Before you hire in Grosse Pointe Park
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Grosse Pointe Park was built around 1938. 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
87% 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 Grosse Pointe Park building department before work starts.
How to compare utility trenching quotes
- Ask whether they coordinate directly with your plumber, electrician or utility.
- Confirm the depth for each line and who sets it.
- Ask whether boring is an option under drives and walks.
- Confirm who pulls each permit and schedules inspections.
- Check licenses and ask for proof of insurance.
