Lancaster city houses have character, and character has consequences. Rowhomes from the early 1900s come with plaster walls, sloping pine floors, narrow stairs and bathrooms that were added wherever they fit in 1958. We love these houses. We also know exactly where they hide their surprises.
DAVMEL Remodeling works across the city and the surrounding townships, from Chestnut Hill and Cabbage Hill rowhomes to ranches in Manheim Township and East Hempfield. City work means tight access, shared walls and sometimes a permit process with a historic review. We plan for all three, and we keep the sidewalk clean because your neighbors are four feet away.
Our most requested Lancaster jobs are bathroom remodels in older homes, plaster and drywall restoration, and full room renovations where floors, walls and trim all need attention at once.

Lancaster questions
Do you work in Lancaster city historic districts?
Yes. Interior work rarely triggers historic review, and for exterior changes visible from the street we help prepare what the Historical Commission wants to see. It adds a step, not a wall.
Can you handle parking and debris in tight city blocks?
We manage permits for dumpsters or use trailer hauling on tight streets, protect the sidewalk, and broom clean daily. Rowhome remodeling is a courtesy sport and we play it well.
