Gulfport sits right on Boca Ciega Bay, and most of its homes have been here a long time. Census counts show about 625 housing units built in 1939 or earlier, plus 668 more from the 1940s. Close to 9 in 10 housing units in town went up in 1989 or earlier. Cottages, block houses and bay condos all reach a point where the bathroom needs work.
Flow Home Services is a handyman and remodeling company based in St. Petersburg, a short drive from Gulfport. We start with the repair list: doors, drywall, paint, trim, tile, mounting and hardware. We also do full bathroom remodels and kitchen updates in the same house. Call or text (727) 404-7164 and send a few photos for a free estimate.

Gulfport grew up around the bay, and the housing stock shows it. Census figures put about 44 percent of the town's housing units at 1959 or earlier. Wood cottages from the 1920s and 1930s sit a block away from 1950s block houses. Both kinds of homes build a repair list over the years.
Doors swell and stop latching in the summer. Old plaster and drywall crack at the corners of the ceiling. Trim splits, hardware wears out, and last decade's paint no longer matches. Small jobs like these are the reason the company started, and we still take them.
We hang interior and exterior doors, patch and texture walls, repaint rooms, mount what needs mounting and set tile. For a seller getting a Gulfport cottage ready, that punch list is often the whole job. Doors, trim and wall repair carry most of that list in an older cottage.
Small bathrooms are the rule in older Gulfport homes. A cottage bathroom is often five feet wide with a tub against the back wall. We work inside the room you already have, so the layout stays put and the walls stay where they are.
A tile shower is the job people ask for most. We set large format porcelain on the walls and build a niche for bottles. An uncoupling and waterproofing membrane goes under the floor tile. A new vanity, a mirror, fresh trim and paint finish the room.
Kitchens in town run small too, and plenty of them are galley style. Cabinets, a countertop, a tile backsplash, new flooring and paint change the room without touching the footprint. Condo kitchens get the same treatment. About 22 percent of Gulfport housing units sit in buildings with 20 or more units.
Hurricane Helene passed on September 26, 2024, and the damage in Gulfport was mostly flooding. Hurricane Milton followed on October 9, 2024, with wind and rain. The city's building official wrote that over 600 Gulfport properties took flood damage of one degree or another.
Homes close to the bay took water in the living space. Some of those houses are still waiting on the finish work. That is the part we do: drywall put back and textured, new floors laid, doors rehung and rooms painted.
A flooded bathroom or kitchen usually comes back as a remodel rather than a patch. We tear out what is damaged, tile the shower, set the vanity or the cabinets, and finish the walls. Insurance and flood paperwork stay with you and your carrier.
Gulfport borders St. Petersburg, so the drive over is short. Everything runs out of our St. Petersburg base. We come to you, look at the job, talk through the options and leave you a written estimate.
Permits in Gulfport run through the City of Gulfport Community Development Department at City Hall on 53rd Street South. The city asks homeowners to call before a home improvement project so staff can explain what is required. After the 2024 flooding, the city also said repairs to flood damaged homes in a flood zone need a permit. Confirm your own address with the city.
Estimates are free. Text photos of the bathroom, the wall or the door to (727) 404-7164 and we can work from there. Flow Home Services is a disabled veteran-owned company, and we work in English and Spanish. Our Google profile carries a 5.0 rating from six reviews.

Christian has been helping my seller clients prepare their home for resale and for my buyer clients to get the upgrades they desire in an excellent timeframe. I highly recommend Christian and his team and look forward to working with them on future projects. (Before and after photos of rooms Flow Home Services painted for my clients).
Christian and his team did an incredible job at building our backyard shed. This was an involved job that other handymen would not touch. The project consisted of framing, siding, roofing, painting, securing into concrete, etc. his skill and attention to detail was impressive. Christian was very reliable and showed up on time everyday ready to work. In addition, Christian updated us numerous times throughout the day with progress pictures and videos as we were traveling during the holidays. The team cleaned up and we can home to a fully built 10x14 ‘ shed/garage. If you are looking for a reliable, skilled handyman/builder, look no further. We will be using Flow Home Services again soon.
