First Coast standards
Built forthis coast.
How we build for Florida humidity, salt air, and the age of these houses.
Moisture and humidity
We waterproof and seal where it counts. In this climate a shortcut behind the wall rots the finish out from the inside within a couple of years.
Coastal materials
Near the water, salt air is hard on finishes. We match materials to take it instead of failing in a season or two.
Older-home surprises
Riverside, Avondale, and Ortega homes hide dated plumbing and past repairs. We open it up, show you what is there, and fix the cause before we cover it.
Permits and code
Structural, plumbing, and electrical work in Duval and St. Johns counties needs permits. We pull the ones we are responsible for and build to code.
One licensed crew
Licensed and insured, one crew from demo to final trim. No subs bouncing through and nobody pointing fingers between trades.
Daily cleanup
Floors protected, dust kept down, and the space cleared at the end of each day. Your final walkthrough happens on a clean job site.

Home remodeling in Atlantic Beach, FL, built for a coastal climate. HammerHead handles bathrooms, kitchens, full-home remodels, and finish work across Atlantic Beach and the Jacksonville beaches. Nine years local, licensed and insured. Call (904) 604-7606 or get an estimate.
Living at the north end of the Jax beaches is great. It’s also hard on a house. Salt air, humidity, and wind wear on finishes, hardware, and anything behind the wall that wasn’t sealed right.
Built for the beach
Nine years on the First Coast has taught us what lasts near the water and what doesn’t. Atlantic Beach is a family-oriented town — older cottages from the mid-century mixed in with newer coastal builds, all of it close enough to the ocean that the climate has a vote in every project.
When we scope a bathroom or kitchen here, we factor that in: the fixtures, the hardware, and the waterproofing. We’ll give you a straight opinion on where it’s worth spending to avoid a redo in a couple of years, and we build to the coastal requirements that come with being near the beach.
Older cottages hide things, too. Salt and moisture damage behind the walls is common near the water, and we find it, show you, and fix the cause instead of papering over it.
FAQs
Common questions.
What clients ask about scope, timeline, and how the work runs.
What materials hold up to salt air in Atlantic Beach?
Salt air and wind are hard on metal, hardware, and finishes this close to the ocean. We steer you toward fixtures and materials that hold up near the water and away from the ones that pit and rust in a season. It's the kind of call that saves you a redo.
Do you build to coastal and wind requirements?
Yes. Homes near the beach fall under coastal building requirements, and we build to code for them. If your project needs a permit or has to meet wind or flood requirements, we'll tell you up front and handle the parts we're responsible for.
Can you remodel an older beach cottage?
Yes. A lot of Atlantic Beach is older cottages mixed in with newer builds, and the older ones often have salt and moisture damage behind the walls. We find it, show you, and fix the cause instead of covering it up.
Do I need a permit to remodel in Atlantic Beach?
Most structural, plumbing, and electrical work needs a permit here. We pull the permits we're responsible for and build to code. If your project needs one, we'll tell you up front.
What kinds of remodels do you do at the beach?
Bathrooms, kitchens, full-home remodels, and finish work like tile, flooring, and stone — in older cottages and newer coastal homes alike. One crew, one point of contact, from a single room to the whole house.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. HammerHead is licensed in Florida and carries insurance. We'll confirm it before any work starts.
