Price

What drives the cost of mechanics lien in Grosse Pointe

  • Fee structure: flat fee to prepare a lien, hourly for enforcement or defense
  • Amount claimed and number of parties in the payment chain
  • Residential versus commercial project rules
  • Whether notices and sworn statements were handled correctly
  • Whether the lien is enforced in court or settled
  • Recording and court costs, separate from attorney fees
  • The age of the home: the typical Grosse Pointe home was built around 1938, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Grosse Pointe

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Grosse Pointe 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

83% 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 building department before work starts.
