion that comes with coastal water.
Drywall & Paint Repair
Patching, texture matching, and repairs after a leak or a moved appliance.
TV & Wall Mounting
Concrete and block walls included — the ones a drywall anchor will not touch.
Smart Home Setup
Smart locks, thermostats, cameras, and video doorbells configured and confirmed working before I leave.
Neighborhoods We Cover in Riviera Beach
I cover mainland Riviera Beach across the neighborhoods either side of Blue Heron Boulevard, from the marina district westward.
Mainland Riviera Beach is largely mid-century single-family and small multifamily construction — block walls, original supply lines, and electrical that has been added onto over decades. Being a mile or two from open water still means salt in the air, so hardware and fixtures give up faster here than they would inland.
Why Riviera Beach Homeowners Call The Palm Beach Fixer
Riviera Beach is close — genuinely one of the shortest drives on my route from Northwood. That matters more than it sounds. Short drive means I can take the small job you have been putting off, and it means if something needs a second look I can come back without it becoming an ordeal.
Coastal buildings eat hardware. Hinges seize, fixture finishes pit, and outdoor-rated is not optional a block from the ocean. I spec parts for the environment they are actually going into rather than whatever was cheapest at the store.
Looking for the island? Singer Island condo work — service elevators, certificates of insurance, and concrete-wall mounting — has its own page here.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover Singer Island too?
Yes — Singer Island has its own page because condo-tower work is a different job from mainland house repair. Certificates of insurance, service elevators, and concrete-wall mounting are all covered there.
Can you mount a TV on a block wall?
Yes. Block and concrete need masonry anchors and the right bit, not drywall hardware. Most mid-century Riviera Beach houses are block construction, so this is routine.
How much does a handyman cost in Riviera Beach?
Hourly runs $87 to $125 depending on scope and access. Fixed prices cover the common jobs — $150 per ceiling fan, $50 to $75 per outlet or switch, bathroom faucets from $150, kitchen faucets from $250, hardwired Ring cameras at $200 each.
How quickly can you get to Riviera Beach?
It is one of the closest cities to my home base in Northwood. You will get a callback the same day, and Riviera Beach is usually among the easiest jobs on my schedule to fit in quickly.
Do you handle salt-air corrosion problems?
I deal with the results of it constantly — seized hinges, pitted fixtures, corroded hardware. I replace with parts rated for coastal exposure so you are not doing it again in a year.
