Before you hire in Brighton
Mid-century and newer systems
Most homes here date from 1986 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.
Michigan basements
Freeze-thaw cycles and clay soils make foundation cracks and wet basements common across Metro Detroit. Foundation and sump pump checks belong on every spring list.
Permits: check with the Brighton building department before work starts.
