Do I need a permit to remodel a bathroom in New Jersey?

A permit is needed to remodel a bathroom in New Jersey if:

  • Plumbing or electrical work is required
  • There will be structural changes to accommodate the footprint of the remodeled bathroom (e.g. knocking out a wall, absorbing closet space, etc.)
  • You’ll be adding skylights or windows (this means cutting into walls and framing)
  • You’re installing a new water heater
