Before you hire in Lathrup Village
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Lathrup Village was built around 1955. 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
67% 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 Lathrup Village building department before work starts.

Boiler Repair in Lathrup Village: FAQ
On hot water systems, trapped air is common and bleeding the radiators often helps. On steam systems, failed air vents or pipe pitch problems are usual causes.
Pressure may be too high because of a failed expansion tank or fill valve. Have it checked soon; the relief valve is a safety device.
Boilers and hydronic heating are mechanical work in Michigan, so look for a company with a mechanical contractor license that includes the hydronic heating classification. Check it on the LARA lookup and ask about their steam or hot water experience.
