Bordentown Township is a separate municipal government from Bordentown City. An act of the New Jersey State Legislature created the Township on January 31, 1852. The Township built its first Township Hall on Cemetery Lane in 1903. In 1931 it annexed a parcel from Chesterfield Township bounded by Crosswicks Creek, Groveville Road, and Sandhill Road — a boundary the Crosswicks Creek still defines on the township's western edge. Peter Muschal School followed in 1953, the current Municipal Building in 1961, and Bordentown Regional High School in 1965. By the time voters approved the creation of the Bordentown Regional School District in 1982, the township had filled in with the residential subdivisions that now characterize most of its land area.

The township's housing stock is predominantly postwar construction — ranch homes, split-levels, and colonial-style subdivisions built from the 1950s through the 1980s. That era of construction has specific roofing, siding, and window characteristics that differ from both the older urban row-home stock in adjacent Bordentown City and from contemporary new construction. UCC permits for the township — including roofing, siding, windows, and fences — are handled by the shared construction office at 1 Municipal Drive, which serves Bordentown Township, Bordentown City, and Fieldsboro Borough under one roof.

Exterior Work Across Bordentown Township's Postwar Neighborhoods.

Same craftsmen, same materials, same warranties as any in-home contractor — without the in-home sales pitch.

Roofing in Bordentown Township

The ranch and split-level homes that define Bordentown Township's postwar neighborhoods carry lower roof pitches and deck conditions that differ from older urban housing stock. We measure your actual building from the aerial, model the pitch and drainage paths, and write a scope matched to the era and construction type of your specific address — not a template built for something else. UCC permits go through Paul Knicos at the shared construction office at 1 Municipal Drive; we handle the filing and all required inspections.

Siding in Bordentown Township

Mid-century siding on a township ranch or split-level has a specific wall profile, corner detail, and window trim proportion that varies from both older and newer housing types. We read the construction era from your aerial before specifying materials, so the replacement siding fits your building's actual geometry. All UCC siding permits in Bordentown Township are filed with the shared construction office at 1 Municipal Drive, covering the township, the city, and Fieldsboro — one office, three governments, and we know how it works.

Windows & Doors in Bordentown Township

We measure every opening from your facade, confirm the right drop-in dimensions, and show you the replacement on your 3D model before anything is ordered. The written quote includes the permit through the construction office at 1 Municipal Drive and all inspections through close-out.

What Shapes Exterior Work in Bordentown Township

Mid-Century Housing Stock, Crosswicks Creek, Shared Permit Office.

Exterior work in Bordentown Township comes down to three concrete realities:

  • Postwar housing era: the township's residential subdivisions were built largely in the 1950s–1980s, with roof pitches, wall assemblies, and window dimensions specific to that construction era. Applying a specification built for Victorian rowhouses or contemporary new construction to a 1965 split-level is the fastest path to a poor-fitting scope. We read the era from the aerial before pricing anything.
  • Crosswicks Creek corridor: the creek that defined the township's 1931 annexation boundary still runs along the western edge of the municipal footprint. Lots adjacent to the Crosswicks Creek corridor carry added moisture exposure on siding and trim, and low-lying parcels near the water can see frost-heave and drainage conditions that differ from higher interior lots. We flag creek-adjacent addresses before finalizing flashing and drainage details.
  • Shared permit office: One construction window at 1 Municipal Drive covers three distinct governments — Bordentown Township, Bordentown City, and Fieldsboro Borough. Building Inspector Paul Knicos (609-298-2800) is the point of contact for all three. Knowing your address falls under the township (not the city) matters when filing, because the governing records diverge even though the permit window does not. We sort the jurisdiction, route the application to Paul Knicos's office, coordinate the inspection sequence, and pull the final close-out — the township homeowner never has to sort out which government their address belongs to.
Why Bordentown Township Homeowners Choose D'Bros

We Know the Postwar Stock and the Shared Permit Office.

Mid-Century Housing — Specified for the Era

The ranch homes and split-levels built in Bordentown Township from the 1950s through the 1980s have roof decks, wall profiles, and window dimensions specific to postwar construction — not the same as Victorian row homes in adjacent Bordentown City or today's new builds. We read the construction era from your aerial and write the scope for your actual building type, so the spec fits what you have.

Three Governments, One Permit Window — We Handle It

Bordentown Township's UCC permit office at 1 Municipal Drive serves the township, Bordentown City, and Fieldsboro Borough — three separate governing bodies, one shared Building Inspector (Paul Knicos, 609-298-2800). Knowing which government your parcel belongs to matters when the same address might be attributed to the township or the city depending on the mailing ZIP. We confirm the jurisdiction, file the permit application directly with Paul Knicos's office, and track every required inspection to close-out.

Bordentown Township FAQ

Questions Bordentown Township Homeowners Ask.

Is Bordentown Township the same government as Bordentown City?
No. Bordentown Township and Bordentown City are two completely separate municipal governments in Burlington County, NJ. The Township was created by a New Jersey State Legislature act on January 31, 1852. The two governments share a ZIP code (08505), a school district (Bordentown Regional, created by voter approval effective July 1, 1982), and a construction permit office (1 Municipal Drive), but each has its own governing body, municipal accounts, and official records.
The township and the city share a permit office — how does that affect my project in Bordentown Township?
Under an interlocal arrangement, a single Construction Office at 1 Municipal Drive serves Bordentown Township, Bordentown City, and Fieldsboro Borough — all three under one Building Inspector, Paul Knicos (609-298-2800). From a contractor's standpoint, this means permit applications, inspection requests, and permit close-outs for a Bordentown Township address all route to the same window as applications for Bordentown City and Fieldsboro. We sort the jurisdiction, submit the application for your township parcel through Paul Knicos's office, work the inspection schedule, and get the final close-out documented before the invoice goes out.
What era is most of the housing stock in Bordentown Township?
The township's residential subdivisions were built predominantly in the postwar decades — largely the 1950s through the 1980s — following the 1953 construction of Peter Muschal School and the 1965 opening of Bordentown Regional High School, which made the township an attractive location for suburban residential development. The housing stock is predominantly ranch homes, split-levels, and colonial-style detached houses from that era, with roof and wall dimensions specific to mid-century construction standards.
My Bordentown Township address is near Crosswicks Creek — does that change the roofing or siding scope?
It can. Crosswicks Creek runs along the township's western boundary — the same natural line that defined the 1931 annexation from Chesterfield Township — and properties adjacent to that corridor carry elevated moisture exposure on siding and trim. Low-lying parcels near the creek can also experience drainage and frost-heave conditions that differ from higher interior lots. We check your parcel's position relative to the creek and adjust the flashing and drainage details in the spec before finalizing anything.
Which ZIP codes are assigned to Bordentown Township?
Bordentown Township's 8.656 square miles fall within four ZIP codes: 08505 (the code shared with Bordentown City), 08515 (the Chesterfield Township corridor), 08610, and 08620. D'Bros works throughout the township's full footprint and all bordering municipalities — Bordentown City, Chesterfield Township, Fieldsboro Borough, Florence Township, Mansfield Township, Springfield Township, Hamilton Township, and Trenton City.
