Home Services for New Houses in Ponce de Leon, Florida
The air leakage test, shelving, gutters and garage door a new Ponce de Leon house needs, plus repairs for houses already lived in.
Building a house in Ponce de Leon
A new house in Ponce de Leon, ZIP 32455, can use all four of our services before move-in: a blower door test for the Florida energy code, wire shelving for the closets and pantry, seamless gutters, and a garage door. Big Bend Services, Inc. works with builders and with owners building their own homes, and repairs gutters and doors on existing houses too.
Book through the Wewahitchka office at (850) 819-6031, Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, or use the form. Tell us what stage the house is at and when each part should be ready.

What to send for a house under construction
Send the address and the permit number, the name and number of the builder or site contact, and the date each part of the house will be ready. If a separate garage or workshop is part of the build, list it too.
Book the blower door test ahead of your deadline. If the test date slips, call and a new test date is set.
Inside the boundary
Blower door test: the attic and garage in a new Ponce de Leon house
A vented attic
Outside the test.
An attic sealed and insulated at the roof deck
Opened to the house and measured with it.
An attached garage
If it is not heated or cooled, it stays outside, and the wall and door between it and the living area are part of the measured boundary.
Finishes
Paint, flooring, trim, cabinets and countertops do not change the reading.
Test day
How the blower door test runs on a new house
A fan is fitted in an exterior doorway, and it holds the house at the test pressure while the leakage is measured.
Outside openings
Exterior windows and doors closed but not sealed, and fireplace and stove doors shut.
Dampers
Exhaust, intake and flue dampers closed.
Inside the house
Interior doors open where they are installed, and supply and return registers fully open.
Equipment
Heating and cooling turned off.
Gutters
Gutters on a new Ponce de Leon roof
Seamless runs
Formed on site to each roof edge, with joints only at the corners and outlets.
Size and style
The standard gutter is the 6-inch size. Half-round gutters come in aluminum or copper.
Downspouts
A long run can take a downspout at each end so it drains in two directions.
The rest of the lot
A porch or a detached garage on the same lot can get gutters in the same job.
Above ground
Downspouts can be placed, extended or added, and our drainage work stops there, with no buried lines or French drains.
Garage doors
A new garage door, or an older one that needs work
Grinding or rattling
Worn rollers and hinges are replaced.
Daylight around the edges
New weather seals along the bottom, sides and top of the door.
The opener hums but the door stays put
Opener repair, or a new opener.
The door backs up before it closes
The safety sensors are realigned or replaced.
A dented section
A panel repair, or a new door if the damage runs across it.
New commercial buildings in Ponce de Leon
A shop, office or warehouse going up in Ponce de Leon can book gutters, doors and shelving the same way a house does. Gutters, commercial and roll-up doors for each opening, and wire shelving for the storage rooms can each be booked as the building reaches that stage. Give the builder's contact and the business name. The blower door test we offer covers newly built homes, not commercial buildings.
