What an older Concord house changes about the job
Housing in Concord is mostly pre-1978, with antique homes in the village and in West Concord. That shapes the work in three ways.
- Lead-safe rules. Federal and Massachusetts rules apply to paid work in pre-1978 housing once a job disturbs more than 6 square feet of painted surface in a room. Contractors need a Lead-Safe Renovation Contractor licence. We will say plainly what applies to your kitchen at the estimate.
- Structure. Removing a wall between kitchen and dining room is structural work. Read about kitchen layout changes.
- Permits and review. Ask the town's building department which of your jobs need a permit, and whether your street sits in a historic district, since that can affect the schedule. Concord is also in the state's fossil-fuel-free building pilot, so check before adding gas lines.
Old vinyl floor tile can contain asbestos. Testing comes before anything comes up.
