When he graduated from Avon High in 1999, he said he gained a lot of experience building and renovating during his school years: “I started out building siding and windows. Then I moved to start building additions and remodels. I could always find a way to make a space work and be used.”
He said he’s always thinking about new ideas: “Always think outside the box. I have always tried to learn from all my experiences.”

Myers went back to school to earn his teaching degree and still strives to achieve that goal.
In addition, owning a business and being a community leader in more ways than one was also a dream: “I felt that Canton needed a handyman living in a small town; one that Grandma and Grandpa could call to fix the toilet seat or clear the leaves from their garden.”

With, he said, a handyman who is very professional and can handle larger jobs, “I think Canton is a community that needs some local reach in this trade. In these times we need someone who wants the community to thrive, to help others and make things affordable. I want to be honest with my customers and give them the best support and customer service. I want to be able to give a little back to the community my children have come to love.”
