What Dover homeowners should know about bathroom remodeling
The median home in Dover was built in 1969, and about 66% were built before 1980. 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.
The U.S. Department of Energy places Craven County in climate zone 3A (warm, humid). In a damp climate, a bathroom exhaust fan that vents outside (not into the attic) helps prevent mold.
About 75% of homes in Dover are single-family houses, and about 60% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners.
