Palmyra is a borough of about seven thousand just east of Hershey, with Annville a few miles east and North Londonderry Township around it. It is a bit of a drive, so Fox Gables Construction focuses on the bigger jobs in this area: roof replacements, full siding, whole-house windows and decks.
Josh is straightforward about the distance. If the job is worth a day or more, Palmyra works fine. If it is a one-hour repair, he will say so and may suggest a closer contractor, unless he is already scheduled nearby.
Houses in Palmyra and what they need
Palmyra has a brick downtown from the 1800s and early 1900s and large neighborhoods from the 1950s through the 2010s. The older homes have slate, porches and wood windows. The 1960s to 1990s homes are at roof, siding and window replacement age. The newer subdivisions in North Londonderry Township want decks, porches and basements.
Many Palmyra and Annville homes have asphalt roofs installed in the 1990s and 2000s that are reaching the end of their life at the same time, which is why roof replacement is the most common call from this area.
