About Lumberton homes

Lumberton was incorporated in 1860 from parts of Medford, Southampton and Eastampton townships. Eayrestown, founded in the late 1600s, was its first significant settlement, and Fostertown and Newbolds Corner are also in the township. A house on Creek Road is documented as an Underground Railroad site. Lumberton borders Hainesport, Medford, Mount Holly, Mount Laurel and Southampton.

Census estimates (ACS 2020-2024) describe Lumberton's housing like this: The median home was built in 1990; the largest share was built in the 1990s; 22% have been built since 2000; 55% are detached houses and 22% are twins or townhouses. Our crews work in Eayrestown, Fostertown, Newbolds Corner and the township's newer developments.

Local considerations

What to know before a project in Lumberton

  • Permits. Permits and inspections in Lumberton are handled by Lumberton Township under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. Roofing, structural changes, decks, basements and most plumbing and electrical work need a permit. We file the applications and meet the inspectors.
  • Water nearby. Homes near Rancocas Creek can see higher humidity, wet basements or mapped flood zones. We check the flood map and the house's moisture history, and we plan drainage, flashing and materials accordingly.
  • Climate. Humid summers and wet winters mean moisture control matters. That includes bathroom exhaust fans vented outdoors, dehumidified basements and flashing that keeps rain out of walls.
  • Newer construction. About 22% of Lumberton homes have been built since 2000. Those houses are now due for first roof replacements, basement finishing and upgrades from builder-grade finishes, and some neighborhoods have association rules for exterior changes.
