Licensed, insured and bonded · Family-owned in DC since 2013
Trinidad is a rowhouse neighborhood in Northeast DC, bounded roughly by Florida Avenue, Bladensburg Road and Mount Olivet Road, with Gallaudet University along its western side. There is no Metro station in the neighborhood itself. Most residents rely on the bus lines on Florida Avenue and Bladensburg Road, or head to H Street NE a few blocks south.
The housing is consistent: two-story brick rowhouses with front porches, built in the early twentieth century along streets such as Montello Avenue and Trinidad Avenue.
Rekeying a newly bought or newly renovated rowhouse
Many Trinidad houses have been renovated and resold in recent years. During a renovation, keys pass through a lot of hands, from contractors to agents. We recommend a lock rekey on closing day so only your keys work. Our residential locksmith page covers the other home services we offer.
Securing the alley side
Rear doors and basement entries facing the alley are the usual weak points on a rowhouse. We add or upgrade deadbolts, reinforce strike plates and repair doors that no longer latch. If the door itself needs replacing, see door replacement.
Lockouts in Trinidad
