First Coast Handyman Services

Servicing the Mandarin and San Marco Area in Jacksonville

I have over 20 years of experience providing quality handyman services originally from South Florida. My commitment is customer satisfaction and this is why I work hard to deliver on what I promise. As a homeowner, I get it. Often times you can not get someone to even respond or come out to estimate a job. Many large companies do not want to complete the small jobs and there is a need for those people requiring home owner or apartment services. That is where I come in. No job is to small. I operate out of the Mandarin so I am local to the service area.

We are here to help...

I have been working on houses and family residential properties for quite sometime and I also live in the Mandarin area. Helping neighbors and giving valid advice to common household tasks is what it is all about.

Years Experience

I am a sole proprietor business so I am the owner, face of the company, and the person who performs the job roles. This is a personal business. No crazy overhead with inflated pricing. That is what it is all about. Keeping it local so clients have choices in the community.

About Your Project

When it comes to a small business, having a relationship with the owner and service provider is the best of both worlds. I can not always guarantee I can take the job due to time constraints, but getting an opinion and honest view of the task is important. I have met some amazing plumbers, electricians, general contractors, and HVAC company owners and know who to call when time or job scale is beyond the service I can provide.

I have them, just ask.

100% Service Guarantee

The job is done right the first time. I only take on what I can handle and within the scope of my schedule. No promises that I can not keep.

Safety First

I do not take on any jobs that are a high risk threat to myself of the property.

No Contracts

No contracts are ever demanded from you. I am an estimate driven business with clear costs and outcomes. No bait and switch. Old school traditions run deep. Trust is imperative.

Matthew Pate, Owner

A little bit about me. I am a Miami transplant here in Jacksonville. I retired as 30 year Technology Production high school teacher and 20 year professor for Miami-Dade College. I owned and operated a computer service company in Miami for 17 years and currently own a company that builds custom outboards for paddle craft. Kayak Buddys, LLC is my passion along with helping people with daily household tasks. Being a part-time tradesman, allows me to work with clients, challenge myself, and serve a need to continue assisting home owners. Working hard is an under statement.
