Top 3 Common Problems When Remodeling An Old House
As we were saying, remodeling an old house can be complicated, especially if you’re unaware of the problems it might have. For that reason, we bring you the most common issues you can find when remodeling a house, especially if it’s old.
1. Plumbing
Copper, galvanized steel and cast iron have an average lifespan of 80 years. However, older houses tend to have standing water in them for a relatively long time, which causes corrosion. This can build up in the tubes and can even lead to having rusty orange water if the pipes are left for too long.
2. Electrical problems
Older electrical systems are not adapted to the energy requirements a house has today. Outdated wiring is a fire hazard at home, which will not only leave you without electrical power but also will put your investment and safety at risk. For this reason, make sure your house wiring complies with the most recent code.
3. Lead Paint
Most older houses were painted with lead paint, which is dangerous because it tends to chip and fall apart. Also, it generates dust, which is really bad for your health. For this issue, hire a certified contractor that manages lead paint to ensure it’s removed entirely and safely.
