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 exterior drain tile quotes
- Confirm how many walls are included and how deep the excavation goes.
- Compare membrane products and how the pipe will discharge.
- Ask what yard, concrete and landscape restoration is included.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and ask for proof of insurance.
- Confirm who calls MISS DIG 811 and who pulls any permit.
