24/7 handyman service
Any Time Any Job Handyman is a licensed handyman service working in Shrewsbury from a base in Long Branch — plumbing, electrical, carpentry, painting and general repair, answered open 24 hours, 7 days a week. The detail below is specific to houses here.
Quick answer
Any Time Any Job Handyman covers Shrewsbury Borough 24 hours a day. The borough dates to 1664 and carries colonial-era fabric where exterior work can need preservation review. Mention Broad Street or Sycamore Avenue if you are in the older core. (732) 924-8444.
Local record
Shrewsbury Borough is a fraction of the 1664 township that carried the name, but it holds some of the oldest building fabric in the county — including Christ Church (1769), where exterior work can trigger historic preservation review.
Housing stock
Shrewsbury was founded in 1664 and is Monmouth County’s second oldest town — the original township was large enough that Fair Haven, Brielle and others were carved out of it later. The oldest building fabric in this part of the county is here, alongside everything added since, and the two are not always obvious from the street.

Permits & codes
Christ Church was built in 1769 to a design by the colonial architect Robert Smith, replacing a 1738 structure. It was used as a barracks during the Revolution and still carries a bullet hole in the steeple gilt ball and a musket ball in the original pulpit. In a town with that much surviving fabric, historic preservation review on exterior work is a live question rather than a formality.

It can on exterior work. Christ Church dates to 1769 and the borough holds some of the oldest building fabric in Monmouth County. Work that changes what the street sees on a contributing property can pick up review — interior and like-for-like repairs usually do not.
They are separate municipalities. Present-day Shrewsbury Borough is a small fraction of the 1664 township — Fair Haven, Brielle and others were carved out over time. Permits and construction offices are borough-specific.
Around Broad Street and Sycamore Avenue, with newer development sitting behind the historic core. A street from the 1700s and a 1980s subdivision need different scoping — the cross street matters more than the borough name alone.
