What Mount Hope homeowners should know about walk-in tubs
The median home in Mount Hope was built in 1977, and about 67% 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 Holmes 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.
Only about 49% of occupied homes in Mount Hope are lived in by their owners, so many residents rent. Renters should check with the property owner or manager before hiring anyone for a walk-in tub installation.
