Merchantville is barely more than half a square mile, incorporated in 1874, and it holds one of the densest collections of Victorian housing anywhere in Camden County. The borough grew as a commuter settlement in the decades when Philadelphia’s professional families were moving out along the rail lines, and the houses they built show it: Queen Annes with corner turrets and wraparound porches, Second Empire and Italianate work, slate roofs, patterned shingle in the gables and a great deal of decorative glass. Almost everything predates 1920. Those houses were designed around tall, narrow double-hung sash, round-headed and curved windows in the turrets, and small ornamental lights in the upper sash. Because the borough is small and the lots are close, work here happens in full view of the neighbors — and in Merchantville, that matters.
Victorian work in a borough this size is careful work. We record the existing profiles — sash proportion, muntin width, the shape of every arched head — before ordering, and build to those dimensions. Curved turret units are made to template. Decorative upper sash is retained where it can be, reproduced where it cannot. Surrounding shingle, brackets and porch detail are protected throughout.
We will go around your house and document every opening, including the awkward ones in the tower and the gable.
