What Makes Baltimore Different
Baltimore is a city of rowhouses, and many were built long before 1950. Lead paint is common on windows, doors, trim and porches, and water damage makes it worse because wet paint peels and flakes. Maryland has its own rules for lead in older rental housing. Before you scrape, sand or demolish anything old, assume lead is present and have it tested.
Rowhouses share walls and roofs, so a leak next door can become your leak. Flat roofs fail at seams and around chimneys, and water can travel along a party wall before it shows up. Basements in older homes take on water in heavy rain and often have old floor drains that back up.
The region gets hurricane remnants, nor’easters and intense summer thunderstorms. Low areas near the harbor, like Fells Point, see tidal flooding, and nearby Ellicott City has flooded badly more than once in sudden storms. Winter freezes also split pipes in rowhouse back walls and unheated additions.

Checking a License in Baltimore
Maryland requires a license from the Maryland Home Improvement Commission for most work on an existing home. Ask for the license number and look it up with the state before you sign. If a job disturbs paint in a home built before 1978, ask whether the crew is certified for lead safe work under the EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting rule. Maryland has no separate mold license, so ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage and mold remediation, and ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance.
