Before you hire in Dearborn
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Dearborn was built around 1952. 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
71% 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 Dearborn building department before work starts.
How to compare porch construction quotes
- Ask whether the footings and piers can be saved or must be replaced.
- Get quotes on the same materials, railing style and roof scope.
- Confirm historic district approval if your home is in a district.
- Verify the license on the LARA lookup and the EPA lead-safe firm certification.
- Compare written warranties for materials and workmanship.
