Before you hire for a bathroom remodel in Cumberland Center
Census estimates put the median build year in Cumberland Center at 1975; about 14% were built in 2000 or later. Kitchens and bathrooms from this era often keep their original layout and plumbing. 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.
Cumberland County is in IECC climate zone 6A, a cold, humid climate, on the U.S. Department of Energy's county map.
