Hawaii Repair Services
Expert Repair Services in Honolulu – Fast, Reliable Solutions When You Need Them Most
When Your Home Needs Immediate Attention, We’re Here
I’ll never forget the call I got from a young couple who’d just moved into their first home in Kailua. Their kitchen cabinet door had ripped right off the hinges while unpacking dishes – the Hawaiian humidity had weakened the old screws over time. What seemed like a simple fix revealed something bigger: several other cabinets had the same issue waiting to happen, plus the drawer slides were corroded from years of salt air exposure. Within two hours, I’d reinforced all the cabinet hardware, replaced the damaged drawer slides, and showed them how to maintain their cabinets in Hawaii’s climate. Cost them less than $200, but I probably saved them from a complete cabinet replacement down the road.
That’s exactly why we started Handy Andy Hawaii – because small repairs handled right prevent big expensive problems later, and every homeowner deserves someone who actually takes the time to look beyond the obvious issue.
I’ve spent over a decade fixing homes across Oahu, and I’ve learned that most repair problems share one thing in common: they get exponentially worse when ignored. What starts as a small ceiling leak can destroy drywall, compromise structural integrity, and cost thousands more in just days. Hawaii’s tropical climate doesn’t give you second chances – salt air, humidity, and sudden storms accelerate damage faster than anywhere on the mainland.
Emergency Repair Services That Actually Answer the Call
When disaster strikes your Honolulu property, you need more than a voicemail – you need someone who picks up, shows up, and fixes it right. Our emergency repair services in Hawaii operate with one simple promise: we’re available when other contractors aren’t, and we respond in hours, not days.
I’ve seen too many homeowners lose thousands because they couldn’t get emergency repairs handled quickly. A burst pipe on a Friday evening. A damaged door after a break-in attempt. Water damage spreading through drywall while you wait for callbacks. These aren’t “Monday morning” problems – they’re right-now emergencies that demand immediate attention.
Our emergency response covers:
- 24/7 water damage and leak repairs across Oahu
- Same-day drywall repair for holes, cracks, and water damage
- Emergency door repair and security restoration
- Urgent ceiling repair after leaks or storm damage
- Immediate electrical and plumbing fixes to prevent further damage
- Storm damage response and temporary weatherproofing
The Repair Services Honolulu Homeowners Trust Most
Drywall Repair – From Small Patches to Complete Restoration
Living in Hawaii means your walls take a beating from humidity, salt air, and the occasional wayward surfboard. We specialize in drywall repair that matches your existing texture perfectly – whether it’s a small patch from a doorknob mishap or extensive restoration after water damage.
We’ve repaired everything from tiny nail holes to entire wall sections compromised by leaks. The key is proper preparation: matching the texture, feathering the edges, and using Hawaii-appropriate materials that resist mold in our humid climate. Standard mainland techniques don’t always work here – We’ve learned through experience what actually lasts on Oahu. Once repairs are complete, our painting services can restore your walls to like-new condition.
Floor Repair – Protecting Your Investment From Tropical Wear
Hawaii’s climate is particularly hard on flooring – humidity warps wood, salt air corrodes tile grout, and our sandy soil tracks abrasive particles that wear down surfaces faster than you’d expect. I provide comprehensive flooring repair services including:
- Tile floor repair and replacement for cracked or damaged tiles
- Laminate floor repair for water-damaged or lifted sections
- Hardwood floor repair addressing moisture damage and scratches
- Grout repair and resealing to prevent water infiltration
- Ceramic repair for chips and cracks
One client had gorgeous hardwood floors that were buckling from humidity exposure – we identified the source of moisture intrusion, repaired the damaged sections, and implemented proper ventilation. Five years later, those floors still look perfect.
Kitchen and Bathroom Repair – The High-Traffic Zones
Kitchens and bathrooms take the most abuse in any home, and in Hawaii’s humid environment, these repairs require special attention to prevent recurring issues. For more extensive kitchen renovations or bathroom remodeling, we offer comprehensive services beyond basic repairs.
Cabinet and Drawer Repair: We fix everything from loose hinges and broken drawer slides to complete cabinet door replacement. Water damage under sinks is particularly common here – We address both the visible damage and the underlying cause to prevent it from happening again.
Countertop Repair: Whether you have granite, laminate, or tile countertops, chips and cracks don’t just look bad – they harbor bacteria and can spread. We provide professional countertop repair that blends seamlessly with your existing surfaces.
Shower and Bathroom Repairs: Leaking shower pans, cracked tiles, failing grout, and water-damaged walls – We’ve fixed them all. The key in Hawaii is using proper waterproofing techniques that account for our climate. A mainland-style patch job often fails within months here.
Door Repair – Security and Function Restored
A door that doesn’t close properly isn’t just annoying – it’s a security risk and an energy efficiency nightmare in Hawaii’s cooling climate. Our carpentry services team handles all door repairs including:
- Front door frame repair and replacement
- Sliding door track repair and hardware replacement
- Screen door repair and rescreening
- Lockset and deadbolt installation
- Door alignment and weatherstripping
We recently helped a property manager whose rental unit had a damaged door from a break-in attempt. We not only repaired the frame and installed a reinforced door, but upgraded the security hardware – giving both the owner and tenant peace of mind.
Ceiling Repair – From Stains to Structural Issues
Hawaii’s heavy rains make ceiling leaks one of our most common repair calls. Whether it’s water stains, sagging drywall, or structural damage from long-term leaks, We provide comprehensive ceiling repair services.
The critical part isn’t just patching the ceiling – it’s identifying and fixing the leak source. We’ve seen too many “repairs” that just painted over stains while water continued damaging the structure above. We always trace leaks to their source and fix both the cause and the effect. When roof issues are the culprit, our roofing contractor team can handle complete roof repairs and replacements.
Tile Repair – Precision Work for Lasting Results
Damaged tile is more than cosmetic – broken tiles allow water penetration that can destroy underlayment and subfloors. Our tile repair services include:
- Individual tile replacement matched to existing patterns
- Grout repair and recoloring
- Caulk replacement around tubs and showers
- Floor tile repair for cracked or lifted tiles
- Wall tile repair in bathrooms and kitchens
We maintain a collection of tile samples and have relationships with Hawaii suppliers to match discontinued patterns – something that’s saved countless projects from becoming full replacement jobs.

