Remodeling in Middletown
The houses here
Belford, Leonardo, Port Monmouth and New Monmouth are full of capes and split-levels, with bungalows closer to the bay. Lincroft and Navesink run bigger, with larger colonials. The 1950s were Middletown's biggest building decade, and 66% of its homes went up before 1980.
What that means for your remodel
A cape that's out of bedrooms is a dormer candidate. A split-level kitchen boxed in by a wall is a candidate to open up. In a house this age, we price what we find behind the walls in writing before anybody fixes it.
Permits in Middletown
The Middletown Township Building & Inspection Department, at 1 Kings Highway, handles permits Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM. Inspection requests and permit status go through the township's SDL online portal.
5 historic districts
Chapel Hill, Locust, Middletown Village, Monmouth Hills and Navesink are designated historic districts. If your house sits inside one, find out what review applies before any outside work. We check it at the consult.
Bathrooms in Middletown's capes and split-levels
Half of Middletown's homes were built by 1970, so the hall bath in a Belford cape or a New Monmouth split-level may still have its original pipes and subfloor under the tile. At the consult we look at the floor, the drain and the walls before anybody draws a new layout. Our bathroom remodeling page has the ballpark ranges.
