Before you hire for a bathroom remodel in Rulo
Census estimates put the median build year in Rulo at 1972; about 36% of homes were built before 1950. 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.
Richardson County is in IECC climate zone 5A, a cool, humid climate, on the U.S. Department of Energy's county map.
