Pennsylvania's old housing stock and home values
Pennsylvania's distinctive number for flooring is its count of very old homes. The Census Bureau's table B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) puts 1,450,253 housing units in the 1939 or earlier band, the largest band in the state and the second largest such count among the 50 states after New York. The full breakdown follows.
| Year built | Housing units | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 2020 or later | 57,704 | B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) |
| 2010 to 2019 | 298,876 | B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) |
| 2000 to 2009 | 471,924 | B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) |
| 1990 to 1999 | 514,535 | B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) |
| 1980 to 1989 | 559,898 | B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) |

The median owner-occupied home in Pennsylvania is valued at $254,500 in table B25077 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024). Buyers working with installers in a particular price range set their ZIP codes to match.
Pennsylvania owners who moved in recently
Of Pennsylvania's owner households, 430,346 moved in during 2020 or later, in table B25038 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024). The 2024 table starts its newest bands at 2020, so 2020 is the first year counted.
Buyers follow recent movers because owners often replace floors in the first months after closing. The figure counts households in the state; it is not a count of leads.
Owners hold most of the stock: table B25003 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) reports 3,656,971 owner-occupied units among 5,274,853 occupied housing units.
Registration and certification for Pennsylvania floor work
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.
Pennsylvania registers home improvement contractors instead of licensing them. The Insurance Department's release of June 24, 2026 states that home improvement contractors earning more than $5,000 in business per year in Pennsylvania must register with the Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Protection, and tells homeowners to ask for the contractor's HIC number.
Removal work in old houses has a separate rule. The Department of Labor and Industry's contractor licensing page (checked October 7, 2026) says the state certifies contractors and workers that perform asbestos and lead removal services, through its Certification, Accreditation and Licensing Division. The same page notes that the state has no licensure for most construction contractors.
On permits, 34 Pa. Code 403.62(d) (Code current through August 8, 2026) states that an ordinary repair does not require a permit, and lists cutting away a load-bearing wall or removing a structural beam among the work that is not an ordinary repair.
The registration act itself and the three-day rescission period are summarized on leads in Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania flooring lead filters
With so many older homes, Pennsylvania buyers often ask about the home before the material:
- Homeowner status: owners only, so the person requesting can approve the work.
- Material and rooms: hardwood refinishing, carpet, tile, vinyl or laminate, and which rooms.
- Move-in timing: a recent purchase or a long-time owner.
- ZIP code: set to the service area of each installer.

Two of Pennsylvania's six largest metro areas cross state lines: Philadelphia reaches into New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland, and Allentown into New Jersey, so their figures cover the whole metro area.
