Your remodeler down the road in Myerstown
Our shop is at 3564 South 5th Avenue, on the south edge of Myerstown. The trucks park here at night and most Myerstown addresses are under ten minutes from the door, which means an estimate this week and a crew that does not lose an hour of your day to the drive.
Heidelberg Township (Schaefferstown), PAJun 2025afterMyerstown sits in the eastern half of Lebanon County, with Jackson Township around it and Millcreek and Heidelberg Townships just south. It is the tightest, fastest part of our service area, and it is also where the oldest houses we work on are: Pennsylvania German farmhouses from the 1700s and 1800s around Newmanstown and Schaefferstown, with thick masonry walls, low ceilings and additions added generation after generation. Fort Zeller, near Newmanstown, is one of the oldest buildings in the county, and plenty of working farmhouses nearby share its bones.
The newer side of Myerstown is the developments along the edges of the borough and out toward Richland: colonials and split-levels from the last thirty years with aging vinyl siding, worn carpet and basements nobody finished. We work in both kinds of house, often in the same week.
The houses
What houses in Myerstown need
Farmhouses around Newmanstown and Schaefferstown
Stone and brick, thick walls, low ceilings, wiring and plumbing updated piecemeal over decades, floors and walls that are never square. A kitchen or bathroom here is planned for surprises behind the walls, and insulation behind the original plaster is usually thin or missing.
Borough houses on the grid
Brick and frame houses from the late 1800s to the 1950s along Main Avenue and the side streets. One bathroom upstairs, a kitchen at the back, a basement with a stone or block foundation that needs a moisture check before it is finished.
Developments at the edges
Colonials and split-levels with builder-grade finishes: vinyl siding at the end of its life, carpet to replace, a full basement waiting to be finished, a kitchen that was never upgraded from the original cabinets.

Good to know
Working in Myerstown
- Jackson Township and Myerstown Borough each handle permits; we pull them for basements, structural work and anything with new electrical or plumbing.
- Houses built before 1978, which is most of the borough, get lead-safe work practices whenever old paint is disturbed.
- Farmhouse additions often have framing that does not match the original house. We open a wall before we order cabinets or windows for it.
Questions from Myerstown homeowners
Do you charge for travel in Myerstown?
No. There is no travel charge anywhere in our normal service area, and Myerstown is the one place where the drive is measured in minutes.
How fast can you come out for an estimate?
Usually the same week. The walkthrough is free and the written estimate follows within a few days.
Do you work on the old farmhouses outside town?
Yes, and we plan for them: knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized pipes, plaster, out-of-square openings. The contingency we recommend on a farmhouse is 15 percent, and we show you anything we find the day we find it.
Do you take small jobs in Myerstown?
Yes. A floor, a bathroom refresh, a railing, a room of paint. Small jobs in our own town are how most of our clients find us.
