Before you hire for new flooring in Scotland
The median home in Scotland was built in 1985, and about 50% were built before 1980. In homes of this age, the main prep questions are usually subfloor flatness and moisture in concrete slabs. Ask the installer how both are checked. 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.
