J BARR Contracting | General Contractors & Roofing in Myerstown, PA 17067

We see ice dam damage and resulting roof deck rot frequently in our Pennsylvania climate. For prevention during a new roof installation or replacement, we focus on proper attic ventilation and insulation to minimize heat loss that melts snow. We also install high-quality ice and water shield along the eaves—a critical barrier against water intrusion. If damage has already occurred, we conduct a thorough inspection to assess the decking and structure, then provide a clear repair plan that addresses both the immediate leak and the underlying cause to protect your home long-term.

We begin every remodeling project with a detailed consultation to understand your needs, style, and budget. For kitchens and bathrooms, we then help you plan the layout, select materials like countertops and fixtures, and establish a realistic timeline. Our team handles all phases of the work, from demolition and plumbing/electrical rough-ins to installation and finishing. We maintain consistent communication throughout the process, keeping your home as tidy as possible and ensuring you're informed at every step. Our goal is a smooth, well-managed project that transforms your space with minimal stress for you.

Yes, we are a full-service contractor. This means we can expertly manage your entire home improvement project, whether it's an interior update like a kitchen remodel or building an addition, or an exterior project like constructing a new deck or installing a roof. Having a single, experienced team handle multiple scopes of work ensures better coordination, consistent quality, and often a more efficient timeline. For example, if you're adding a room, we can seamlessly manage the foundation, framing, roofing, siding, and interior finishes all under one contract.
