Madison Calls It Something Different

If your property is in a historic district or listed as a historic site on the borough zoning map, you need approval before exterior changes. Madison lists roughly 110 such sites.

The local term is a Certificate of Historic Review. That matters, because most of New Jersey calls it a Certificate of Appropriateness, and searching for the wrong one sends you to the wrong page.

There’s a second thing worth knowing. In Madison the review itself is mandatory, but the borough states that compliance with the Commission’s recommendations is voluntary in most cases. Demolition is the exception and can carry binding conditions. Confirm your own situation with the borough before you plan around any of this.

Older Houses Need a Different Approach

Much of Madison’s oldest housing sits around Bottle Hill, where the village grew up around an 18th century tavern at the Ridgedale Avenue junction.

On houses that age, the finish is usually hard coat cement stucco over lath, not a modern synthetic system. It behaves differently, it repairs differently, and it wants a mix that’s compatible with what’s already on the wall. We’ve done that work for years, often as part of a wider building restoration.

Inside and Out

This is where most stucco contractors stop and we don’t. Older Madison homes frequently need work on both sides of the wall.

We do interior plaster as well as exterior stucco. Smooth, sand float, and textured finishes, plus repair matched into existing plaster. Owners of older homes are often told a damaged plaster ceiling has to become drywall because nobody will match the original. It usually doesn’t.

What We Handle

  • Stucco crack repair, patching, and delamination repair
  • EIFS repair and remediation on newer homes
  • Full facade replacement
  • Stone veneer, thin brick, and masonry
  • Interior plaster repair, matching, and new finishes
