Steps to Acquiring a Permit in South Jersey
Zoning
Plan Submittal
Issuance
Most South Jersey towns require a zoning review before anything else. This step confirms that your deck meets local setback rules, property lines, easements, building coverage limits, and any neighborhood-specific restrictions. Every township handles zoning a little differently, but nearly all require a current survey or site plan showing where the deck will be located.
Once zoning is approved, the next stage is submitting the construction permit package. This typically includes the Building Subcode form, construction permit application, and detailed deck plans. C-JAM provides the drawings and structural details your township needs, so you’re not left trying to figure out code requirements on your own.
After the plans are reviewed and approved by the building department, the township will issue your permit. Permit fees vary throughout South Jersey and are usually calculated as a percentage of the project’s cost or based on the deck’s size. Once the permit is in hand, construction can begin.
South Jersey municipalities each have their own timelines and requirements, so it’s always smart to check your township’s website for exact details. Once construction starts, C-JAM handles all scheduling of inspections and coordinates directly with officials, keeping your project moving without delays.
