Before you hire in Deerfield Township Lapeer
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Deerfield Township Lapeer was built around 1974. 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.
Mid-century and newer systems
Most homes here date from 1974 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.
Permits: check with the Deerfield Township Lapeer building department before work starts.
