West Virginia homeowners by age and house age
Table B25035 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) puts the median year built for West Virginia housing at 1976, which means half of the units were built in 1976 or earlier.
The state has 206,431 owner households with a householder aged 65 or older in table B25007 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024). Buyers who place accessibility jobs look at this figure, because older owners often ask for a walk-in shower, a raised toilet or support bars by the tub. It counts households and makes no claim about leads.
Altogether, 545,595 of the 728,655 occupied housing units are owner-occupied in table B25003 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024). Only the owner can agree to a bathroom contract, so requests are confirmed as owner requests before delivery.
Plumber certification and contractor classes in West Virginia
This section is general information, not legal advice. It summarizes official sources as of October 7, 2026; check the current text of each rule before relying on it.
West Virginia certifies plumbers one person at a time. The Division of Labor's plumber certification page (read October 7, 2026) says that since January 1, 2009, no plumber may perform or offer to perform plumbing work in the state without a plumber license from the Division, and it lists three levels: master plumber, journeyman plumber and plumber in training.
The Division's plumber certification FAQ (read October 7, 2026) defines plumbing work as installing water lines, vents and drains inside a building, and says it does not include replacing faucets or washers. It adds that plumbing on a residential project of $5,000 or more, counting the whole contract, requires a contractor license with the plumbing classification.
The Contractor Licensing Board's rule 28CSR2 (effective May 1, 2022) names plumbing contractor among the classifications it examines. The Contractor Licensing Act itself is summarized on leads in West Virginia.
Written contract terms for West Virginia remodels
This section is general information, not legal advice. It summarizes official sources as of October 7, 2026; check the current text of each rule before relying on it.
The Contractor Licensing Board's procedural rule 28CSR4 (effective November 5, 2021) requires a licensee to have a written contract with the owner before starting a project with an aggregate value of $10,000 or more, counting labor and materials from the licensee, subcontractors and the owner. Among the required provisions are a description of the work and materials, the total cost with a payment schedule, start and completion dates, the license number and classifications, and the workers' compensation policy number.
Two provisions in that rule concern changes and insurance. Both parties sign and date a written authorization for any change to the work or price, and both confirm the licensee's disclosure of whether it carries a current general liability policy.
In addition, the FTC's Cooling-Off Rule is a federal three-day cancellation right that reaches some sales made at a customer's home.
What bathroom buyers in West Virginia filter on
- Project type: a faucet or vanity swap needs no plumber certification under the Division's definition, while new drains or supply lines do, so buyers sort requests by scope.
- Project size: buyers whose clients work below or above the contract thresholds can ask for an estimated budget range.
- Owner and age: owner-confirmed requests, with owners 65 and older flagged for accessibility work.
- Home age: a build decade from before 1980 points to older piping behind the walls.
- ZIP code: buyers set the ZIP codes where their installers work.
