Kitchen, bath, and whole-home renovations across Mount Joy.
Mount Joy's mix of historic downtown homes and newer developments keeps our renovation work varied, from updating an older borough home to reworking a kitchen in a newer build. Every project starts with a free walkthrough and a fixed quote, and is managed start to finish by one Apex project manager.
Renovating in Mount Joy
Downtown homes and the newer developments
Mount Joy has a historic Main Street of brick homes from the 1880s to the 1930s and, around it, developments built from the 1990s through today. The older homes bring the usual second-floor bath, narrow kitchen and plaster walls; the newer ones are now at the age where the original kitchen, carpets and baths are ready for a refresh. We handle both, often in the same week.
Permits in the borough and the townships
A Mount Joy address can fall under Mount Joy Borough, Mount Joy Township or Rapho Township, and each issues its own permits. We confirm which one on the walkthrough. Structural, electrical, plumbing and HVAC work needs a building permit; paint, flooring and a straight cabinet swap usually do not. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections and meet the inspector, so you never deal with the office yourself. Any home built before 1978 gets lead-safe work practices from our EPA RRP certified crew, with containment and cleanup built into the schedule.
The projects we see most here
Kitchen refreshes in 2000s builds, one-bath-at-a-time updates in the older homes, finished basements with a bedroom and a full bath, and additions for families staying put in the Donegal school district. Smaller jobs are welcome: a single bathroom is two to three weeks, a kitchen four to eight, and every job gets the same fixed quote and project manager.
