Before you hire for a bathroom remodel in Saylorsburg
Census estimates put the median build year in Saylorsburg at 1967; about 17% of homes were built before 1950. Kitchens and bathrooms from this era often keep their original layout and plumbing.

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 Monroe County in climate zone 5A (cool, humid). In a damp climate, a bathroom exhaust fan that vents outside (not into the attic) helps prevent mold.
