What Huntsville homeowners should know about walk-in tubs
Census estimates put the median build year in Huntsville at 1985; about 16% were built in 2000 or later. 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.
