What Udell homeowners should know about bathroom remodeling
Census estimates put the median build year in Udell at 2003; about 25% of homes were built before 1950. In newer homes, remodels are often updates to fixtures, tile and cabinets without moving plumbing, which usually keeps permits simpler. 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.
Appanoose County is in IECC climate zone 5A, a cool, humid climate, 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. Cold winters make exterior walls matter. If walls are opened, ask whether insulation will be added before they are closed.
