About Clarksboro homes
Clarksboro is a historic unincorporated community in East Greenwich Township. Its older village center has houses that are much older than the subdivisions that have filled much of the township since 2000. East Greenwich also includes Mickleton and Mount Royal.
Clarksboro is part of East Greenwich Township, which Census estimates describe as follows: The median home was built in 2001; the largest share was built in the 2000s; 56% have been built since 2000; 87% are detached single-family houses. Big Cat General Contractor works in the historic village center and the newer neighborhoods around it.
Popular projects in Clarksboro
These are the services Clarksboro homeowners ask us about most. All of our other services are available too.
Deck Building
Newer Clarksboro homes often have a sliding door and no deck yet. We design and build wood or composite decks under a township permit. We offer composite and pressure-treated lumber.
Deck Building details →Painting
We paint newer Clarksboro homes, including updating the original builder paint colors. We paint cabinets in-house.
Painting details →Roofing & Siding
On newer Clarksboro homes, we see shingles wearing out early from poor attic ventilation. We correct the intake and exhaust venting when we replace the roof. We also replace gutters and repair storm damage.
Roofing & Siding details →Kitchen Remodeling
In newer Clarksboro homes, kitchen work is usually an upgrade from builder-grade cabinets and counters, with better lighting, an island or a pantry. You get a written scope before work begins.
Kitchen Remodeling details →Bathroom Remodeling
For newer Clarksboro bathrooms, we often swap a garden tub for a large walk-in shower with a bench and niche, and add a frameless glass door. We finish with tile, fixtures and paint.

- Permits. Clarksboro is an unincorporated community, not its own municipality, so permits and inspections go through East Greenwich Township under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. We confirm the correct office from your property record and file for you.
- Site conditions. Much of South Jersey sits on sandy coastal-plain soils. They drain well in many places, but low spots can hold water. We check grading and gutters before building decks or finishing basements.
- Weather. South Jersey's freeze-thaw cycles and nor'easters are hard on roof edges, gutters and siding. Ice-and-water shield at the eaves, good attic ventilation and properly sized gutters prevent most problems.
- House age. About 56% of East Greenwich Township homes have been built since 2000. Builder-grade finishes, unfinished basements and aging decks are the most common reasons owners call us.
- Historic character. The village has a number of older homes, which call for care with trim, siding and paint.
Questions from Clarksboro homeowners
Do you work on both the older Clarksboro homes and the newer developments?
Yes. The work differs. Older village homes need lead-safe practices and attention to trim and framing, while newer homes are usually ready for basements, decks and upgrades.
What are the most popular projects for newer Clarksboro homes?
Finishing basements, building decks and upgrading kitchens, primary baths and flooring. Many homes are also reaching the age for a first roof replacement.
