New Construction Code in Pennsylvania

Builders' Response to the Uniform Construction Code

Pennsylvania builders have responded positively to the implementation of the Uniform Construction Code. According to a report by Brian Gafney in the Binghamton, N.Y., Press & Sun-Bulletin, builders recognize the importance of maintaining quality standards despite initial reservations about government intervention. Susquehanna County builder Jack Taylor highlighted the benefits of the code, emphasizing its role in ensuring quality construction and protecting the interests of residents. While acknowledging a learning curve, builders appreciate the code's contribution to legitimizing the rural building industry and enhancing safety standards.
