Vic Hyder: A Life of Service, Leadership, and Trust
Some People Never Stop Serving
For some people, service is more than a profession.
It’s a way of life.
That perfectly describes Vic Hyder, owner of Ace Handyman Services Miami Kendall.
After spending 20 years serving as a U.S. Navy SEAL officer and retiring with the rank of Commander (O-5), Vic could have chosen any number of paths. Instead, he chose one that continues to serve people every day—helping homeowners and businesses throughout Miami-Dade County maintain, repair, and improve the places that matter most.
His career may have changed.
His commitment to serving others never did.
Twenty Years Leading with Honor
Leadership isn’t learned overnight.
It is developed through experience, responsibility, and a willingness to put others first.
During two decades in the United States Navy, Vic served as a Navy SEAL officer, leading in some of the most demanding environments imaginable. His military career required discipline, preparation, sound judgment, and calm decision making under pressure.
Those experiences shaped the leader he is today.
While his military career included moments of extraordinary courage—including receiving the Silver Star for valor during combat operations—Vic prefers not to define himself by medals or recognition.
Instead, he believes that the true measure of a person is how they serve others every single day.
That philosophy continues to guide both his life and his business.
Service Takes Many Forms
Today, Vic serves in a different uniform.
As the owner of Ace Handyman Services Miami Kendall, he helps families and businesses solve everyday problems that make a real difference in people’s lives.
Whether it’s repairing drywall, installing doors, replacing flooring, painting a room, completing carpentry work, or helping with larger renovation projects, every customer receives the same professionalism and attention to detail.

Meet Kona
There is another familiar face that customers and fellow business professionals immediately recognize.
Her name is Kona.
Vic’s beautiful black German Shepherd accompanies him to many networking events and community activities throughout South Florida.
Wearing her Ace Handyman “HandyDog” vest, Kona has become something of a local celebrity. Calm, attentive, and incredibly friendly, she often becomes the first conversation before business even begins.
For Vic, Kona is much more than a service dog.
She is a trusted companion who has been by his side through countless days of work, travel, and community involvement.
Together, they represent something customers immediately understand.
Loyalty.
Dependability.
Trust.
Building Relationships Before Building Repairs
Ask anyone who has met Vic and they’ll likely mention the same qualities.
He’s approachable.
He’s genuine.
He’s easy to talk to.
Those characteristics have helped him build relationships throughout South Florida, both professionally and personally.
His business philosophy is simple.
Treat every customer the way you would want someone to treat your own family.
Show up when you say you will.
Do quality work.
Stand behind what you do.
Communicate honestly.
It’s a straightforward approach, but one that has earned Ace Handyman Services Miami Kendall an outstanding reputation throughout the community.
Still Serving the Community
Military service eventually comes to an end.
Service to others doesn’t have to.
Today, Vic continues making a difference—not on distant battlefields, but in neighborhoods throughout Miami-Dade County.
Every completed repair…
Every satisfied homeowner…
Every business owner whose project is completed professionally…
Those are the missions that matter now.
And just like throughout his Navy career, Vic approaches each one with professionalism, integrity, and quiet confidence.
“The greatest leaders are often the ones who never stop finding new ways to serve.”
Vic Hyder’s story is not simply about military service or home repairs. It is about a lifetime dedicated to helping others. From serving his country as a Navy SEAL officer to serving his community through Ace Handyman Services Miami Kendall, he has built a reputation based on integrity, professionalism, and trust. Alongside his loyal companion Kona, Vic continues proving that true leadership is found in showing up every day and making a positive difference in the lives of others.
