What Somerset homeowners should know about walk-in tubs
The median home in Somerset was built in 1980, and about 49% were built before 1980. Many homes of this age still have their first kitchen or bathroom. 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 Somerset 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. Cold winters make exterior walls matter. If walls are opened, ask whether insulation will be added before they are closed.
