Who issues building permits in Pennington, NJ?
Permits in Pennington come from the Pennington Borough construction office at 30 North Main Street, Pennington 08534, (609) 737-0276. That is from the New Jersey DCA roster of construction offices (as of 2026-09-02). Under N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.14 most renovation work needs a construction permit; N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7 lists the ordinary maintenance that does not.
How old are the homes in Pennington?
Pennington borough has about 1,250 homes. The median home was built in 1953, and 71% were built before 1980, according to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS 2024 5-year). Homes built before 1978 can contain lead paint, so federal rules require lead-safe work practices when a renovation disturbs painted surfaces (EPA, 40 CFR 745).
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
Across the U.S. in 2025, a primary bathroom renovation averaged 8.4 months of planning and 4.8 months of construction, according to the 2026 U.S. Houzz & Home Study. MHG sets your schedule while the plan and budget are finalized, before work starts, and walks you through progress week by week.
