Before you hire in Lapeer
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Lapeer was built around 1976. 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.
Pre-war construction
17% of homes predate 1940. Expect plaster walls, balloon framing and possible asbestos in old pipe wrap or floor tile; test before demolition with a licensed asbestos contractor.
Permits: check with the Lapeer building department before work starts.
How to compare aging in place modifications quotes

- Confirm grab bars and rails will be fastened into framing, not drywall anchors alone.
- Ask which items need an electrician, plumber or permit.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and ask for proof of insurance.
- Get product models, finishes and the workmanship guarantee in writing.
