Before you hire in Birmingham
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Birmingham was built around 1960. 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
50% 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 Birmingham building department before work starts.
How to compare floor leveling quotes
- Ask what is causing the unevenness and how they measured it.
- Confirm the flatness tolerance the new flooring requires.
- Ask whether they will pour, grind or fix framing, and why.
- Check the license or business registration and ask for proof of insurance.
- Confirm cure time before flooring can be installed.