Commercial Repair Services – Minimizing Downtime for Oahu Businesses
Your business can’t afford to wait days for repairs. Our commercial services include commercial tile repair, drywall restoration, and general maintenance for Honolulu businesses who need fast, professional repairs that don’t disrupt operations.
We recently completed commercial tile repair for a hotel – working overnight to replace damaged lobby tiles so guests never even noticed the work being done. That’s the level of service your commercial property deserves.

We have used Handy Andy for numerous contracting jobs for the past 4 years, and in those 4 years I cannot say enough praise on the quality of work. They have done remarkable work on our condo and have been very responsive to our needs. There was only one issue that we had and the staff was able to correct it quickly and meet our timeline. We are leaving the island and one of the regrets is that we will have to find a new handy man to work with when we arrive at our new location. Mahalo Handy Andy, and Aloha!Posted on David HuttoJuly 3, 2020Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I hired Handy Andy to fix the drywall for a customer of ours. We replaced the AC system for this VIP client, and hired Handy Andy to repair the drywall in the places we had to cut in to replace the ACs. Handy Andy delivered amazing quality results, at a fair price. The customer was extremely pleased. They also were very professional, on time, cleaned up after themselves. You can trust Handy Andy to do a great job at a great price. Thanks guys! AlohaPosted on NightStrikeApril 2, 2020Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

It’s rare to find a worker so young and knowledgeable but that’s exactly what I found in Brice. He arrived right on time, was clean and well spoken, and got right to work. He protected my floor and cabinets before doing a GREAT job painting my kitchen. Left cleaner than he found it. Can’t say enough good things, will definitely use them in the future.Posted on Anthony RodriguezAugust 3, 2019Google rating score: 4.2 of 5, based on 27 reviews
