Nazareth housing

What Nazareth homes mean for your bathroom.

Nazareth has about 3,300 homes. Median year built: before 1940. 34% are detached singles, 9% were built since 2000, and 42% of occupied homes are owner-occupied. That is among the five oldest housing stocks of the 22 communities we serve.

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.

A typical bathroom remodel at our $15k–$35k planning range equals about 6%–15% 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.

Nazareth permits

Nazareth bathroom remodeling permits — what to expect.

Permit office
Borough of Nazareth Code Enforcement
134 S Main St, Nazareth, PA 18064
(610) 759-2547
How the permit fee is set
Set by borough or township ordinance under the PA Uniform Construction Code and calculated on the estimated cost of construction, so it scales with the job rather than being a flat ticket. We publish a figure only where we have transcribed that municipality's own schedule, and we have not yet done so here — call the office above, or ask us and we will price the permits as part of your estimate.
We have not transcribed Nazareth'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 Nazareth 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.

Nazareth's zoning and building code services are administered by Barry Isett & Associates. A zoning application is $100, and building permits may need additional fees and original copies, so check with the Building Code Official before you file.
