• With 34% of Pasco's homes built before 1980, many are covered by federal lead rules: any home built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint, and under the EPA's Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) rule, contractors who disturb painted surfaces in those homes must be lead-safe certified by the EPA or an authorized state program. Ask to see the firm's certification.
• With about 105 freezing nights a year, pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces, garages and attics can freeze: insulate them, disconnect hoses in the fall, and know where the main water shut-off is.
