Before you hire in Ferndale
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Ferndale was built around 1945. 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
76% 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 Ferndale building department before work starts.

How to compare metal roofing quotes
- Ask each roofer how many metal roofs they have installed and for addresses you can see.
- Compare panel type, gauge and finish warranty, not just color.
- Ask how expansion, flashing and snow guards will be handled.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup.
- Confirm who pulls the permit and whether a tear-off is included.

Over a solid deck with underlayment and an insulated attic, most homeowners notice little difference from shingles.
Generally yes. Re-roofing is not exempt from a building permit in Michigan, and in Detroit a roof with two or more existing layers must be torn off before a metal roof goes on.
No. Metal does not make a strike more likely, and a metal roof is noncombustible if lightning does hit.
