What drives the cost of wallpaper removal in Grosse Pointe

  • Drywall versus plaster walls
  • Amount of wall repair and skim coating afterward
  • Whether painting is included
  • Bathrooms, stairwells and tight spaces
  • 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.
