Before you hire in Grosse Pointe Woods
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Grosse Pointe Woods was built around 1953. 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
74% 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 Woods building department before work starts.
How to compare electrical panel upgrade quotes
- Ask each electrician for a load calculation and the recommended service size.
- Confirm the panel brand, number of spaces and breakers included.
- Confirm who schedules the utility disconnect and reconnect and the expected outage window.
- Confirm the permit and inspection are in the quote.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and compare warranties on workmanship.
