What Florida homeowners should know about bathroom remodeling

The median home in Florida was built in 1988, and about 34% were built before 1980. Many homes of this age still have their first kitchen or bathroom. Decide early whether you want to move fixtures, since that changes the permit and the scope. Federal EPA rules require firms that disturb painted surfaces in homes built before 1978 to follow lead-safe work practices. Ask whether the company is EPA lead-safe certified.

About 6% of Florida's counties are in climate zone 1A (very hot, humid), based on the U.S. Department of Energy's county map. In a damp climate, a bathroom exhaust fan that vents outside (not into the attic) helps prevent mold. Check your own county's zone, since conditions differ across the state.

Permits and contractor licensing in Florida

Moving plumbing, adding electrical circuits or changing walls usually needs a permit; swapping fixtures in place usually does not. In Florida, building permits are issued by cities and counties, so the rules depend on where the home is. Ask the company who pulls the permit, and keep a copy of it.

The Construction Industry Licensing Board within Florida DBPR licenses contractors. Look the company up with the Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Construction Industry Licensing Board before you sign.
