Exterior carpentry, sheetrock repair and whole house repainting for Moss Point's older homes, on the same run east from Ocean Springs.
Moss Point is 20.4 road miles from our Ocean Springs base, about 30 minutes, in the same county and on the same run east as Pascagoula. All Types Remodeling and Repair can reach it for carpentry and rotten wood repair, sheetrock and drywall repair, and interior and exterior painting.
One thing about Moss Point catches contractors out. The city does not operate its own building department. Building permits are handled through the Jackson County Building Department, while zoning questions specific to Moss Point, including variance requests, conditional use permits and rezoning applications, stay with City Hall on McInnis Avenue under Chapter 42 of the city code, adopted 7 December 2021. That is two different phone calls on one job.
The county department that issues those permits sits at 2915 Canty Street in Pascagoula, works from the 2018 International Building Code, and takes residential work on its Application A Residential Building Permit form. So Moss Point paperwork physically travels to Pascagoula and the inspection standard is the county's adopted code edition, not a city amendment. Knowing that before a job starts saves a homeowner a wasted trip to the wrong counter.
The housing itself is the oldest around here. Moss Point's median year built is 1968, with 4,688 of its 5,865 units, 79.9 percent, built before 1980 and only 130 units, 2.2 percent, since 2010, per the ACS 2020-2024 5-year survey.
Four houses in five predate 1980, so original wood siding, soffit and fascia are all at or past the end of their service life together. Opening a run of trim on a house of that vintage usually reveals an older patch underneath, so we write the estimate to cover finding one.
Our services in Moss Point
Soft fascia, sagging soffit, spongy window trim and porch framing that has gone punky. We cut out the bad wood, seal the new wood on every face, and put the run back straight.
See carpentry and rotten wood repair details →Ceiling stains, holes, cracked seams and popped tape. We find the water first, cut back to solid board, then float and texture the repair so the wall reads as one surface again.
Sheetrock and Drywall Repair in Ocean Springs →Inside and outside, brush and roller work that starts with prep. We fix the bad wood and the bad drywall first, because paint over a soft board is money you spend twice.
Explore interior and exterior painting →Updating a tired kitchen or bathroom, or opening a wall and changing the layout. One crew handles the carpentry, the board work and the finish, with the price set before demolition starts.
Our kitchen and bathroom remodeling process →Dripping taps, running toilets, tired supply lines and the wall and floor damage a slow leak leaves behind. We say plainly what we take on and what has to go to a licensed contractor.
See plumbing repairs details →Small fixture and device work on circuits that already exist, plus the patching and paint that follows. Panel, service and new circuit work goes to a licensed electrical contractor.

Not at Moss Point City Hall. The city does not run its own building department, so building permits go through the Jackson County Building Department at 2915 Canty Street in Pascagoula, which works from the 2018 International Building Code and uses its Application A Residential Building Permit form. Zoning matters, including variances and rezoning, stay with City Hall.
Because that side takes the heat. NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals for the nearest station, Pascagoula Lott International Airport, record 80.3 days a year at or above 90 degrees, the highest heat day count serving this coast. That bakes the oil out of coating on the sun facing walls, so the south and west elevations go first while shaded sides still look fine.
Very possibly. NOAA's storm records list a 130 mile per hour EF-2 tornado on 19 June 2023 that touched down near the confluence of the Pascagoula and Escatawpa rivers and moved southeast. EF-2 winds strip roof decking and blow out gable ends, and the repair tail runs for years afterward as soffit, fascia and ceiling drywall work.
Yes, and they are common here. NOAA records an EF-1 tornado on 1 November 2018 that tore the porch roof off a house on Riverlodge Drive. Porch and carport framing is exposed, water fed carpentry that decays quietly between storms, so rebuilding one properly means checking the ledger and the posts, not only swapping the visible rotted board.
