What Denver homeowners should know about walk-in tubs
The median home in Denver was built in 1975, and about 56% 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.
Denver County is in IECC climate zone 5B, a cool, dry climate, on the U.S. Department of Energy's county map. Cold winters make exterior walls matter. If walls are opened, ask whether insulation will be added before they are closed.
