Raritan Township surrounds the county seat of Flemington. We design and engineer additions, second stories and renovations in both.
Raritan Township covers about 38 square miles at the center of Hunterdon County and completely surrounds the borough of Flemington, which became independent in 1910. Communities include Copper Hill, Reaville, Larisons Corners and Flemington Junction, and the South Branch of the Raritan and the Neshanic River run through the center. The 1760 John Reading Farmstead is on the National Register and part of the Raritan and Readington South Branch Historic District.
Older Flemington homes and later township subdivisions both see a lot of additions. Our engineers evaluate the existing house first and design the structure with the architecture.

In New Jersey, most additions and structural renovations need zoning approval from the town before the construction permit, and the construction permit itself is reviewed under the state Uniform Construction Code. When a design needs relief from a setback, coverage or height limit, it goes to the town's land use board for a variance hearing.
Flemington and Raritan Township are separate municipalities with separate zoning, so the first step is confirming which applies to your home.
Properties along the South Branch and the Neshanic may be near mapped flood areas. We check flood mapping before design.
However your project is approved, we deliver signed and sealed drawings to you, support you and your contractor through the permit submission and answer the building department's review comments in house. Read how a project moves from consultation to close out on our process page.
