Palmer Township housing

What Palmer Township homes mean for your bathroom.

Palmer Township has about 9,300 homes. Median year built: about 1979. 71% are detached singles, 28% were built since 2000, and 82% of occupied homes are owner-occupied.

Median home value

Bathrooms from these decades are often compact, with a tub-and-shower combination and limited ventilation. Check the exhaust fan and the condition of the floor and walls before choosing finishes.

A typical bathroom remodel at our $15k–$35k planning range equals about 5%–11% 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.

Palmer Township permits

Palmer Township bathroom remodeling permits — what to expect.

Permit office
Palmer Township Building & Zoning
3 Weller Pl, Easton, PA 18045
(610) 253-7191
Permit fees (residential alterations)
A kitchen or bathroom remodel is an interior alteration permit: $100 under 500 square feet, $250 at 500 square feet and over. Trade permits are separate flat fees — electrical $60, plumbing $75, mechanical $75 — and the certificate of occupancy for a renovation to a principal use is $10, plus the $4.50 Pennsylvania UCC surcharge. Beyond two re-inspections, each further one is $100. Beginning construction without the required permit triggers the compliance penalty fee: 200% of the applicable permit fee.
A 180 sq ft kitchen with new wiring, new plumbing and a vented range hood: $100 interior alteration + $60 electrical + $75 plumbing + $75 mechanical = $310, plus the $10 certificate of occupancy and the $4.50 state surcharge — $324.50. With no mechanical work it is $249.50.
Read from the official Palmer Township schedule on November 6, 2026. Residential figures; commercial work is charged differently. Fees change — confirm before you budget.
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 Palmer Township 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.
