Before you hire in Berkley
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Berkley was built around 1949. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.
Older plumbing and sewer lines
78% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.
Permits: check with the Berkley building department before work starts.
How to compare door hanging quotes
- Tell each bidder the number of doors, style and whether trim is staying.
- Ask whether they recommend slabs or prehung units and why.
- Confirm hardware, painting and disposal are in the price.
- Ask about lead-safe practices for painted doors and trim in pre-1978 homes.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and ask for proof of insurance.
