What Makes Burlington, Vermont Different
Burlington winters are long and cold, with deep freezes and many freeze and thaw cycles. Pipes in exterior walls, porches and unheated basements freeze and split, and the leak often shows up when things warm up. Ice dams form along the eaves of older homes with little attic insulation, and meltwater backs up under the shingles into ceilings and walls.
Much of the housing is old, including wood frame homes and apartments built long before 1978. Lead paint is common in older Vermont homes, and old plaster, pipe wrap and floor tile may contain asbestos, so test before you tear anything out. Stone and block basements seep during spring melt, and a dehumidifier helps keep mold away.
Lake Champlain rose to a record high in the spring of 2011 and flooded shoreline homes and camps. Heavy summer rain can also flood rivers and low roads across the state. Floodwater from outside is contaminated, and a standard homeowners policy does not cover it. If the heat goes out in winter, open cabinet doors under sinks and let faucets drip until it comes back on.

Checking a License in Burlington
Vermont does not license general contractors the way many states do, but residential contractors must register with the state Office of Professional Regulation for many larger home jobs, and plumbers and electricians need state licenses. Ask for the registration number, check it with the state, and check with your town about permits before rebuild work starts. If you are unsure what a job needs, ask the Vermont Secretary of State’s office or your town. Vermont 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. If the home was built before 1978, ask whether the crew is certified for lead safe renovation.
