Home remodeling in Turnersville, NJ

The median home in Turnersville was built in 1981. 48% of its 1,190 homes were built before 1980 and 8% before 1960, and 93% are owner-occupied (U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024).

For most remodels, yes. Moving plumbing, adding circuits, changing walls and building additions need a construction permit (N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.14); painting, flooring, cabinets and like-for-like fixture swaps are ordinary maintenance and do not (N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7). Turnersville is not its own municipality; it lies mostly in Washington Township, so permits come from the Washington Township construction office: 523 Egg Harbor Road, Turnersville, NJ 08012, (856) 256-0234 (N.J. Department of Community Affairs roster). If your tax bill names a different municipality, use that one's office. The office must approve or deny a complete application within 20 business days (N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.16).
