What Baltimore homeowners should know about walk-in tubs
The median home in Baltimore was built in 1964, and about 73% 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 Fairfield 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.
About 60% of homes in Baltimore are single-family houses, and about 54% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners.
Permits and licenses in Baltimore
Moving plumbing, adding electrical circuits or changing walls usually needs a permit; swapping fixtures in place usually does not. In Baltimore, permits come from the city's building department, or from Fairfield County for addresses outside city limits. Ask the company who pulls the permit, and keep a copy of it.
