Handyman Service Across Jersey City, NJ

Jersey City is New Jersey's second-largest city, home to roughly three hundred thousand people on a long peninsula between the Hudson and the Hackensack, and its housing is layered like a core sample. Downtown holds some of the oldest row houses in the state, brick and brownstone homes from the 1840s onward around Paulus Hook, Van Vorst Park, Hamilton Park and Harsimus Cove. The Heights, once its own town called Hudson City, sits on the Palisades with block after block of two- and three-family frame houses. Journal Square and McGinley Square mix pre-war brick apartment buildings with newer towers, while Greenville, Bergen-Lafayette and the West Side are full of attached and detached multi-family homes from the late 1800s through the 1920s. And along the Hudson, Newport, Exchange Place and the Liberty Harbor area have filled with high-rise condos and rentals since the 1980s. In a single day we might re-secure plaster in a Van Vorst Park parlor, then mount a TV in a forty-story Newport tower that needs an elevator booking and an insurance certificate on file.

The city's daily routine runs along a few lines on the map. The PATH trains stop at Newport, Exchange Place, Grove Street and Journal Square; the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail threads along the waterfront and down through Bergen-Lafayette and Greenville toward Bayonne; Kennedy Boulevard runs the length of the city as its north-south spine; and the Turnpike extension and Route 139 carry tunnel traffic toward the Holland Tunnel. Big green spaces anchor the neighborhoods, from Liberty State Park and Lincoln Park to Pershing Field and the small square parks downtown. Street sweeping rules and residential permit zones make parking a real factor here, so we plan our stops around them.

Jobs we handle a lot in Jersey City

A typical week in the city covers a lot of ground: plaster cracks and drywall patches in older homes, doors that swell and bind through humid summers, gutters and leaders clogged with leaves from street trees, fixtures and fans swapped in old and new homes alike, faucets and running toilets fixed in two-family rentals, TVs and shelving mounted in condos, and turnover punch lists for the many owners who rent out a floor of their house.
