Robertsville is a census-designated place and unincorporated section of Marlboro Township. There is no Robertsville mail city, so addresses here may read Morganville, NJ 07751 or Marlboro, NJ 07746, depending on the street.
If water has reached your floors or walls, this page explains how to describe your location, how to document the loss, and why drying takes the time it does. The main city page for Marlboro covers the rest of the township.
Robertsville addresses that read Morganville or Marlboro
The township lists Robertsville Fire Co. #2 at 94 Route 520 and Robertsville Elementary School at 36 Menzel Lane, and both carry Morganville, NJ 07751 addresses. Other Robertsville streets are listed under Marlboro 07746. We cover both ZIPs on this page, and 07751 is also shared with the neighboring Morganville area.
Wikipedia reports that the census place was named Robertsville in 1980, renamed Morganville in 2000 and restored to Robertsville in 2010, so older records may mix the two. When you call, give a street, a cross street and one landmark.
Landmarks and edges to name on the phone
Wikipedia describes Route 9 along the west side of Robertsville and Route 18 along the east side, with Tennent Road and Route 520 crossing it. The Old Robertsville School stands at Tennent Road and Union Hill Road, and the Union Hill Recreation Complex is on Union Hill Road. A call-taker who hears you are behind the Union Hill fields can place the house faster than one who hears only a ZIP.

Building the paper trail for your insurer
Robertsville is mostly owner-occupied. The 2010 Census, as published by the state labor department, counted 3,941 housing units here, and 95.8% of occupied units were owner-occupied. For homeowners, the claim record starts at the moment of discovery, before anything is moved or thrown out.
Photograph the source, the waterline and each damaged item, and write down when you first saw water. Keep a failed part, such as a split hose, in a bag. Photos and moisture readings can support a record, coverage depends on cause and policy, and your insurer decides, so ask your insurer.
Drying timelines by material
Standing water comes out first, as described under water extraction. Drying is the slower part, and it usually takes several days, depending on what got wet and for how long. Crews check readings on each visit and stop only when the materials read dry.
| Material | Drying behavior | What crews check |
|---|---|---|
| Hardwood and laminate | Absorbs along the boards and may cup | Moisture reading at the board and the subfloor |
| Drywall and baseboard | Wicks water upward from the floor | Readings at several heights and inside the wall cavity |
| Carpet and pad | Pad holds water long after the surface feels dry | Pad and tack strip readings |
| Framing and subfloor | Dries slowly because it is thick | Readings repeated each visit until stable |
Slow drying matters because mold needs moisture. If you see growth, the mold remediation page explains how testing and removal follow ANSI/IICRC S520. Health questions belong with a physician.
Before anyone arrives: protect what you can
Work through these only while it is safe, and stop if water is near electrical equipment.
Close the valve
Shut the fixture valve or the main. Open a low faucet to relieve pressure after the main is closed.
Stay dry near electricity
Leave the panel alone unless it is dry and you are on dry ground.
Keep a record
Take photos before moving anything, then keep receipts for any plumber or supplies.

The October 26, 2021 township notice
On Oct 26, 2021, during a Flash Flood Warning, the township reported Canadian Woods closed at Robertsville, Texas Road with minor flooding, and Crine Road flooded and closed near Village Road. The notice gives no cause for the Canadian Woods closure, and Crine Road is not shown to be in Robertsville.
Read it as one dated notice, nothing broader. Neighborhood-specific FEMA flood-zone status not verified, so check the FEMA flood map for your address. After heavy rain, storm water damage cleanup differs from plumbing repair.
Which company supplies your water depends on the address. Check your water bill and ask the township if you are unsure.
Safety before cleanup
Water can reach outlets and appliances in many rooms.
- Stay out of any room where water touches an outlet, panel or appliance.
- Do not run breakers while standing in water. Call 911 or the utility for electrical danger.
- Gas smell: leave and call 911 or the gas utility.
- Sewage and contaminated water are not a DIY job. Keep children and pets out.
Robertsville homeowner questions
No. Many addresses read Morganville, NJ 07751 or Marlboro, NJ 07746. Call (732) 352-9660 and give the street, a cross street and a landmark such as Menzel Lane, Route 520 or Union Hill Road.
Take wide shots of each wet room, close shots of the waterline and damaged finishes, and the source of the water. Add a short note of the time you found it. Photos and moisture readings can support a record, and your insurer decides how they are used, so ask your insurer.
Surfaces dry before the material underneath does. Pads, subfloors and wall cavities hold moisture a touch cannot find. Crews repeat meter readings at each visit. Ask any company whether its crews work to ANSI/IICRC S500, the published drying standard.
Close the supply to that fixture, then call a plumber if the leak is in a supply line or drain. Call the restoration line for the wet ceiling, wall and floor below. Do not stand under a sagging ceiling.
No. The notice lists road conditions on one day and does not say why Canadian Woods closed. If you worry about flood coverage, ask your insurer, since standard homeowners policies generally exclude flood.
