Working in Westampton
Westampton was incorporated in 1850 from part of Northampton Township (now Mount Holly). It includes Rancocas village, Woodlane and Timbuctoo, a historic Black community founded in the 1820s. The township borders Burlington Township, Eastampton, Hainesport, Mount Holly, Mount Laurel, Springfield and Willingboro, and about a third of its homes have been built since 2000.
Census estimates (ACS 2020-2024) describe Westampton's housing like this: The median home was built in 1991; the largest share was built in the 2000s; 34% have been built since 2000; 60% are detached houses and 31% are twins or townhouses. Big Cat General Contractor works in Rancocas, Woodlane, Timbuctoo and the newer townhouse and single-family developments.

- Permits. Permits and inspections in Westampton are handled by Westampton 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.
- Storms. Nor'easters and the remnants of tropical storms bring heavy wind and rain. We use high-wind shingle nailing patterns, sealed flashing and secure gutter hangers.
- Newer construction. About 34% of Westampton 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.
