Easton housing

What Easton homes mean for your bathroom.

Easton has about 11,400 homes. Median year built: before 1940. 25% are detached singles, 6% were built since 2000, and 44% of occupied homes are owner-occupied. That is among the five oldest housing stocks of the 22 communities we serve. Attached homes are also more common here than in most of our service area.

Median home value

In homes this age, expect the work behind the tile to matter most. Older supply and drain lines may need replacing once the room is open, and a new shower needs proper waterproofing rather than tile over old walls.

About 34% of homes here are attached, mostly twins and rowhomes. Shared walls and stacked plumbing limit where a shower or vanity can move, so a new layout should start from where the drains already are.

A typical bathroom remodel at our $15k–$35k planning range equals about 8%–18% of the median home value here. If resale matters to you, weigh your scope against that.

If your home was built before 1978, painted surfaces may contain lead. Ask how lead hazards will be assessed before any work disturbs paint, and read the EPA's homeowner guidance.

Easton permits

Easton bathroom remodeling permits — what to expect.

Permit office
City of Easton Code Enforcement Department & Planning Office
City Hall, 2nd Floor, 123 S 3rd St, Easton, PA 18042
(610) 250-6724
How the permit fee is set
Set by City ordinance § 285-5 (Chapter 285, Fees) and applied to the cost of construction; applications are filed through Easton's OpenGov permit portal.
We have not transcribed Easton's own fee schedule yet, so there is deliberately no dollar figure here. A number we have not read off the municipality's document is a guess, and a wrong permit figure is worse for your budget than an honest gap — the office above will quote it, and we pull the permit either way.
Permit review window
Pennsylvania sets the ceiling, not the township: under the Uniform Construction Code a building code official must grant or deny a residential permit application within 15 business days of the filing date, or the application is deemed approved (34 Pa. Code § 403.63(a)). That drops to 5 business days where the drawings were prepared and certified by a Pennsylvania-licensed design professional, and only a written agreement with the applicant can extend it. This municipality publishes no review standard of its own, so we quote the statute rather than a number nobody has verified — and we file the application and follow it through either way.

Most Easton bathroom remodels involving plumbing, electrical or structural changes require a building permit. VM Power Kitchen & Bath pulls permits, schedules inspections and coordinates compliance as part of every design-build contract — you don't navigate the office alone.

College Hill and Downtown Easton have historic overlay districts. Interior kitchen and bath work is typically permitted through standard residential review.
