Home Maintenance & Small Repairs.
Middletown & the Bayshore, NJ.
Middletown Handyman covers home maintenance in Middletown, Red Bank, Hazlet, Keyport, Rumson, Fair Haven, and the rest of the Bayshore. Every house keeps a list that never wins a Saturday. This is the visit that clears it: the dryer vent nobody has cleaned since the closing, the draft under the slider, the screen the dog pushed through, the floor that announces every trip to the nursery.
What We Take On
- Dryer vents cleaned and inspected, exterior hoods replaced
- Weatherstripping, door sweeps, and draft sealing
- Window screens and screen doors repaired

- Floor squeaks, loose boards, and transition strips
- Smoke and CO detectors replaced (battery, or like-for-like on existing wiring)
- Mailboxes, house numbers, and doorbells
- Caulk on windows, siding joints, and exterior trim
- Small drywall, door, and trim fixes along the way
Not On The Menu, And Why

- HVAC, boilers, and water heaters

Plain Answers
How often does a dryer vent need cleaning?
Once a year for most houses, more often if the run is long or the dryer needs two cycles for one load. Lint in the duct is the leading cause of dryer fires. We clear the whole run from the dryer to the outside hood and then check airflow with the dryer running.
Can you replace smoke detectors?
Yes. Battery units (we carry 10-year sealed ones) and like-for-like swaps of hardwired heads on the existing wiring, which NJ code treats as ordinary maintenance. Adding a detector where there is no wiring is new work for an electrician.
How do I get the most out of a maintenance Visit?
Walk the house before we arrive and text us the list with photos. Two hours covers a lot when the parts are on the truck and nobody is guessing what is needed.
