Working in Winslow Township

Winslow Township was formed from Gloucester Township in 1845. It had a large glass industry in the 1800s, built on local timber, clay and sand, and later became mostly farmland. About 80% of the township is in the Pinelands National Reserve. Besides Sicklerville, it includes Blue Anchor, Cedar Brook, Ancora, Braddock and Tansboro, and it borders Monroe and Washington townships in Gloucester County.

Census estimates (ACS 2020-2024) describe Winslow's housing like this: The median home was built in 1984; 23% have been built since 2000; the largest share was built in the 1970s; 70% are detached houses and 15% are twins or townhouses. We serve homeowners in Sicklerville, Blue Anchor, Cedar Brook, Tansboro, Braddock and Ancora.

Local considerations

What to know before a project in Winslow

  • Permits. Winslow Township handles construction permits and inspections for Winslow. We prepare the drawings and applications, schedule inspections and keep the approved permit on site.
  • 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.
  • 1970s and 1980s construction. About 41% of Winslow homes were built before 1980. Common issues include aging roofs, original windows and siding, poor attic ventilation and lead paint in homes built before 1978.
  • Pinelands. Most of Winslow is in the New Jersey Pinelands. Additions, new structures and land clearing can require Pinelands Commission review on top of the local permit. Sandy, fast-draining soil also affects deck footings and drainage.
FAQ

Questions from Winslow homeowners

Does the Pinelands affect projects in Winslow?

For most interior work, no. For additions, new outbuildings or clearing land in the Pinelands portion of the township, extra review may apply. We check early so the design fits the rules.

Should I replace my Winslow roof and siding together?

If both are near the end of their life, doing them together lets us flash windows, walls and roof edges as one system, and it usually costs less than two separate projects.

Do I need a permit for a remodel in Winslow?

Many projects do, including decks, roofing, basements, structural changes and most plumbing and electrical work. Permits go through Winslow Township. We handle the application and inspections.
