Who issues building permits in Hamilton, NJ?
Permits in Hamilton come from the Hamilton Township construction office at 2090 Greenwood Avenue, Hamilton 08650, (609) 890-3666. 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 Hamilton?
Hamilton township, Mercer County has about 37,628 homes. The median home was built in 1964, and 75% 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 new home take?
It depends on the size of the job. MHG sets your schedule while the plan and budget are finalized, before work starts, and walks you through progress week by week.
