Before you hire for a bathroom remodel in Green Bay
The median home in Green Bay was built in 1971, and about 65% 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 Brown County in climate zone 6A (cold, humid). 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.
Permits and licenses in Green Bay
Moving plumbing, adding electrical circuits or changing walls usually needs a permit; swapping fixtures in place usually does not. In Green Bay, permits come from the city's building department, or from Brown County for addresses outside city limits. Ask the company who pulls the permit, and keep a copy of it.
Contractors who pull building permits for one- and two-family homes need a state dwelling contractor credential. Look the company up with the Department of Safety and Professional Services before you sign.
